Disciple is for organizations that want their community to live in an app with their own name on it. The Branded App plan costs $599 a month billed yearly and includes an iOS and Android app listed under your brand, a web version, a custom domain, unlimited members under fair usage, 5 admin seats, 10 groups, 1 monetizable course, 10k video minutes, a success manager, scheduled posts, custom badges and data exports. Branded App Pro at $999 lifts admins, groups and courses to unlimited and adds Zapier, multi-tier pricing, multi-host livestreams and advanced analytics. You design the app without code in the Disciple Console, and the web community is live from the start of the trial. Members can be charged through subscriptions, in-app purchases or paid downloads. The price is the barrier: a branded app on Circle or Mighty Networks needs their custom top tiers, while Disciple starts there, so it only pays off when an app is the point.
