The hardest part of running a gym isn’t filling the room in January: it’s keeping it full in March. Most new members drift away long before they see results, and a lapsed member is a cancelled membership.
- New members lose motivation within weeks and quietly stop showing up.
- Punch cards and points programs are easy to ignore: there’s nothing real on the line.
- You can’t see who’s slipping until they’ve already cancelled.
- Referral and challenge programs fizzle because nobody is held accountable.
How Cadoo solves it
Real commitment, real accountability
Your members put a commitment deposit on hitting a goal (daily pushups, a step target, a plank hold) with friends and fellow members. Money on the line is the strongest motivator there is, and it keeps them walking through your doors.
Cheat-proof, CadooVision-verified results
Every rep is counted and form-scored by Cadoo’s AI from the phone camera; steps come straight from Apple Health or Google Health Connect. Nobody can fake a win, so your challenges stay fair and your members trust the outcome.
Leagues, leaderboards and shareable wins
Leagues, weekly leaderboards, and shareable highlight clips turn your gym into a community that competes together, and every clip a member posts is free, verified marketing for your brand.
Frequently asked questions
How does Cadoo help gyms with retention?
Cadoo gives members a reason to keep showing up: accountability, CadooVision-verified fitness games with friends. Accountability and a real commitment keep members engaged between visits, which is what turns a new signup into a long-term member.
Do members need special equipment?
No. Members use their own phone: the camera counts and form-scores reps, and steps read from Apple Health or Google Health Connect. There’s nothing for your gym to install.
How do I set up a game for my gym?
You can launch a branded game for your members through cadoo.games/cyoc, or email Tim@cadoo.io and we’ll set it up with you.
