Fitness & Gym Management: AI Visibility Ranking

Membership, scheduling, and billing software for gyms, studios, and fitness businesses. Right now, Mindbody is the brand AI assistants recommend most, with a Visibility Score of 68 and the #1 spot in 44% of answers. Head-to-head: Mindbody vs Glofox →

These rankings are measured from what the three models know from training, not a live web search. When the models DO search the web, see which sources they cite. Methodology.

Mindbody dominates fitness management; everyone else competes for silver.

Mindbody is the rare case where dominance language is genuinely warranted: a 32-point gap over Glofox and a 75% mention rate make it the default answer across all three models. The pack from Glofox down to Pike13 is surprisingly compressed, separated by fewer than 18 points, yet none of them cracks double-digit first-pick rates with any consistency. The most striking footnote is Pike13, which scores zero from both ChatGPT and Gemini but earns a 56 from Claude, a split that wide signals Claude is drawing on a very different content or training signal than its peers.

The ± under each score is the reliability band: how much the number would move if we re-ran the identical measurement. It is tight because each prompt is sampled multiple times. It is not the same as how much the ranking depends on which prompts we ask — a separate, wider figure shown on hover.

Just below the cutoff: TrueCoach (8.2), Walla (6.5), AWS (5.6), ABC Fitness (5.3), Microsoft Entra ID (5.3). 76 brands were scored in this category; the leaderboard shows the top 15.

Visibility Score: position-weighted presence across all measured answers, 0 to 100. A score of 100 means the brand was the first recommendation in every answer. Every point in a trend line is a live monthly measurement; there is no modeled or backfilled history. Full methodology.

Openness 32/100: the share of this category's recommendation weight not held by the leader.
