PushPress, Inc., a trailblazing fitness studio management software company, announced it has successfully raised $11 million in Series A funding led by Altos Ventures, with participation from Mucker Capital.
Founded in 2013, PushPress is on a mission to make gym management the easiest part of running a fitness business through innovative integrations and key products like Core, Grow, and Train. Built on an ethos of “help first,” PushPress places an exceptional focus on prioritizing client needs, listening to feedback, and using it as the impetus for new and innovative products.
The team is comprised of software professionals who recognized a significant gap in the software market and opened fitness businesses to better understand the landscape.

The Series A funding will allow PushPress to enhance its ability to solve clients’ pain points, in what the company’s founder, Dan Uyemura now refers to as, “Help first, bigger and faster.” This pivotal milestone for the company means PushPress can improve client education and ultimately help clients run better fitness businesses.
“These funds will allow us to invest a tremendous amount of money into helping our clients,” said Uyemura. “It gives us the opportunity to continue building better products, faster and more consistently.”
Specifically, PushPress will focus on improving automated lead engagement with PushPress Grow, increasing community management with PushPress Core, expanding workout tracking and delivery with PushPress Train, and developing integrations with other leading applications to help fitness business owners access the best solutions in the industry.
PushPress is also excited to continue further development of its artificial intelligence product, Pressly, which it announced in March at the company’s PowerUp Event. Pressly will help fitness businesses access and leverage powerful data, as well as automate many of the executable tasks to drive businesses toward greater success.
