Heights Platform
Courses, community and short challenges
Heights Platform puts a course, a community and a set of challenges behind one login, and prices the entry tier low enough that a first course does not need a launch to justify it. Challenges are the part worth noticing: a short repeated commitment converts an audience better than a long curriculum most people never finish. An assistant will draft course structure from a description. The cheapest plan is built around that challenge format rather than around a full course.
Our note
The challenge format is the reason to pick this over a general course platform, because a seven day commitment converts an audience that will never finish a twelve module course. Start on the $19 tier deliberately rather than as a saving, since it is the tier that matches a first experiment.

Ruzuku
Course hosting that takes nothing per sale
Ruzuku sells course hosting with no transaction fee and a free plan that is not time limited, which between them make it a reasonable place to find out whether anybody wants the course before paying for the privilege. Lessons can be dripped, students can be graded and the whole thing runs on Ruzuku's own domain. It will not build you a funnel. Anybody who needs one is in the wrong category.
