Kinvent Assessment Packs Compared: Discovery to Ultimate Solution
Find the perfect Kinvent assessment pack for your practice by comparing every tier from entry-level Discovery to the all-in Ultimate Solution.
Kinvent assessment packs range from the $3,490 Discovery Pack, which covers strength and range-of-motion with three devices and a Starter Licence, to the $17,990 Ultimate Solution Pack, which adds K-Force Plates, K-Deltas, K-Myo Duo-Pack, K-Bubble, K-Grip, and an Excellence Licence for comprehensive rehabilitation and performance analysis.
- Manual muscle testing produces meaningful discrepancies between practitioners, especially at the upper grading scale, which is exactly the gap objective dynamometry closes.
- Force plates change what you can measure: Adding force plates to a pack is not incremental: bilateral weight distribution, jump mechanics, and postural sway are metrics handheld dynamometry simply cannot reach.
- Each pack ships with a one-year subscription at Starter, Premium, or Excellence level, and that tier determines reporting depth and multi-patient workflow features, not just device access.
- Solo clinic versus high-volume practice: The Discovery Pack suits a solo or small orthopedic practice; the Ultimate Solution at $17,990 only makes sense when clinical and commercial volume genuinely demands the full toolkit.
- K-Grip and K-Bubble add later: The K-Grip at $590 and the K-Bubble at $1,290 can be bought separately after an initial pack purchase, so starting at a lower tier is less of a permanent commitment than it looks.

What Kinvent Is and Why It Matters for Clinical Practice
Kinvent is a French medtech company that builds wireless, sensor-based assessment tools for physiotherapists, sports medicine practitioners, and rehabilitation specialists. Their product line centers on one core idea: replace subjective clinical judgment with objective, real-time biofeedback that both clinician and patient can act on immediately.
The practical value of that approach is significant. Manual muscle testing, the traditional method most clinicians rely on, produces results that vary considerably between practitioners. Research on inter-rater reliability for manual muscle testing consistently documents meaningful discrepancies, particularly at the upper end of the grading scale where most post-rehabilitation patients sit. Kinvent's handheld dynamometers, goniometers, force plates, and electromyography devices generate numerical data that can be tracked across sessions, shared with patients on-screen, and compared against normative values, removing much of that variability.
Rather than selling individual devices piecemeal, Kinvent structures its lineup around bundled packs. Each pack layers additional devices on top of the last, creating a logical upgrade path from a compact starter kit through to a fully equipped performance and rehabilitation laboratory. Understanding what each pack contains, and what it unlocks clinically, is the most efficient way to match a budget to a scope of practice.
The Device Family: Understanding Each Tool Before the Packs
Each pack is essentially a curated selection from Kinvent's core device range, so it helps to understand what each device actually does before looking at the bundles. The K-Push is Kinvent's handheld dynamometer, used to measure push force during manual muscle testing. It comes in a standard configuration and a Twin Handle version that lets the examiner apply bilateral resistance more ergonomically. The K-Pull is a traction dynamometer designed for pulling-force assessments, useful for grip strength testing in a different mechanical plane than the K-Grip covers.
The K-Move is a digital goniometer for range-of-motion measurement. It replaces the standard plastic goniometer and connects wirelessly to Kinvent's app, logging joint angles precisely and producing a time-stamped record rather than a handwritten note. The K-Grip is a dedicated hand grip dynamometer with an accessory set, relevant for hand therapy, neurological screening, and general upper-limb strength profiling. The K-Bubble is a pressure dynamometer that assesses pressure sensitivity and deep stabilizer activation, commonly applied in lumbar rehabilitation and low-load motor control work.
At the top of the hardware line sit the force plates. The K-Force Plates measure bilateral ground reaction forces and balance parameters. The K-Deltas are a larger-format version, providing greater surface area and expanded measurement capacity for more demanding athletic and neurological assessments. Finally, the K-Myo devices are surface electromyographs that capture muscle activation patterns in real time. All of these devices connect via Bluetooth to the Kinvent app, and data is managed under one of three licence tiers: Starter, Premium, or Excellence.
Discovery Pack: A Focused Entry Point for Strength and Mobility
The Discovery Pack, priced at $3,490, contains three devices: the K-Push handheld dynamometer, the K-Pull traction dynamometer, and the K-Move goniometer. It ships with a one-year Starter Licence subscription. This combination addresses the two most common clinical measurement tasks: how much force a patient can produce against resistance, and how far a joint can move through its range.
For a clinic focusing on post-surgical recovery, whether shoulder, knee, or hip, or managing musculoskeletal injuries and joint stiffness, the Discovery Pack provides the essential measurement loop. A therapist can quantify baseline strength at intake, set numeric targets, track session-by-session change, and show the patient their own progress on-screen. That real-time feedback loop is one of the more underappreciated aspects of sensor-based rehabilitation: patients who see their numbers improve tend to engage more consistently with home programs and exercise compliance.
What the Discovery Pack does not include is grip strength measurement, pressure biofeedback, balance assessment, or EMG. For clinicians whose caseload is primarily general orthopedic rehabilitation with a limited budget, those gaps may be acceptable. For anyone treating hand therapy patients or doing systematic lower-limb load monitoring, the omissions matter quickly.
Rehab Pack: Building a Complete Rehabilitation Toolkit
The Rehab Pack is priced at $8,390 and expands the Discovery Pack's three devices to include the K-Grip, K-Bubble, K-Force Plates, and a plates frame, all bundled in a duffle bag. It includes a one-year Premium Licence. The jump from Discovery to Rehab is substantial both in hardware and clinical scope.
Adding the K-Force Plates changes what a clinic can measure in a fundamental way. Force plate data captures weight distribution, dynamic balance, jump mechanics, and postural sway, metrics that handheld dynamometry simply cannot access. For fall-prevention programs, ACL rehabilitation return-to-sport clearance, and neurological rehabilitation, bilateral force plate data provides information that is otherwise only available in motion analysis laboratories. The plates frame that ships with the Rehab Pack adds stability for standing assessments, which matters for patient safety and measurement repeatability.
The K-Bubble rounds out the Rehab Pack's capacity for low-load assessment. Pressure biofeedback is well-established in lumbar multifidus and deep cervical flexor rehabilitation, where the clinical goal is not maximum force production but precise, controlled activation at low intensity. The K-Grip extends the pack into hand strength profiling, completing a toolkit that covers most common orthopedic and neurological rehabilitation scenarios. The dynamometers available across these packs give clinicians precise force data that manual testing simply cannot match.
Physio Sports Pack: Performance Assessment Alongside Rehabilitation
The Physio Sports Pack is priced at $10,290 and contains the full Kinvent biofeedback device range minus the K-Deltas and K-Myo: K-Push with Twin Handle, K-Push without Twin Handle, K-Bubble, K-Grip, K-Pull, K-Move, K-Force Plates with frame and bar accessory, and a duffle bag. It also includes a one-year Excellence Licence.
The key additions over the Rehab Pack are the Twin Handle K-Push and the bar accessory for the force plates. The Twin Handle configuration on the K-Push allows the examiner to apply bilateral resistance symmetrically, which is both more comfortable ergonomically and produces more consistent force application during isometric testing of the lower limb and trunk. The bar accessory extends force plate testing to include loaded bilateral and unilateral tasks, bridging rehabilitation assessment and sports performance testing within the same session.
The Excellence Licence unlocks additional features in the Kinvent platform, including expanded reporting, advanced comparison tools, and higher-tier data management. For a practice that sees both rehabilitation patients and athletes, or that contracts with sports organizations for performance monitoring, the Physio Sports Pack positions a clinic to serve both populations without needing a second device ecosystem. Understanding how dynamometers and force plates complement each other is useful context for deciding whether the combined toolkit justifies the investment at this price point.
Ultimate Solution Pack: Every Device Kinvent Makes
The Ultimate Solution Pack is priced at $17,990 and contains the complete Kinvent lineup. On top of everything in the Physio Sports Pack, it adds the K-Deltas large force plates with frames and the K-Myo Duo-Pack, which is two surface electromyograph devices with accessories. It also includes a one-year Excellence Licence.
The K-Deltas serve a different population than the standard K-Force Plates. Their larger surface area accommodates patients with balance deficits who need a wider base, heavier athletes who exceed the standard plate's comfortable range, and assessment protocols that require the patient to step, jump, or shift weight across a larger area. In a high-volume clinical environment treating both frail elderly patients and competitive athletes, having both plate formats matters operationally.
The K-Myo surface EMG devices add a layer of assessment that the other packs entirely lack. Surface electromyography captures the timing and relative magnitude of muscle activation, making it possible to assess neuromuscular coordination, identify inhibition patterns, and provide real-time biofeedback for motor learning tasks. This is particularly relevant in sports injury rehabilitation where restoring activation patterns, not just strength, determines return-to-sport outcomes. The K-Myo Duo-Pack allows simultaneous bilateral monitoring, so clinicians can compare, for example, quadriceps activation symmetry during a squat without switching between limbs mid-assessment.
Pack Comparison: Devices, Licences, and Price Points
The table below maps each pack's included devices, licence tier, and price. Note that the comparison table candidates include individual devices and alternative pack configurations alongside the main bundles covered above.
| Model | Key Devices | Price |
|---|---|---|
 Kinvent K-Grip Digital Hand Dynamometer |
Grip strength only | $590 |
 Kinvent K-Bubble Wireless Pressure Dynamometer |
Pressure biofeedback only | $1,290 |
 Kinvent Discovery Pack Strength & Range-of-Motion Assessment System |
K-Push, K-Pull, K-Move | $3,490 |
 Kinvent Evolution Pack Strength, Motion & Force Plate Assessment System |
Adds K-Force Plates, K-Grip, K-Bubble | $8,390 |

Adds K-Deltas or expanded tools | $13,990 |
| Kinvent Ultimate Solution Pack Complete Rehabilitation Assessment System |
Full lineup incl. K-Deltas, K-Myo Duo | $17,990 |
Pricing across the range reflects the modular logic of the lineup. Individual devices like the K-Grip at $590 and the K-Bubble at $1,290 make sense as targeted additions for clinics that already own a partial kit. Clinics building from scratch will generally find that the packs offer better value than assembling equivalent combinations individually, and the included licence subscription adds tangible software value to each bundle.
Licence Tiers: Why the Software Layer Is Not an Afterthought
Every Kinvent pack ships with a one-year subscription to one of three licence tiers: Starter, Premium, or Excellence. This subscription model is worth understanding before purchase because it determines which platform features are available and what renewal costs look like after the first year.
The Starter Licence, included with the Discovery Pack, covers the core assessment workflow: running tests, viewing results, and basic patient management. The Premium Licence, included with the Rehab Pack, unlocks additional reporting and progress-tracking features suited to a multi-patient clinical environment. The Excellence Licence, included with both the Physio Sports Pack and the Ultimate Solution Pack, is Kinvent's top tier, providing expanded data management, advanced comparison analytics, and the full range of reporting options.
For clinicians comparing packs at similar hardware levels, the licence tier is a real differentiator. Two packs priced close together may differ not just in devices but in the data features that come with them. Renewal pricing after the first year is set by Kinvent directly and should be factored into total cost of ownership, particularly for clinics that plan to use the platform at scale across multiple practitioners.
Matching Each Pack to Clinical Context
The Discovery Pack is the clearest fit for a solo practitioner or small clinic focused on general orthopedic rehabilitation. It covers the measurement tasks that appear in most sessions, it keeps the technology overhead manageable, and it brings the cost of entry down to a level where the return on investment is demonstrable within a modest patient volume. The factors that drive dynamometer pricing from a few hundred to nearly eighteen thousand dollars are worth understanding before settling on a tier.
The Rehab Pack makes more sense for practices that see a mix of orthopedic and neurological patients, run structured fall-prevention programs, or treat post-operative ACL and lower-limb cases where bilateral force symmetry testing is part of the return-to-sport protocol. The force plates open up that entire category of assessment, and the K-Bubble adds a clinical tool that has no equivalent in the Discovery Pack.
The Physio Sports Pack suits a hybrid clinical and performance practice, a physiotherapy clinic with sports team contracts, or a high-performance center where the same practitioner assesses both injured athletes and healthy ones for baseline profiling. The Excellence Licence and the Twin Handle K-Push configuration are meaningful upgrades in that context.
The Ultimate Solution Pack is designed for elite physiotherapy practices and high-volume performance centers where the full device range will be used regularly across a range of patient populations. The K-Myo Duo-Pack in particular requires investment in learning the EMG workflow. Clinics that will use surface EMG routinely get genuine clinical value from it. Those that might use it occasionally are better served by investing in a lower-cost pack and adding individual devices later. Browsing the full Kinvent range alongside the individual device pages is the most efficient way to confirm which pack aligns with your specific caseload.
Build Quality, Connectivity, and Day-to-Day Clinical Workflow
Kinvent devices are compact by design. The handheld units are intended to be held during assessment, so their form factor is constrained by ergonomics rather than feature competition. The housings are robust enough for clinical daily use, and Bluetooth connectivity has been a consistent part of the Kinvent design from early in the product line's development. The app-based workflow, where all devices connect to a single platform rather than each requiring its own interface, reduces the cognitive load of running a multi-device assessment session.
The duffle bag included in every pack from Rehab upward is a practical consideration for clinicians who work across multiple sites. Kinvent's device range is genuinely portable compared to fixed laboratory equipment, and the bag facilitates that mobility. For home visit practice, outreach clinics, or sports field assessments, that portability is a real operational advantage over rack-mounted or bolted-down systems.
One area worth discussing honestly is the learning curve. Integrating sensor-based assessment into an existing clinical workflow takes time, particularly for practitioners accustomed to manual testing. The biofeedback features are only valuable if the clinician understands what the numbers represent and how to communicate them to patients. Kinvent's app is designed to make that communication straightforward, with on-screen displays intended for patient-facing use during sessions, but practitioners should budget for a familiarization period, particularly when setting up EMG protocols or force plate normative comparisons for the first time.
Assessing Value Across the Pack Range
At $3,490, the Discovery Pack competes with the combined retail cost of its three constituent devices plus a licence, making the bundled price reasonable for what is included. At $17,990, the Ultimate Solution Pack is a significant capital investment for any practice. The question at that level is not whether the devices are well-made, but whether the clinical and commercial volume of the practice justifies the full toolkit versus a more targeted selection.
The individual device prices provide useful reference points. The K-Grip at $590 and the K-Bubble at $1,290 can be added to a Discovery or Rehab Pack later if a clinic's needs evolve. That modularity makes the lower-tier packs less of a permanent commitment than they might appear. A clinic that starts with the Discovery Pack and adds the K-Bubble after twelve months has followed a sensible expansion path without overcommitting at the outset.
For practitioners who want to browse the broader category alongside the Kinvent packs, the full collection of dynamometers on Peak Primal Wellness includes devices across the strength measurement spectrum. The Kinvent packs represent one of the more comprehensive connected assessment ecosystems in the category, but the right pack depends on matching the device capabilities to the actual patient population being served, not simply on acquiring the most hardware available.

Frequently asked questions
Which Kinvent pack is the right starting point for a clinic new to sensor-based assessment?▾
The Discovery Pack at $3,490 is the logical entry point. It includes the K-Push handheld dynamometer, K-Pull traction dynamometer, and K-Move goniometer, which covers the two most fundamental clinical tasks: quantifying force output and measuring joint range of motion. For a general orthopedic caseload focused on post-surgical recovery or musculoskeletal conditions, those three tools handle the core measurement loop without overcommitting budget on devices you may not use yet.
Are there any safety considerations when using Kinvent force plates with balance-impaired patients?▾
The Rehab Pack and higher tiers include a plates frame specifically to add stability during standing assessments, which is a practical safety detail worth noting. For patients with significant balance deficits or fall risk, having a stable frame and a second clinician present during force plate assessments is sensible practice. The K-Force Plates capture postural sway and weight distribution data, but the physical setup around the patient matters just as much as what the device measures.
How much do the Kinvent assessment packs cost, and what separates the price tiers?▾
The four packs are priced at $3,490 for the Discovery Pack, $8,390 for the Rehab Pack, $10,290 for the Physio Sports Pack, and $17,990 for the Ultimate Solution Pack. Each step up adds hardware that opens genuinely different clinical capabilities, not just more of the same. The biggest single jump in assessment scope is the move from Discovery to Rehab, where adding force plates changes what you can measure in a way that handheld tools simply cannot replicate.
What does the software licence setup look like, and does it differ between packs?▾
Each pack ships with a one-year subscription at a different licence tier. The Discovery Pack includes a Starter Licence, the Rehab Pack includes a Premium Licence, the Physio Sports Pack includes an Excellence Licence, and the Ultimate Solution Pack also includes an Excellence Licence. The tier affects what data management, export, and patient tracking features are available, so it is worth reviewing Kinvent's licence comparison before choosing a pack if your clinic has specific documentation workflow requirements.
What does initial setup involve for a Kinvent pack in a clinic environment?▾
All Kinvent devices connect wirelessly to the Kinvent app via Bluetooth, so there is no complex wiring or dedicated hardware to install. The main setup task is configuring the app, adding patient profiles, and familiarising staff with the device pairing process. The plates frame included with the Rehab Pack and above requires physical assembly and positioning, and for the K-Deltas in the Ultimate Solution Pack, the larger surface area means you need a suitable floor space dedicated to standing and jump assessments.
What ongoing costs should a clinic budget for after purchasing a Kinvent pack?▾
The main recurring cost is the software licence subscription, which continues after the included one-year period expires. The licence tier varies by pack, from Starter through to Excellence, and each tier carries a different renewal cost that Kinvent sets directly. Beyond the subscription, the devices themselves are wireless and sensor-based, so there are no consumables in the traditional sense, though accessory components like the K-Grip accessory set and K-Myo electrodes may need replacement over time depending on usage volume.
How do you maintain Kinvent devices to keep them accurate over time?▾
Because these are electronic sensor devices rather than mechanical equipment, calibration and firmware updates are the primary maintenance tasks. Kinvent pushes updates through the app, and keeping firmware current is the most straightforward way to ensure measurement accuracy stays consistent. Physical care involves keeping sensors clean, storing devices in the included duffle bag to avoid impact damage, and checking Bluetooth connectivity regularly. The K-Force Plates and K-Deltas should be placed on flat, level surfaces for every assessment to avoid introducing measurement error.
What is the most common mistake clinicians make when choosing between Kinvent packs?▾
The most frequent misstep is underbuying based on current caseload rather than likely caseload six to twelve months out. A clinic treating primarily post-surgical orthopedic patients might feel the Discovery Pack is sufficient, but if that clinic adds a neurological patient group or a return-to-sport program, the absence of force plates becomes a real limitation quickly. The gap between the Discovery Pack at $3,490 and the Rehab Pack at $8,390 is significant, but buying the Rehab Pack once is more cost-effective than purchasing the Discovery Pack and then replacing it entirely.
