Community, courses and memberships
Mighty Networks puts the community first and hangs courses, events and paid memberships off it, which is the opposite order from a course platform that added a forum later. Members get a branded app rather than another tab. The transaction fee on the entry plan is small but real, and it disappears as the plans get dearer.
Our note
Against Circle and Skool this is the one that ships an app under your own name, and it is priced accordingly. If the app is not the point, the other two do the community half for less.

A video membership with its own apps
Uscreen is for creators who want subscribers paying for a library rather than viewers watching an ad, and it will ship that library as a phone and television app under your own name. The entry plan takes no cut of a subscription and caps you at a hundred subscribers, so the pricing pushes growth toward the tier with a per-subscriber fee. One-time sales are charged at ten percent on that first plan.
Our note
The pricing is designed to move you off the first plan, and it does that at exactly a hundred subscribers. Work out what Pro costs at your target audience size before starting, because at five hundred subscribers the fee is most of the bill.
