Real cost calculator for creator tools
Two quick calculators. Move the slider and the ranking updates instantly.
Email platforms: cost by list size
Email tools usually charge by subscriber count, and the jump between tiers is where budgets get surprised. Set your list size and see the cheapest plan that fits on each platform, plus what happens if your list doubles.
Course platforms: cost by monthly sales
A plan's price is only half the story. Some platforms take a percentage of every sale on their cheaper plans. Enter your monthly course sales to see the real monthly cost, ranked.
How these numbers work
- Prices are monthly billing on each vendor's published plans. Annual billing is usually cheaper.
- Course costs add the platform's own transaction fee. Card processing (around 3% plus a small fixed amount) is charged on top on every platform, so it's left out to keep the comparison fair.
- The calculators pick the cheapest published plan that fits your numbers. Feature differences matter too, so read the full guides before deciding: email platforms for creators, Thinkific vs Teachable and Kajabi alternatives.
