If you want walkie-talkie style live voice, Voxer is still the specialist. If you want clients to pay you and then send voice notes in a private space that sits next to your programme, a coaching platform fits better. On WithMe, a 1:1 Coaching product gives each client a private chat with recorded audio and video, shared goals and billing in one place, and a Custom Product can sell a set number of messages.
WithMe is $25 per month billed annually (UK £25), with a 14-day trial and 0% WithMe commission. Stripe and PayPal fees still apply. More than 8,000 creators use it.
Why do coaches look for a Voxer alternative?
- Payment lives somewhere else. Voxer is a messenger, so you invoice or take payment in a separate tool and add people by hand.
- Clients sit next to friends and family. Coaching chats mix with personal threads, which makes boundaries harder.
- Your programme lives elsewhere. Workouts, lessons and files sit in another app, so clients switch between tools.
- Message history on the free plan is kept for 30 days, which is short for a long coaching relationship.
What does Voxer cost now?
Checked on 11 November 2026, Voxer's pricing page lists its paid personal plan as Pro + AI. It costs $49.99 per user per year, shown as $4.17 a month, or $4.99 per user a month for the first 3 months and then $7.99 a month.
Pro + AI adds extended message storage, Walkie Talkie mode, voice-to-text transcription, AI message and chat summaries, and message translation. The free Personal plan includes live and recorded voice, text, photos and videos, group chats of up to 500 people and message storage for 30 days. Business is $6 per user a month, billed yearly at $72.
How do the alternatives compare?
WhatsApp and Telegram: free, and most clients already have them. Voice notes are easy. But there is no checkout that grants or removes access, so payment and access are managed by hand, and coaching sits in the same app as personal chats.
Marco Polo: a video messaging app that is free to use. Checked on 11 November 2026, Marco Polo Plus is $9.99 a month or $79.99 a year for one person, and an Unlimited Storage plan is $7.99 a month or $47.99 a year. It suits video check-ins, but it has no payment or programme tools.
Practice Better: practice management for health and wellness practitioners. Checked on 11 November 2026, the free Sprout plan covers 3 clients without messaging. Starter is $25 a month billed annually or $35 monthly for 10 clients with one-to-one messaging, and Professional is $59 a month billed annually or $69 monthly for 300 clients with group messaging. Payments are built in and powered by Stripe. It suits health and wellness practitioners who want a dedicated practice tool.
WithMe: a creator hub with 1:1 coaching chat, paid messages, coaching calls, courses, community and email in one place, for $25 per month billed annually (UK £25), with 0% WithMe commission.
How does async voice coaching work on WithMe?
- Each 1:1 Coaching client gets a private chat with you. You do not need to be online together: they send an update, and you reply when you are ready.
- Both of you can record audio or video in the chat, or upload images, video, audio and PDFs, and share YouTube, Loom or Vimeo videos and Google Doc or Sheet links.
- Shared goals that you and the client can both see and update, with earlier versions kept.
- The other side is emailed when a new update arrives, and you can search the conversation and pin important posts.
- Add Included Products such as a course or your community, and bundle a Coaching Call so clients book live sessions without paying for each one.
Can you charge per voice note?
Yes. A Custom Product with Message delivery sells a set number of messages, one-off or monthly. Buyers can send text, images, voice notes they record or upload, and video. Each message they send uses one from their allowance, and your replies are free.
This suits Q&A access and feedback, such as 10 voice questions a month. For full coaching with goals and calls, use 1:1 Coaching.
Which one should you choose?
- Choose Voxer if live push-to-talk voice and transcription matter most, and you already handle payment elsewhere.
- Choose WhatsApp or Telegram for a handful of clients you already know, where free matters more than structure.
- Choose Practice Better if you are a health or wellness practitioner and want a dedicated practice tool with built-in client messaging.
- Choose WithMe if you sell coaching to your audience and want payment, the private chat, calls, courses and community in one hub.
How do you move your voice coaching to WithMe?
- Add a 1:1 Coaching product and describe what the programme includes, such as replies within 24 hours on weekdays.
- Choose recurring, a one-time fee or a payment plan, and set the price.
- Turn on "Enable Apply Process?" if you want to approve clients first.
- Add Included Products, such as a course or your community.
- Send current clients the link and ask them to post their next update in the new chat.
What is not included?
There is no live walkie-talkie mode, no voice-to-text transcription and no AI summaries of conversations. There are no video calls inside the chat: live sessions run through a Coaching Call on Google Meet or Zoom. There are no check-in forms and no setting to cap how many clients can join.
How much does WithMe cost?
WithMe is $25 per month billed annually (UK £25), with a 14-day trial and 0% WithMe commission. Stripe and PayPal fees still apply. Free migration of up to 10 GB of your courses and members comes with the yearly plan. One plan covers courses, memberships, community, coaching, webinars and digital products.
