    Frequently Asked Questions

    How does pricing compare between MacroFuel and Foodzilla?

    MacroFuel uses flat monthly pricing: free (5 clients), $39/mo (Starter), $89/mo (Pro) — all with unlimited clients on paid plans. Foodzilla charges a base price plus per-client fees, which means your costs grow with every new client.

    Does MacroFuel have a client app like Foodzilla?

    MacroFuel delivers plans as branded PDFs rather than through a client app. This means clients don't need to download anything — they get a professional document they can view on any device.

    Can MacroFuel track wearable data?

    Not currently. If wearable integration (Fitbit, Apple Health) is critical to your workflow, Foodzilla has the edge there. MacroFuel focuses on the meal planning and macro coaching workflow.

    Which is better for a growing coaching business?

    If you're adding clients regularly, MacroFuel's flat pricing becomes significantly more affordable over time. With Foodzilla, each new client increases your monthly cost.
