Teachable

Free trial

8.7 /10

Teachable is the pure course platform — best-in-category course creation and student experience. Builder at $69/mo annual is the real entry tier — Starter's 7.5% transaction fee on top of processor fees makes it unviable for anyone doing real sales volume. At $920/mo in course revenue, Starter costs $69 more than Builder in transaction fees alone.

• Best course creation UI in category — video, quizzes, progress tracking all polished
• Builder tier 0% transaction fees saves $1,000s/mo vs Starter for volume sellers
• AI creation tools help generate outlines, lessons, quiz questions — accelerates course production

8.6 /10

Thinkific is Teachable's direct competitor with nearly identical positioning: pure course platform with slightly different pricing and feature mix. Basic at $36/mo annual is $7 cheaper than Teachable Starter ($29) but with unlimited courses. Grow at $149/mo annual eliminates transaction fees — competitive with Teachable Growth ($139).

• Free tier with 1 course and unlimited students — genuinely useful long-term for validation
• Basic at $36/mo annual = unlimited courses (vs Teachable Starter's 5 course cap)
• Start tier's communities feature is underpriced — Kajabi charges $143 for similar capability
