Every module a real course business needs, drawn as a ring around the lessons. In Teachable each one is another login and another bill. In TribeNest they are already wired to the course.
Teachable does this part well. Everything a course business needs next, you bolt on.
One course. Eight bolt-ons in Teachable, or one system in TribeNest.
Teachable's entry plan is $30 a month, but it keeps 7.5% of every sale and caps you at 100 students. The fee only disappears when you climb to Builder at $89. TribeNest takes 0% on every plan, with payments through your own Stripe or Paystack.
Each recipe starts in your course and runs through modules Teachable doesn't have. On TribeNest they are one automation. On Teachable the last step is a tool you don't own.
Every trigger and action here is built into TribeNest and wired across modules. Mira proposes the flows you haven't built yet, and nothing runs until you approve it.
Teachable is a genuinely good course tool. The authoring is clean, the brand is trusted, and it is simple to launch a first cohort. If a standalone course on a plan above Starter is all you need, and you are happy running email, community and payments elsewhere, it does that job well.
If your course is becoming a business, with memberships, a store, events, streaming and email that all talk to each other, the bolt-ons and the Starter fee cost more than they save. TribeNest wires every module around the course on your own domain, with 0% transaction fees and no student caps.
Great course tool. Not a course business.
Yearly billing is two months free ($490 Starter, $1,490 Pro). Every plan includes every module and 0% commission. Business is there when you need three brands and ten seats.
What every Teachable creator wants to know before switching.
Yes. Courses with drips, quizzes, certificates, video hosting, completion tracking, coupons, and bundles. Plus tiered memberships, store, streaming, ticketing, smart links, and email, which Teachable doesn't include.
Because of what each dollar buys. Teachable Starter takes 7.5% of every sale and caps you at 100 students; on a $5,000 month the fee alone is $375, and removing it means Builder at $89. TribeNest Starter is $49 with a 0% transaction fee, no student cap, and every module on, from memberships to streaming to a real store. Payments run through your own Stripe or Paystack, and we never take a cut.
Yes. Export your Teachable course content (videos, modules, lessons) and re-upload as a course bundle in TribeNest. Export your student list as CSV with progress and tags, and import in one click. Most creators migrate in an afternoon.
Yes. Course progress, completion certificates, and quiz results carry over from the CSV import. Students get a branded email with a one-tap link to claim their account at the same enrolled course list.
The 14-day trial runs at Pro level: courses, memberships, store, streaming, ticketing, email marketing, smart links, and social scheduling. When it ends, you pick a plan, from $49 a month.
One automation can start with a course completion or a quiz pass, then move across modules: issue a certificate, invite the student into a membership tier, add them to a segment, book them onto a live event, or start an email sequence. Teachable keeps these as separate tools; in TribeNest they are one flow, and Mira proposes the ones you haven't built.
No. You build the automations, and Mira only proposes the flows you haven't wired yet. She drafts the recovery emails and lesson fixes, but nothing sends or publishes until you tap approve. You can auto-approve specific actions once you trust her.
Move your Teachable courses and students into one system: memberships, store, events, streaming and email all wired around the course, on your own domain, with 0% transaction fees and no student caps.
