[solidcore] and SiteRise Drive Scalable Studio Growth Across the U.S., Surpassing 250 Locations

From fragmented workflows to unified execution—platform powers faster, more efficient studio rollouts nationwide

SAN JOSE, Calif., May 14, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- [solidcore], one of the nation's fastest-growing boutique fitness brands, and SiteRise, a real estate development and project management platform from The Oak Group, today highlighted the success of their strategic partnership. Over the past two years, the partnership has powered [solidcore]'s real estate development and studio expansion across the U.S.

Since the start of the partnership, [solidcore] has leveraged SiteRise's platform to procure, plan, and manage more than 250 prospective studio locations, transforming how its development, design, construction, and operations teams collaborate to bring new studios to market.

As [solidcore] continues to expand its national footprint, SiteRise has become a critical system of record, enabling the company to scale efficiently without increasing operational complexity or headcount.

"Scaling a national footprint requires more than just great locations—it demands precision, communication, and real-time visibility across every function," said Lou Benedetto, Senior Director of Development at [solidcore]. "SiteRise has evolved how we operate, breaking down silos and giving our teams a single source of truth to move faster and smarter."

Before adopting SiteRise, key workflows across [solidcore]'s development lifecycle were fragmented across multiple tools and teams. Today, SiteRise centralizes data and workflows across legal, operations, design, construction, and facilities, enabling seamless collaboration across a growing team of stakeholders.

Key outcomes of the partnership include:

• 250+ locations procured, planned, or executed within the platform
• Expansion into new markets, including San Diego and San Francisco
• Improved forecasting capabilities, enabling more strategic and predictable growth
• Increased operational efficiency without expanding the development team

By integrating with tools like Asana and Google Workspace, SiteRise adapts to [solidcore]'s existing workflows—ensuring that critical data is accessible across teams and systems, rather than locked in silos.

"SiteRise isn't just a tool—it's the connective tissue across our entire development process," added Lou. "It allows us to take learnings from every project and apply them to the next, continuously improving how we scale."

SiteRise enables [solidcore] to bring all stakeholders into a shared environment—what the teams describe as "one sandbox"—where real estate decisions, project updates, and performance insights are visible in real time.

This unified approach has enhanced cross-functional communication, reduced delays and misalignment across teams, enabled faster decision-making through centralized data, and created a scalable foundation for long-term growth.

"Brands like [solidcore] are redefining how physical retail and experiential businesses scale, and that requires a fundamentally different operating model," said Dillon Okner, Founder of SiteRise and Founding Partner at The Oak Group. "By unifying data, workflows, and teams in one platform, we're enabling organizations to move faster, make smarter decisions, and scale with far greater precision."

As [solidcore] continues expanding into new markets and increasing its studio footprint, SiteRise is helping ensure that growth remains sustainable—balancing speed with operational excellence.

Rather than increasing team size to support expansion, [solidcore] has been able to optimize its existing development team, using SiteRise to increase output, visibility, and communication across every project.

The partnership reflects a broader shift in how modern brands approach real estate and development—moving from fragmented processes to integrated, data-driven platforms.
