Graphy vs Teachable vs Kajabi for Indian course creators

Graphy is the India-first pick with native INR, UPI, and GST invoicing. Teachable and Kajabi are global-first (USD) and need a gateway like Razorpay to take India payments cleanly.

Pricing caveat
Verified June 2026 from graphy.com/pricing (India, INR): Launch ₹24,999/year (10% or ₹10 per-sale fee, whichever is higher); Grow ₹49,999/year (7.5% or ₹10); Rise ₹99,999/year (5% or ₹10); Unlimited is custom/contact-sales. A 14-day free trial is offered on paid plans; no permanent free plan. Note: third-party listings cite differing USD figures (e.g., ~$36-$399/month) likely reflecting regional/global pricing, so these are uncertain — confirm current numbers, currency, and transaction fees on the official pricing page at https://graphy.com/pricing.

Pricing caveat
Verified June 2026 from the official pricing page (teachable.com/pricing). Creator plans (monthly billing): Starter $39/mo (7.5% platform transaction fee), Builder $89/mo (0% platform fee), Growth $189/mo (0% platform fee), plus a Custom tier (contact sales). Annual billing is roughly 22% cheaper: Starter $29/mo, Builder $69/mo, Growth $139/mo. All paid plans include a 7-day free trial and a 30-day money-back guarantee; there is no free plan. Separately, payment-processor fees apply (e.g., Stripe/PayPal). Pricing is quoted in USD; there is no native INR subscription pricing. Note: third-party reviews cite a higher annual-only "Advanced" tier (~$309/mo) not clearly shown on the main pricing page, and the page also lists Enterprise tiers (Core $6,000/yr, Pro $12,000/yr, Enterprise custom). Figures change frequently, so confirm current numbers and any India-specific tax/payout terms on the official pricing page before relying on them.

Pricing caveat
Verified June 2026 from kajabi.com/pricing (USD). Monthly billing: Starter $89/mo (1 product, 250 contacts, 2 admin users), Basic $179/mo (5 products, 2,500 contacts), Growth $249/mo (50 products, 25,000 contacts, 11 admins), Pro $499/mo (unlimited products, 100,000 contacts, 3 websites, 26 admins). Annual billing lowers these to roughly $71 / $143 / $199 / $399 per month. A free trial is offered and a "Save 50%" promo for new signups was running at time of check. Note: a cheaper $89 "Kickstarter" entry tier reportedly existed earlier but third-party reviews say it was removed from the public pricing page around January 2026; the current public entry tier shown is "Starter" at $89/mo, and tier names/limits change often. No INR pricing is published. Always confirm current figures, tier names, and any India-specific payment processing fees on the official pricing page: https://kajabi.com/pricing

Decision rule

This comparison is intentionally narrow. It is meant to answer which tool someone like you should choose and why, not list every feature.

Choose Graphy for Indian creators who want native INR/UPI/GST and a branded app; Teachable for a simple global course storefront; Kajabi when you want courses plus heavy marketing funnels bundled and can absorb the higher price. Watch Graphy's per-sale transaction fee on lower tiers.
