Thinkific enables coaches and teachers to create and sell online courses. They are easy to set up and maintain. Thinkific is easy to use and gives beginners everything they need to get started with a web-based online course.
“I recently moved all of my courses over from Thinkific… and already have my native app up and running in the app stores and generating sales."
Both these platforms make it quick and easy to produce an online course. Both allow you to upload content of any type, video, image, text and more, and then easily launch. Both have simple interfaces that allow non-tech people to create beautiful content.
What separates the two platforms is Passion.io’s ability to launch your own branded mobile app to the Google Play and Apple App Stores. This allows your customers to engage and consume your content on a whole new level - and from anywhere in the world, at any time, on any device.
In the past, building a website for your content was a basic requirement for course creators. Thinkific has a built-in website tool that allows you to create an effective page for your course.
Passion.io believes websites are an ineffective and out-dated format for your customers to consume your content, and the data backs this up; Only 6% of web-based online courses are ever completed.
When customers feel like they have an on-going relationship with you, via your branded app and its uniquely interactive features - engagement, retention and earnings are all significantly increased over a web-based equivalent.
(However, if your customers need to access your course on the web, everything published to your native app can be consumed on the web)
There is a good reason Passion.io is fully committed to enabling you to launch your own app. It is where the vast majority of content is now consumed.
"So instead of having the course on a website and the community on Facebook, I like that it will all be in one place on the app."
Keeping track of your customers and engaging with them is a crucial part of maintaining an online course business. Both platforms allow you to see all your customers in the dashboard, as well as their progress.
Thinkific offers more detailed breakdowns of their data points, to monitor course consumption. Kajabi also has some basic community features built-in.
Passion.io allows you to interact with your customers more directly, from the palm of their hands - with an in-app community newsfeed (like your very own social media app), and PowerChat - which lets you exchange messages with videos & images with customers to give direct feedback, and more.
"This is essential to teach my students!"
Both platforms offer a wide range of integrations thanks to their Zapier integrations. Both allow you to perform a few of these functions within their platform, which is useful for beginners.

Both platforms allow your customers to easily pay online. Both integrate seamlessly with Stripe, the world's largest payment processing provider. PassionPayments allow you to take payments directly from your app, for seamless one-touch payments.
This reduces the amount of abandoned checkouts - Where 80% of web payments are not completed, primarily due to the added friction of finding a credit card and copying long numbers into a website form.
One-touch payments from a mobile app completely erases this bottleneck, as there is zero friction between the moment a customer decides to buy and the purchase itself.
And as mentioned above, with over 80% of consumers preferring to buy online via an app, and not a website, this feature will be vital in 2022 and beyond.
Both platforms have Help Centers that are useful to learn each respective platform, with in-depth guidance on each section and feature available.
On top of that, Passion.io prides itself on having some of the most comprehensive training packages for launching, marketing and scaling your course and mobile app to 6 or even 7-figures.
These are the primary differences between the platforms. Now let’s look at what both offer you in return for your investment. Prices shown are monthly.
