Where each one falls short
Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.
Kitman Labs
- It produces no data itself, so a club without wearables, screening protocols or a testing routine buys an empty platform and blames the software.
- Implementation is a project rather than a purchase, involving historical data migration and staff process change, and it commonly takes a season to reach useful adoption.
- Pricing is organisational and multi-year, which puts it out of reach of clubs below a certain budget regardless of how much they would benefit.
- Holding injury and treatment records makes the platform a store of health data about identified athletes, so the club needs role separation, retention rules and a process for responding when a player requests their record.
- The acquisition of a competing athlete management platform leaves two products with overlapping purpose under one owner, and buyers on either should get a written answer on long-term development before committing.
RP Diet
- Requires users to commit to detailed macro tracking, which is time-consuming for some athletes
- Limited meal delivery partnerships compared to competitors

Answered from the vendors’ own pages
Kitman Labs: Do we need wearables to use it?
Not strictly, but most of the value comes from combining feeds. With only manual questionnaire entry the platform is an expensive form.
RP Diet: What does the RP Diet app cost?
The RP Diet app costs $14.99 per month and provides personalized macro targets, meal plans, and nutrition guidance based on Renaissance Periodization's science-based approach.
SourceKitman Labs: Can coaches see medical notes?
Access is role-based and should be configured so they cannot. Getting that separation right is a governance decision, not a default, and it is worth auditing after go-live.
RP Diet: Does RP Diet integrate with training programs?
Yes. RP Diet is designed to integrate with training phases, adjusting calorie and macro targets as training variables change throughout a structured calendar.
SourceKitman Labs: What happened with Smartabase?
Kitman Labs acquired the company behind it, putting two competing athlete management platforms under one owner. Ask which one your contract commits you to and where development is going.
