DEV-TOP · horizontalOur take
Best for creators who want to consolidate courses, email marketing, funnels, and community into a single subscription instead of stitching together separate tools — that consolidation comes at a materially higher starting price than course-only platforms like Thinkific or Podia.
Choose this if...
- Established creators/coaches who want courses, marketing, and funnels under one roof
- Businesses ready to pay a premium to avoid tool-stitching (email tool + funnel builder + course host)
Look elsewhere if...
- You're just starting out and want the lowest possible entry price — Basic starts at $179/mo with no real free tier
- You only need a simple course host and don't want to pay for marketing/funnel features you won't use

Free tier reality
There's no permanent free plan. No ongoing free plan — a lower entry-level "Starter" tier exists (1 product, 250 contacts, 2 admins) but its price wasn't clearly published on the current pricing page, so it's omitted here rather than guessed. Kajabi instead offers a 30-day free trial (no credit card required) before billing starts at Basic ($179/mo, $143/mo billed annually).
