Martial Arts Gym Software
Martial Arts Gym Software Built for the Mat, the Ring, and the Front Desk
Fit Viz martial arts gym software runs the operations side of a fight gym - class booking, member check-ins, payments, and private lessons - plus the one thing no other platform has: round timers and class displays on your gym TVs, with bells your whole room can hear.
Built for BJJ academies, boxing and Muay Thai gyms, karate schools, and MMA facilities. Free booking and payment collection as the starting tier.
Free booking and payments · Stripe/Payroc processing fees only · Free migration
Built for martial arts gyms, not adapted to them
Generic booking tools treat a martial arts gym like a yoga studio with louder music. But a fight gym runs differently: a 6pm fundamentals class, a 7pm advanced class, and open mat after; members on family plans checking in by the door; privates with the head coach booked around team practice; and every session governed by the clock - rounds, rest, bells.
Fit Viz is martial arts gym software where check-in, class structure, private lessons, and the round clock live in one system.
What's included
Everything below ships in the free tier unless marked Professional - complete martial arts software from day one:
- 1.Class booking and schedules. Fundamentals, advanced, kids' classes, open mat, sparring nights - class types with their own capacities and eligibility, on a schedule members book from their phones through class booking.
- 2.Member check-in. Door or front-desk check-in that marks attendance against the roster in real time - who's on the mat tonight, who hasn't been in for three weeks. Attendance history every coach can see.
- 3.Payments, memberships, and drop-ins. Monthly memberships, family plans, class packs, drop-in mat fees for visitors - all collected automatically with retries on failed payments. Stripe/Payroc processing fees only on the free tier; no platform fee.
- 4.Private lessons built in. 1:1 and small-group privates with any coach share the same calendar, payments, and member app as classes - the highest-margin hours in a martial arts gym finally live in the same system as the schedule, not in a text thread.
- 5.Round timers on your gym TVs. The Fit Viz workout timer runs rounds, rest, and bells on the big screen - 3×3:00 boxing rounds, 5-minute BJJ rolls with 1-minute breaks, Tabata conditioning - synced across every display in the room. For dedicated bag-work and sparring formats, the boxing timer presets cover nine disciplines out of the box.
- 6.Class displays. Tonight's structure - warm-up, technique, rolling/sparring blocks - on the workout display so the room runs itself while you coach.
- 7.A branded member app. Booking, check-in, and schedules under your gym's name.
- 8.No consumer marketplace. Your members book your gym in your environment - never shown a competitor between sessions.
Jiu jitsu gym software for BJJ academies
Jiu jitsu gym software has to handle how a BJJ academy actually runs: gi and no-gi classes with separate schedules, open mat that's booked but unstructured, kids' and adults' programs with family billing, and a privates book that's half the head coach's income.
Fit Viz runs all of it - and the roll clock on the TV (5:00 rounds, 1:00 rest, bell) replaces the phone-on-a-chair at every BJJ gym.
Drop-in mat fees for traveling grapplers collect at check-in. That's jiu jitsu gym software scoped to how academies actually run - not a generic calendar with a gi photo on it.
Boxing gym software for striking gyms
Boxing gym software lives and dies by the clock. Fit Viz puts the round timer where it belongs - on the wall, big enough to see mid-combination, with bells and clack-clack warnings the whole floor hears - while the same platform books classes, runs memberships, and schedules pad-work privates.
Muay Thai, kickboxing, and boxing class formats each keep their own round presets; conditioning circuits pull from the same workout timer library - one martial arts software platform across every discipline.
The honest comparison
Where other martial arts software is strong:
Gymdesk and Kicksite specialize in automated belt and rank progression tracking - if gradings automation is your #1 requirement, they've earned that reputation.
Wodify brings the deepest jiu-jitsu-specific member management at add-on pricing.
Zen Planner has long martial-arts roots in the Daxko family.
What none of them have: the class floor. No competitor's martial arts gym software puts round timers, bells, and class structure on your gym TVs as a native feature - that layer is Fit Viz only, alongside free booking and payments that the others charge $75-160/month to start. (Running CrossFit, Hyrox or hybrid MMA-conditioning too? The Fit Viz CrossFit software & Hyrox Software page covers that side of the house.)

Frequently asked questions
Martial arts gym software manages the business of a fight gym - class scheduling and booking, member check-ins, memberships and payments, private lesson booking - and, in Fit Viz's case, the class floor itself: round timers, bells, and session structure on the gym's TVs.
For BJJ academies, the jiu jitsu gym software shortlist is Fit Viz (free booking, check-ins, privates, and the roll clock on TV), Wodify (deep jiu-jitsu member management), and Gymdesk (belt-tracking specialization). Fit Viz is the only one with a free starting tier and native floor timers.
Yes - round timers with bells on your gym TVs (3×3:00, custom rounds, nine discipline presets), class booking, memberships, drop-ins, and pad-work privates in one platform. The timer layer is native, not an integration - boxing gym software with the bell built in.
Not as an automated grading module - Gymdesk and Kicksite specialize there. Fit Viz tracks attendance history per member (the input most gradings decisions rest on) and keeps notes on member records; the platform's focus is operations plus the class floor - the part of martial arts software everyone else skips.
Yes - class booking, check-in, payments (Stripe/Payroc processing fees only), memberships, and private lesson booking are free with no time limit. Professional adds the branded app, full display suite, and multi-location.
Yes - 1:1 and small-group privates share the calendar, payments, and app with classes, bookable against any coach's availability.
Yes - family plans with shared billing, kids' class eligibility rules, and per-member check-in on one account.
Yes - class types keep their own schedules, capacities, and timer presets; one member database, one app, one billing relationship per family.
The class booked, the mat checked in, the bell on time
