Skool is a community platform that hosts courses, rather than a course platform with a forum bolted on. Members, courses, videos and live calls are all unlimited on both plans, and the product is deliberately simple: one feed, one classroom, one calendar.
Its pricing is the most revenue-sensitive in this category. The cheap plan charges a large percentage of every sale and the dearer plan charges a small one, so which is cheaper flips entirely on how much you earn. Below roughly a thousand a month the entry plan wins comfortably; above it, it becomes the expensive option.
Skool was founded in 2019 and is headquartered in Austin, United States.
