A branded social network for one community
Honeycommb also builds a branded social network for a single community, paid only like Disciple but from $24.99 a month instead of several hundred.
Community, courses and a calendar in one paid space
Skool puts community, courses and a calendar in one paid space at a low flat price, the cheap end of paid community against Disciple's several hundred a month.
Community, courses and memberships
Mighty Networks combines community, courses and memberships from $79 a month, a large step down in cost for a community still growing into its revenue.
Community software that looks like yours, not ours
Circle is community software that looks like yours rather than the vendor's, paid from $89 a month, a middle price point well under an app-store build.
A community with courses and events built in
Heartbeat includes courses and events in the community from $49 a month with a free trial, suited to proving paid community before Disciple money makes sense.
Works with Discord
Forum software, hosted or run yourself
Discourse gives an established community a threaded, searchable forum, hosted from $100 a month or run on your own server, rather than a branded app in the stores.
