The Thinkific alternative

The Thinkific alternative that runs on your own site.

Thinkific is a good platform — but it's their platform. Your course sits on a Thinkific-hosted site, built from Thinkific templates. CourseKit renders your courses as real pages of your own Webflow site, with 0% transaction fees once you grow and every feature free to start.

Why switch

What you get by moving off Thinkific.

It's your site, not theirs

Courses render as real pages of your own Webflow site. Students never get handed off to a separate thinkific.com destination — they stay inside your brand from ad to lesson.

Design without templates

Build every course, sales, and checkout page in the full Webflow Designer. No fixed course-page template to fight — pixel control, the way the rest of your site already works.

Free forever to start

Thinkific retired its free plan in 2026 — it's a 30-day trial now, then a monthly plan. CourseKit's free plan is free forever, with every feature included.

Questions

CourseKit vs Thinkific, answered.

Doesn't Thinkific already charge 0% transaction fees?
In the US, yes — and that's genuinely one of the best deals in the category. CourseKit's fee starts at 5% on the free plan and drops to 0% on Scale, so at the top you're even. The reason to switch isn't the fee; it's that your course lives on your own site with full design control instead of on a Thinkific-hosted one.
Can I use my own domain, like Thinkific's custom domain?
With CourseKit your course simply is your domain. It's built as real pages of your Webflow site — not a separate Thinkific site pointed at a custom domain. One site, one brand, one place your students live.
Is there a real free plan?
Yes, free forever with every feature included. Thinkific retired its free plan in 2026 — it's a 30-day trial now, after which you need a paid plan to keep your school live.
Do I have to rebuild my whole site?
No. CourseKit runs inside Webflow, so your existing pages, branding, and SEO carry straight over. You add courses to the site you already have rather than standing up a second platform.

Own the platform, not just the course.

Keep your students on your own site, with the design freedom of Webflow and a fee that falls to zero as you grow.
