Give your ideas a home.

BUILT IN

What you can do.

Rich-text posts

Headings, lists, links, code, quotes, and multi-image posts in a proper editor.

HOW IT WORKS

From setup to everyday work.

01

Organize your feed

Create categories around your community's topics and membership tiers, giving each conversation a clear home that members can find.

02

Get members talking

Members publish posts, react, and reply as conversations update in real time, keeping everyone involved without refreshing the page.

03

Manage community access

Review reports in one moderation queue, use keyword filters to hold or block content, and reserve premium categories for paid members.

Your discussions are the product. Stop renting the shelf they sit on.

On Skool there is no export path for posts, comments, or community history. Third parties sell scrapers because there is no API for it. Circle's full export is support-assisted and leaves the images out. Years of member conversations are the most valuable thing a community produces, and on a rented platform they are hostage data.

Here the database is yours because the platform is yours. Every post, comment, and poll lands in storage you control, so you can back it up, query it, or move it whenever you like. Skool Pro is $1,188 a year, every year. This whole platform is $399 once.

Own the forum, or rent it for five years.
Skool Pro $99/mo$5,940 + 2.9% fees
Skool Hobby $9/mo + 10% of revenue$540 + 10% of revenue
Seedly Communities $399 once + your own hosting$399 once

Skool prices as publicly listed July 2026, verify before you rely on them. The Hobby bar looks small until you notice the 10% of every member payment riding on top, forever.

Every post your members write lands in a database you hold. Nobody can hold your archive hostage.
