// COMPARISONS //

How IronLedger compares. Honestly.

Every comparison here names something the other app does better. A comparison you cannot trust is worth less than no comparison at all, and an unfair one gets contradicted by a better source.

// THE SHORT ANSWER //

Which lifting app should you use?

It depends on who writes your program. If you want the app to decide, Fitbod or JuggernautAI will do that better than IronLedger ever will. If you want a large community, Hevy has one. If you want a catalogue of ready-made programs, Boostcamp has far more. IronLedger is for lifters who already have a plan, record RPE or RIR on every set, and want the app to explain its suggestions rather than hand down decisions. It is free, with no paid tier.

Competitor pricing and features change without notice. Every figure below is dated and linked to its source. Check the vendor before relying on a number.Per-set effort tracking is not an IronLedger advantage: Boostcamp ships RPE and RIR as free per-set fields, and Fitbod records RIR to feed its generator. “Not documented” means we could not find a published spreadsheet-import workflow, not that one is impossible.

Try it yourself, it costs nothing.

Nothing here is locked behind a trial, so the fastest way to compare is to run a week in both.
