GETTING STARTEDSet Up Your Coach ProfileYou do this in the browser, with nothing to install. Create your Klettra account, then create your coach profile: your bio, your photo, and what you actually coach. That lands you in the Coach Studio, where a short setup list on the dashboard tracks whatever is still open, including connecting Stripe so you can take payments. The list disappears once you're set up.
Step-by-step guide
PAYMENTS & PRICINGGet Paid Through Stripe ConnectKlettra uses Stripe Connect so you get paid directly, with no middleman holding your money. You connect your account from the setup list in the Coach Studio, and it takes a few minutes. You choose your pricing model per program: free, one-time purchase, or monthly subscription. Clients purchase on the web through Stripe checkout, bypassing app store fees entirely. You can also create promo codes and manage discounts from your dashboard.

TRAINING PLANSBuild Structured Week-by-Week ProgramsTraining plans are the core program format, built in the Coach Studio in your browser. You define named phases like "Foundation" and "Peak Performance", each spanning multiple weeks. Within each day, add any combination of five activity types: exercises from a 500+ template library with progressive overload, climbing sessions, technique drills, coach videos, and real gym routes. If the plan already exists in a document somewhere, hand it to the assistant and it comes back as a draft program for you to approve. Clients follow the schedule inside Klettra with clear daily workouts.

SELF-PACED PROGRAMSCreate Courses Clients Complete at Their Own SpeedSelf-paced programs are the perfect format for content creators. There's no weekly schedule, so clients work through activities in order, at their own pace. Build interactive series that mix video lessons with exercises, strength tests, and climbing activities. It's more than uploading videos. You're creating a guided, hands-on experience. Drag and drop to set the sequence in the studio, and clients see a clear numbered path to follow.

1-ON-1 COACHINGOffer Personal Coaching With Monthly SubscriptionsThis is the premium coaching model. A climber subscribes to your coaching service and fills out a detailed intake questionnaire covering goals, current grade, injury history, availability, and training preferences. You then build them a personalized training plan in the studio, adjusting it week by week based on their progress. When you update their plan, they get an instant push notification with your personal message. You follow each client throughout their journey with ongoing adjustments and coaching notes.

THE CLIENT EXPERIENCEYour Clients Train Inside the App They Already UseUnlike standalone coaching platforms, your training plans land inside Klettra, the same app your clients use to log climbs, track sessions, and browse routes. They see their weekly schedule, complete workouts, and track progress all in one place. You can even assign real gym routes from their specific gym, with per-route coaching notes. No switching between apps, no friction.
ORGANIZATIONSRun Coaching Under Your BrandIf you run a climbing gym or coaching collective, create an organization to manage everything under one brand. Invite coaches with role-based access (Owner, Admin, Coach), and their profiles display as "Coach Name from Your Organization" on the marketplace. All revenue flows to the organization's Stripe account, and content ownership stays with the org even when coaches leave.
