FlexCademy vs THENN·OS

Both products collect structured information before the season schedule is finalized. FlexCademy applications can capture configured location choices, weekly availability and frequency, group-size and one-to-one preferences, levels, and custom answers. THENN·OS documents a school-specific survey for availability, German playing classification, preferred partners, optional trainer preference, special groups, and notes.[F01][F02][C03]

The key distinction is how groups are proposed. FlexCademy's owner-initiated AI workflow validates student, trainer, court, level, age, time, overlap, and coverage constraints before applying groups to an empty season-location schedule; owners can edit afterward, but this is not a promise of an optimal result or pre-application approval.[F01][F02]

THENN·OS explicitly says its group formation is not AI-driven. Staff filter by availability and playing level, view preferred partners, drag players between groups, leave exceptions in a pool, and see conflicts while adjusting. The school confirms when grouping is final. An operator that prioritizes manual, inspectable control may prefer this documented model; one seeking an initial constraint-validated proposal may prefer FlexCademy's model.[C03]

Both connect finalized groups to trainers, courts, times, and calendars. FlexCademy groups generate future sessions and support operational edits across configured locations. THENN·OS documents trainer suitability and availability warnings, court assignment, drag-and-drop scheduling, overlap warnings, and multiple locations with location-specific courts, prices, and opening hours.[F01][F02][C01][C03][C08]

THENN·OS has the broader documented public booking surface. Players and parents can book court or trainer slots against real-time availability and location/time-based court prices, pay online or use an invoice path, receive an email, and subscribe to dates by iCal. Prospects can use a no-login trial-booking page with email verification.[C04]

FlexCademy's verified self-booking path is narrower: an enrolled student chooses an available trainer for an eligible released training slot, receives a quote, confirms, and triggers student and trainer confirmation emails. This should not be interpreted as public court rental. Academies that sell court inventory directly should test THENN·OS's court rules; academies that release selected training capacity should test FlexCademy's eligibility rules.[F01][F02][F03][C04]

THENN·OS documents a waitlist where players enter preferred times and staff allocate a newly available place with one click. FlexCademy's camp workflow instead has configured capacity and a waitlisted set ordered by paid confirmation. THENN·OS lists camps and parent-side camp booking, but its inspected pages do not explain camp capacity, automated promotion, or paid-confirmation priority.[C04][C01][C06][F01]

Cancellation handling is a THENN·OS distinction. A school can define windows and charge levels; the published workflow returns value to a wallet or as a payout and releases the slot. FlexCademy implements financial credits, credit memos, customer credit, and eligible Stripe refunds, but this comparison does not assign it a configurable lesson-cancellation policy engine.[C04][F01][F02]

Family access overlaps closely. FlexCademy lets one browser-based account manage multiple student profiles alongside separate owner, admin, and trainer areas. THENN·OS parents switch between children's profiles and manage schedules, bookings, invoices, payments, absences, and trainer messages; it describes four manager, trainer, player, and parent views.[F03][C01][C06]

FlexCademy's trainer operations include configured availability and rates, group and camp assignments, replacement conflict checks, student and trainer attendance, and monthly payout reports. Its owner dashboard surfaces applications, schedules, counts, invoice state, attendance review, and setup status, with operational XLSX and CSV exports. Neither payroll execution nor predictive analytics is claimed.[F01][F03]

THENN·OS gives more public detail to on-court training content. Its installable trainer PWA shows the daily schedule, students, notes, attendance, absences, and push changes. Trainers can build an individual player plan from an exercise library, specify sets, repetitions, duration, and notes, and track exercise progress across the season. FlexCademy's approved evidence does not establish an equivalent exercise-plan library.[C05]

Delivery labels matter: THENN·OS calls the trainer experience an app, but specifies a Progressive Web App opened in a browser or added to the home screen without an app store. FlexCademy's verified role areas are also browser-based, but native apps and push notifications are not approved FlexCademy claims. Neither product receives a native iOS or Android checkmark here.[C05][F03]

Communication breadth differs. FlexCademy confirms application and schedule emails, targeted newsletters with delivery state, training reminders, and invoice reminders. THENN·OS documents customizable booking, cancellation, trial, and season-survey email templates, push notifications, and parent-trainer messages. SMS is not established by the inspected THENN·OS sources and is not approved for FlexCademy.[F01][C02][C05][C06]

THENN·OS documents real-time views for utilization, trainer hours, cancellation rates, and payment receipts plus CSV exports for monthly metrics, booking details and payment status, and revenue. FlexCademy's approved scope is an operational dashboard and named exports rather than advanced predictive analytics. Compare definitions, permissions, date filters, and export columns in a live evaluation.[C02][F01]

Both products support operational invoicing and configured Stripe payment paths. THENN·OS documents SEPA debit, card, Apple Pay, and Google Pay through Stripe Connect, direct payout to the school's account, wallet credit, configurable cancellation outcomes, and transfer of an invoice draft to Lexware Office. Processor fees still apply.[C02][C04][C08]

FlexCademy supports invoices tied to academy activity, installment chains, eligible Stripe checkout and refunds, credit memos, customer credits, overdue views, and reminders subject to workflow rules. Its Swiss-specific scope additionally includes eligible QR invoices, CAMT.054 payment reconciliation, and configured TWINT checkout; this does not make it regulated accounting or general-ledger software.[F01][F02]

The THENN·OS pages reviewed publish German-market euro prices net of 19% VAT and list Lexware Office, but do not establish CHF pricing, Swiss QR invoices, TWINT, CAMT.054 reconciliation, or Jugend+Sport records. This is an evidence gap, not proof that those capabilities cannot be configured, so Swiss academies should request written answers.[C01][C02][C04][C08]

FlexCademy stores J+S-related student data and attendance records, but automatic J+S upload or synchronization is not claimed. A Swiss evaluation should separate record capture from federation submission and ask both vendors to demonstrate the exact export or handoff required.[F01][F06]

FlexCademy publishes Starter at CHF 149 per month plus CHF 490 onboarding and Academy Pro at CHF 349 per month plus CHF 990 onboarding; Custom is discussed separately. The public pricing page does not state tax treatment or billing commitment, so neither is assumed.[F04]

THENN·OS publishes one all-feature plan from €89 per month net for one trainer and one location. Trainers 2–10 add €14 each, trainers 11–25 add €4 each, trainer pricing is capped at €275, and locations 2–15 add €24 each; the site says additional trainers and locations beyond those thresholds are included. Monthly billing is cancelable monthly; optional annual billing gives two months without charge, has a 12-month term and renewal, and can be canceled or changed up to one month before expiry.[C01][C08]

THENN·OS also publishes no setup fee, a 30-day money-back policy, unlimited players and parent accounts, and free founder-led onboarding and migration. FlexCademy's price uses a different currency, package structure, and onboarding model. Compare tax, trainer and location count, processor fees, accounting handoff, Swiss finance, support, migration, and required features rather than ranking the entry amounts.[C01][C08][F04]

The THENN·OS migration page documents CSV or Excel intake, field mapping, a private sandbox import for customer validation, live trainer training, cutover, user onboarding, and post-cutover contact. It also distinguishes direct, adapted, and rebuilt data and says migration is free where a standard CSV export is available. These are vendor-published scope statements, not a guarantee for every source system or dataset.[C07]

THENN·OS says direct email support usually responds within 48 hours and offers chat, form, email, and optional calls; this wording is not treated as a contractual response or resolution SLA. FlexCademy offers a personal workflow demo and publishes onboarding paths but no standard migration duration or support response target. Ask both vendors to put dataset, owners, validation, timeline, retained history, support channels, and service commitments in writing.[C08][C09][F04][F05]
