ColibriOS

A Momence alternative for practitioners who are not running a gym.

Momence is built for studios, gyms, spas and dance schools: class schedules, packs, a branded app, staff and payroll reports. If your work is sessions, retreats, courses and a membership on your own website, ColibriOS is shaped for that, and it keeps your books while it does it.

If any of this sounds familiar

  • The free plan takes a percentage of every sale from you and from your client on top of card fees.
  • The plan that removes the fees and unlocks the inbox, staff and reporting is a custom package.
  • Retreats, 1:1 programs and courses with student portals are not what a gym schedule is shaped for.
  • Reports tell you what came in; expenses, mileage and the tax report are still yours.

ColibriOS and Momence, side by side

Momence is booking and payment software for studios, gyms, spas and dance schools, with class and appointment scheduling, memberships and packs, an on-demand library, a branded app and staff tools.

When Momence is the better choice

A comparison that says we win every row is not one you should trust. Here is where Momence genuinely does more.

A free plan to start on

Basic costs nothing a month; you pay a percentage only when money moves. A brand-new studio with little revenue pays almost nothing. ColibriOS's Free plan covers your website, your contacts and 5 booked sessions a month; classes and memberships are on Group.

A branded app and an on-demand library

Custom branded app options and an on-demand video library are part of the product. ColibriOS is a website and a portal, and sells recorded content as courses.

Staff management and payroll reports

Momence manages staff and produces payroll reports for a team paid by the class. ColibriOS schedules staff but does not do payroll.

Source, checked August 2026

A published price with nothing per sale

Solo is $116 a month, Group $297, School $597, on the pricing page. Payments go through your own Stripe at your processor's standard rate and ColibriOS adds no percentage, no per-client fee and no custom package to unlock the basics.

Built for how a practice sells

1:1 sessions with intake forms and waivers. Workshops, classes and multi-day retreats with capacity, waitlists, deposits and check-in. Memberships and class packs. Courses with student portals and certificates, and applications for trainings. One client record through all of it.

Your own website and list

An editable website on your own domain with landing pages, sign-up forms and funnels wired to the same CRM your clients are in. Newsletters, campaigns and text messages go out from there. Your list is yours, exportable any time.

Bookkeeping, not only reporting

Every booking, membership and course sale is income when it lands. Connect your bank and expenses arrive on their own, categorized under Schedule C categories; mileage is tracked at the official IRS rate. A year-end report by Schedule C category at year end, which is the piece a studio system leaves to you.

Questions, answered

Is ColibriOS cheaper than Momence?

It depends on what you sell. Momence's Basic plan is free but takes 5% from you and 4% from your client on payments, and its Pro plan is $60 a month with 2.5%; ColibriOS starts at $116 with no percentage. Selling more than about $2,200 a month, the flat price wins; selling less, Momence's free plan may.

Does ColibriOS have a branded app?

No. ColibriOS is a website on your own domain and a web portal for clients and students. Momence offers custom branded app options.

Can I run multi-day retreats?

Yes, on Group: retreats with capacity, waitlists, deposits and balances, rooms, attendee portals and check-in. Retreats are not something Momence's site describes.

Does it do staff scheduling and payroll?

Group includes multi-staff scheduling. ColibriOS does not produce payroll reports; if you pay a team of instructors by the class, that is something Momence covers and ColibriOS does not.

How do I move over?

Import contacts from a CSV; they arrive with notes and tags. Recreate memberships and packs, and invite members to re-subscribe through your own Stripe. Export everything again whenever you like.
