Both cover courses & coaching and memberships & subscriptions. Here is what separates them on price, billing, what you can take with you, and coverage.

Shaded rows are where the two answers disagree and both listings have answered. A row where one side has not stated a fact is left plain, because silence is not a difference.
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.
Our note
The step from free to $99 is steep with nothing between, so plan to launch on the free tier and move once a course is actually selling. Against Teachery at $49 this is twice the price for unlimited students and drip scheduling, which only matters once enrolment is real.
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.

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.
