What it really is

A hosted community, course and membership platform aimed at coaching and training programs, with an optional white-label mobile app.

Our take

GroupApp's selling point is simple: no platform cut on what you sell, plus courses and community in one place. For a program under 1,000 members, Build covers most needs at a fair price. The jump comes when you want automation, certificates or SSO, which sit on Scale, or your own app, which costs several hundred dollars a month.

Why we rate it

Community, courses, events and payments with no platform fee and a usable free plan.

The catch

Member caps per plan, and automation, certificates and SSO start at Scale.
