Feature by feature comparison.
An honest, side-by-side look at what each tool actually does.
Three things we do better than Thinkific for coaches.
Where Mentoring Page is the obvious pick — by design.
Coaching is the core product, not a side feature
Thinkific's Coaching product exists, but the platform is built around the LMS — student records, learning paths, certificates, SCORM. Mentoring Page is built around the session: native availability, calendar sync, ICS feeds, automated reminders, intake forms, packages, and retainers as first-class product types.
Every feature unlimited at $37/month
Thinkific caps communities (1 on Start, 3 on Grow), affiliate partners (1 / 3 / 10), and gates branding removal and API access behind Grow ($149/mo annual). Mentoring Page Coach Pro includes every feature with no per-tier caps for a flat $37/month.
Set up in an afternoon, not a launch project
Building a Thinkific academy is a project — courses, learning paths, dashboards, drip schedules. Mentoring Page is a storefront you list offers on: pick a template, connect Stripe and your calendar, and you're taking bookings the same day.
Choose according to your business and workflow.
Both tools are good at what they're built for. The honest question: which job is yours?
Pick Thinkific if
- Self-paced video courses with quizzes, certificates, and assignments are your main product
- You're running a learning academy where SCORM compliance, learning paths, and student analytics matter
- You can absorb $74–$374/month and want a polished, mature LMS
Pick Mentoring Page if
- 1:1 and group coaching are core to your practice, not a side product
- You want booking, calendar sync, ICS feeds, and automated session reminders out of the box
- You'd rather pay $37/month with every feature included — no per-tier community or affiliate caps
