Bolster (CostCertified): $1,999/yr coaching add-on now bundled into Pro/Premium
What happened
Between the Aug 10, 2026 and Aug 17, 2026 captures of Bolster's pricing page, Pulse recorded one change: $1,999/yr 1:1 coaching + custom data entry add-on discontinued for Essentials; folded into Pro (3x sessions included) and Premium (unlimited coaching, dedicated account manager, custom data entry now included). Pulse files it as a packaging change (add-on change) with a neutral direction. Pulse's latest capture (Nov 2, 2026) lists Core at $155, Pro at $399, Premium at $583.25 and Additional Users at $16.
It lands 28 days after Bolster's previous change, "Bolster drops Premium's fixed 10-user cap for flexible 3+ users" (Jul 20, 2026). Before that Pulse recorded "Bolster adds user caps, shifts pricing to per-tier tiers up to $583/mo" (Jul 13, 2026). Bolster has been tracked since 2026-07-05.
