RainMaker Review

RainMaker now trades as Zivvy, and it prices weekly rather than monthly: plans run from $49 a week to $500 a week, with a $47 trial to start. So how much RainMaker costs is best understood by multiplying: $49 a week is roughly $212 a month, and the top plan is a serious commitment aimed at studios chasing aggressive growth. The weekly framing is unusual, and worth converting before you compare it to a monthly rival.

RainMaker, under the Zivvy brand, is growth and management software for martial arts schools and studios, leaning hard on marketing and member growth. It combines the operational tools a school needs with a heavy sales-and-marketing engine, and the weekly pricing reflects a platform sold on the return it promises rather than a flat monthly fee.

The Verdict in One Screen

RainMaker (Zivvy) is a growth-focused studio platform with weekly pricing that climbs steeply. It suits schools chasing marketing-led growth more than budget operators.

Two dates for the record. This review was first published 11 August 2026 and last checked on 12 August 2026. RainMaker now operates as Zivvy, and its plans are priced by the week, so convert to monthly before comparing.

What RainMaker Actually Is

RainMaker, now Zivvy, is a growth platform first and a management tool second. It handles the school admin, attendance, classes, ranks, registration, but its pitch centers on marketing and member acquisition, the "Monster Growth" framing of turning a school into a bigger business. It is built for the owner who wants software to drive new members, not just track existing ones.

What the platform covers, per its feature listing:

• Attendance and class management
• Rank management
• Event management and online registration
• Scheduling
• Marketing and growth tooling

The marketing-and-growth engine is the differentiator. Where a plain school tool stops at admin, RainMaker leans into lead generation and member growth, which is why it prices like a growth investment rather than a utility.

The Pricing: By the Week, Climbing Steeply

Here is the shape, converted for clarity.

The weekly framing is the thing to convert. At $49 a week, the entry plan is roughly $212 a month, already above many all-in-one rivals, and the top plan runs into the thousands monthly. So how do you judge it? Weigh the cost against the new members the growth engine is meant to bring in, since a platform priced this way lives or dies on the return it drives. A $47 trial lets you see the tools before the weekly billing starts, and you should convert every plan to a monthly figure before you line it up against a rival.

Where RainMaker Falls Short

No platform is right for everyone, and RainMaker's edges are worth naming.

The pricing is steep and weekly. Converted to monthly, even the entry plan tops many rivals, and the weekly framing can make the cost feel smaller than it is, so a school should do the multiplication before committing.

It is a growth bet, not a utility. RainMaker earns its price only if its marketing engine actually drives new members, so a school that just wants simple management pays for growth tooling it may not use.

The rebrand adds confusion. Operating as both RainMaker and Zivvy, the platform can be hard to pin down, and a buyer should know the two names refer to the same product.

And it is aimed upmarket. The pricing and the growth focus suit an ambitious, well-resourced school, not a small budget-conscious dojo.

Who Should Actually Buy It

Line it up and the fit is clear. RainMaker (Zivvy) is a choice for a martial arts school or studio serious about marketing-led growth and willing to invest at a growth-platform price. If its acquisition engine brings in enough new members to cover the weekly cost, the platform can pay for itself; that is the bet it asks you to make.

It is a weaker choice for a budget school that just wants simple monthly management, or for an owner uncomfortable with weekly billing that climbs into the thousands. Those buyers should look at a flat-fee management rival.

Our read: a growth-focused platform priced like a growth investment, held back by steep weekly pricing and a rebrand that muddies its identity. Convert the weekly rate to monthly, weigh it against the members it is meant to win you, and take the $47 trial before you commit. Rated 7.2/10 on that balance of growth ambition and cost.
