Disco is built for learning programs, which makes it a fit for a narrower group of Skool users: coaches and training businesses that run cohorts, accelerators or customer education. The Create plan costs $399 a month billed annually, or $499 monthly, and includes one branded learning academy, unlimited learning products, programs, pathways, events and community chat, rich member profiles and a directory, Disco AI and MCP, automations, and reporting. It covers 250 active members with 100 hours of video storage and 400 hours of streaming a month, and support includes a live onboarding workshop and weekly office hours. Scale starts at $999 a month and adds multiple academies, email white-labeling, API and webhooks, SSO, branded mobile apps and a dedicated success manager. Integrations cover Slack, Zoom, Stripe and Google Analytics. For an open, growing community the member cap and price are hard to justify; for a high-ticket cohort program they are easier to absorb.
Who it is for
Training businesses, accelerators and consultants running cohort programs rather than open communities.
