When you rent your platform, someone else decides your price, your fees, your features and whether your account stays open. When you own it, you decide. Every time.

    Pick your plan and pay half to lock the price. Then choose sections, order, styles, your members home and console menu at your own pace.

  2. Check a working preview

    Click through your real website and apps, then send one round of changes. Free.

  3. Approve, and it's yours

Want changes after that? The care plan includes 3 a month for $149, or it's $49 per change request. Or hire anyone you like: the code and the accounts are yours.

Start with this plan

Their prices are from each company's own pricing page on October 8, 2026, for the plan named, and may have changed since: kajabi.com, teachable.com, thinkific.com, circle.so, skool.com, mightynetworks.com, zoom.us, calendly.com. Card processing isn't counted on either side, because you pay Stripe's fee either way.

How it works

  1. Pick a plan

    Choose your plan and any extras. That's your price, and it's locked.

  2. Pay half to start

    A 50% deposit through Stripe.

  3. Make it yours, at your own pace

    Choose your look, pages and sections, members home and console, and add your details. It saves as you go. Press Ready to build when it's right.

  4. Review your preview

    A person checks your build, then you see a working preview and send one list of changes. It's your last free check before you approve.

  5. Approve and go live

    Pay the rest. It goes live on your own Cloudflare and Stripe accounts, on your domain.

Questions

What exactly do I get?

A website on your domain, a members app and an owner console app that install on any phone, and the features in your plan: courses, community, live sessions, 1:1 calls, booking, payments and more. It's built for you, reviewed by a person, and goes live on your own Cloudflare and Stripe accounts.

What does owning it mean?

It runs on accounts in your name: your Cloudflare, your Stripe, your domain. Members pay you directly. Nobody can raise your rent, take a cut, change the rules or switch you off.

Is it a real app?

It's a web app: members install it from your link onto any phone, tablet or computer, it opens full screen from its own icon and sends push notifications, with no app store in the way. You get a separate app for your console. On iPhone, members add it from Safari's share menu; the members area walks them through it.

Can I run everything from my phone?

Yes. Sales, members, support, announcements, community moderation, call bookings and 1:1 video calls all work from the console app. To go live from your phone, open a free streaming app such as Larix Broadcaster and paste in the private stream link your console gives you. The live studio's extras (green screen, screen sharing, members on stage) are made for a computer.

Can I add features later?

Yes. Any feature your plan doesn't include, more pages or a new look can be added any time as a one-time upgrade. New features we build are offered to every owner the same way.

Can you move me off my current platform?

Yes. The Pro plan includes it; on other plans it's an add-on. You upload your members export (a CSV from Kajabi, Teachable, Patreon and others) and we bring every active member over and email them their new access code. If they already pay through your own Stripe account, their subscriptions just carry on. If the old platform holds their cards, those can't be moved by anyone, so members keep access until their paid-up date and get an invite to rejoin before it.

Is it a template?

It's assembled from a tested engine and the choices you make: plan, style, palette, type, pages and the layout of your members area and console. That's why 42 example businesses look nothing alike.

What does it still cost after the build?

Stripe's card fee on each sale (the same as anywhere), Cloudflare at $0 or $5 a month if you use live features, and your domain. Course videos are kept on your Cloudflare too, and you choose how: standard storage is free up to 10 GB and then about $0.015 per GB a month with nothing charged per view, or Cloudflare Stream at $5 per 1,000 minutes kept plus $1 per 1,000 minutes watched, for smoother playback on slow connections. Cloudflare bills you for these directly: none of it comes to us. Changes after delivery are optional: the care plan at $149 a month includes 3 change requests a month, or pay $49 per change. We never take a cut of your sales.

Can I change things after it's delivered?

Yes, through us. After you pay the deposit you design your website, members home and console at your own pace, then check a working preview and send one round of changes free before you approve. After that, changes are made by us: included in the care plan, or $49 per change request, usually done within 2 business days. Because you own the code and the accounts, you can also hire anyone you like to change it. Nobody's permission needed.

Is it suitable for regulated professions?

Lawyers, accountants and clinics use client portals like this, but we don't certify regulatory compliance such as HIPAA. Check your own obligations before storing sensitive client information.

What can't it do yet?

Some features are on the upgrade roadmap rather than built: a downloads shop, event tickets, invoices, quizzes and certificates, intake forms, e-signatures, email newsletters and SMS among them. The upgrades page lists them all.

Draw the line.

Pick your plan and your look in about ten minutes. Nothing is charged until you pay the deposit.
