About Kajabi
Kajabi is an all-in-one online business platform founded in 2010 by Kenny Rueter and Travis Rosser, headquartered in Irvine, California. Unlike course-only platforms, Kajabi provides the complete toolkit for knowledge businesses: online courses, coaching programs, podcasts, communities, email marketing, website builder, landing pages, checkout pages, and marketing automation — all under one roof. This all-in-one approach eliminates the need to stitch together Teachable + Mailchimp + WordPress + MemberPress. Kajabi served over 75,000 customers as of 2024 and has collectively paid out over $7 billion to creators. Pricing is premium: Basic at $149/month (3 products, 3 pipelines), Growth at $199/month (15 products), and Pro at $399/month (unlimited products, 3 websites). No transaction fees on any plan. Kajabi acquired Vibely (community platform) and launched Kajabi Communities to compete with Circle and Mighty Networks. Its Creator Studio includes an AI content generator for emails, landing pages, and course outlines. Kajabi is positioned at the high end of the creator economy — it's most popular among high-ticket coaches charging $1,000–10,000 for programs, where the $149–399/month platform fee is a small fraction of revenue.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is Kajabi worth the high price?
Kajabi is worth $149–399/month if you're selling digital products at any meaningful volume. The ROI calculation: if you sell one $497 coaching program per month, Kajabi pays for itself. At $2,000+/month in sales, the time saved from not managing 5+ separate tools justifies the cost. The platform is particularly well-suited for high-ticket coaches (selling $997–5,000 programs) where the all-in-one simplicity and professional presentation justify the premium. For creators just starting with small audiences, Teachable or Thinkific's lower entry costs are smarter.
How much does Kajabi cost?
Kajabi Basic is $149/month (3 products, 3 funnels, 1,000 active members, 10,000 contacts, 1 website). Growth is $199/month (15 products, 15 funnels, 10,000 active members, 25,000 contacts, 1 website + affiliate program). Pro is $399/month (unlimited products and funnels, 20,000 active members, 100,000 contacts, 3 websites + custom code). Annual billing saves ~20%. All plans include unlimited landing pages, email marketing, and no transaction fees.
Kajabi vs Teachable: which is better?
Kajabi is better if you want an all-in-one platform and are willing to pay the premium — you get email marketing, landing pages, website builder, and community alongside courses, eliminating separate subscriptions. Teachable is better if you just need a course platform and already have your email marketing, website, and community tools sorted. Kajabi's pricing starts at $149/month vs Teachable's $39/month — if you're adding Mailchimp ($20/month), ConvertKit ($29/month), and WordPress hosting ($20/month) to Teachable, Kajabi's all-in-one pricing becomes competitive.
