What they are
Kajabi
Kajabi is an all-in-one platform where creators build and sell online courses, membership sites, coaching programs, and digital products. It combines a website builder, email marketing, checkout, and basic analytics under one subscription. Solo creators and small teams use it to avoid stitching together multiple tools. The trade-off is that each individual feature tends to be shallower than a dedicated specialist tool.

It includes a built-in ad network, paid subscription tiers, referral programs, and detailed subscriber analytics in one place.
