What each is built for
- Teachable is course-first: build a course, sell it, and add coaching or downloads. It suits a single course with few extras.
- Kajabi is an all-in-one: courses plus a website, email marketing, sales funnels and a community. It suits established creators who want fewer separate tools.
- Deedmade™ builds the same all-in-one (website, members app, courses, email marketing, with community and live sessions included) on your own accounts, and you pay once. It suits anyone who'd rather own than rent, and you can build it free first and see it working before you pay.

Owning has cost less from month 29. After that, renting keeps going and owning doesn't.
Owning still has small running costs: the card fee on each sale (as anywhere), your domain, and hosting that's free or about $5 a month. And you can try it before paying anything: build yours free in early access and see it working first.
How to choose
- Teachable if you only need a simple course and want the lowest monthly price.
- Kajabi if you want everything in one place and are happy to pay every month for it.
- Deedmade™ if you want Kajabi's all-in-one without the monthly bill, under your own name, and plan to run your business for more than a year.
