Teachable is an online course platform that lets creators and businesses sell courses, coaching, digital downloads, and memberships, with the official Teachable homepage stating that more than 150,000 creators and businesses use the platform to reach over 100 million students worldwide. Teachable is a software application with a 4.4/5 aggregate rating in the SoftwareApplication schema on the vendor site and was acquired by Hotmart in 2024, which is reflected in the public Trust Center disclosures on the Teachable website.
The platform organizes its product surface into four sellable formats (online courses, digital downloads, memberships, and coaching) and feature surfaces including AI features, payments, the site builder, sales and marketing tools, student experience, mobile app, integrations, and analytics. Teachable Payments is the vendor-managed payment layer that handles global payments, automatic tax handling, and lower transaction fees compared to the default Stripe path; the vendor positions Teachable Payments as the recommended setup for new creators.
Pricing is structured across four plans. According to the JSON-LD offers block on Teachable's pricing page, the Starter plan is $59 per month (or $39 per month billed annually), the Builder plan is $119 per month (or $89 per month billed annually), the Growth plan is $239 per month (or $189 per month billed annually), and the Enterprise plans are quoted per user (Enterprise Core at $2/user/month and Enterprise Pro at $1/user/month) with the Enterprise tier adding organization management, SSO, dedicated account manager, and increased admin user counts. Annual billing on the public plans saves between $120 (Starter) and $600 (Growth) per year versus monthly.
Teachable's 2026 product update introduces an AI Hub (described as Create with AI on the pricing page), a mobile app, real-time support on the Builder tier and above, affiliate program tools, custom admin permissions, imported students on the Growth tier, and free subtitles and translations on the Growth tier. Procurement checklist for Teachable: confirm the transaction fee structure (0% on paid plans with Teachable Payments, 7.5% on the Starter plan with Teachable Payments per the schema block), validate the product cap (5 products on Starter, 10 on Builder, 50 on Growth), and check whether the global payments and tax handling is suitable for your country. All information above is sourced from teachable.com (homepage and pricing page) and the vendor's JSON-LD schema as of July 2026.
