mmaGPT vs Kayyo (Now Internet Fight League): What to Use Instead

Update, October 13, 2026: Kayyo is no longer a training app. Its App Store listing now reads "Internet Fight League", a live combat sports app where viewers score bouts in real time (App Store). If you used Kayyo for technique feedback, mmaGPT reviews your own sparring, bag work or drilling clip and marks each flaw with a video timestamp and a drill to fix it; your first session is free. For guided striking rounds, see the best MMA training apps of 2026. The comparison below describes Kayyo as it was before the relaunch.

mmaGPT and Kayyo are both AI tools for combat sports, but they solve different problems. mmaGPT grades footage of the training you already do. Kayyo generates and guides the workout itself.

Core focus of each platform

mmaGPT is built around uploading your own sparring, bag work, or drilling footage and getting back a structured breakdown: the highest-impact correction, why it matters, and a drill to fix it, calibrated to your discipline and skill level across 11 disciplines.

Kayyo is described as an AI-powered MMA training app where "your team of AI MMA coaches" builds personalized training plans and exercises, with video demonstrations, progress tracking, and clan-based competitions against friends 1. Kayyo's core AI scanning, progression plan, and results require a subscription 1. Kayyo also runs a related app, Kick by KAYYO, focused specifically on AI kickboxing analysis of uploaded training video 3.

The key difference: guided workout vs. footage grading

This is the real distinction between the two tools. Kayyo's flagship experience is a guided workout: you pick a discipline and difficulty, and the app generates audio-cued rounds and exercises to follow along with, plus a leveling and clan system to keep you engaged over time 1.

mmaGPT does not generate the workout for you. It analyzes footage of a workout, sparring round, or drilling session you already recorded, and hands back specific technical feedback on what you did and what to fix next. If you already train at a gym or with a partner and want feedback on your actual technique, that is a different job than being guided through a structured session from scratch.

Getting started and pricing

mmaGPT's first session is free with full feedback. Paid plans run $19/month for 8 sessions, $29 for 16, and $49 for 45.

Kayyo is a free download, but the app description states that AI scanning, the progression plan, and results require a subscription 1. Kick by KAYYO separately offers a 3-day free trial before converting to a paid subscription 3.

Choosing based on your goals

Choose mmaGPT if you already spar, drill, or hit pads and want an outside eye to grade that specific footage and tell you the one thing to fix next, across 11 disciplines, from any device without installing anything.

Choose Kayyo if you want an app to generate the workout itself, guide you through it with audio cues, and keep you motivated with progress levels and social competition.

Many athletes could reasonably use both: Kayyo to structure a solo session, and mmaGPT to grade the footage that session produces. For the wider category, see the best AI coaching apps for combat sports.

FAQ

Does Kayyo analyze my own sparring footage?

Kayyo's core app is centered on generating guided workouts rather than analyzing your own footage. Its companion app, Kick by KAYYO, is specifically built to analyze uploaded kickboxing training video 3.

Does mmaGPT tell me what workout to do?

No. mmaGPT works from footage you already recorded and tells you what to fix and how to drill it, rather than generating the session itself.

Is mmaGPT available as a native app?

Not yet. It runs in the browser on iPhone, Android, and desktop today, and you can add it to your home screen. A native app is in development.

Which is cheaper to start?

mmaGPT's first session is free. Kayyo is a free download, but its AI scanning and progression features require a subscription to unlock 1.
