Live teaching built in
Host live classes in the built-in video classroom with cloud recording. Recordings post to the course automatically. No separate meeting tool, no extra subscription.
Course platform alternative
Your courses deserve
more than a course builder.
Outgrowing a platform that only does courses? DeanDesk gives you live classes, cohorts, subscriptions, community, your own website, and free migration of your entire library.
Plans from $39/month. No setup fees. Free onboarding and migration. Cancel anytime.

Why academies move to DeanDesk
Built for teaching, not just selling.
Real academy tools
Cohorts with gated admission, quizzes, grades, certificates, discussion boards, attendance, and learner records. Run a school, not a storefront.
Your library moves for free
Our team migrates your courses, videos, materials, and learners as part of onboarding. We have moved thousands of materials for a single academy.
Before and after
What changes when you move
Before
- A course builder with a checkout and little else
- Per-enrollment fees, or a second tool and a second bill for live sessions
- Learners scattered across a course site, a meeting tool, and a community app
- A monthly bill that grows with every add-on
With DeanDesk
- Courses, live classes, community, and your website in one platform
- Built-in video classroom and cloud recording included
- One learner portal and mobile app for everything you teach
- Every feature on every plan, priced by active learners

Simple pricing
One plan.
The whole platform.
Every plan includes your website, admissions, tuition billing, courses, live classes, family accounts, and the mobile app. Plans scale by active learners, so you pay for the size of your organization, not for features.

Common questions
What people ask before they start.
Will my learners have to start over?
No. We migrate learners alongside your courses, so existing students log in to your new academy and pick up where they left off.
Can I keep selling while I move?
Yes. Your current platform keeps running during the migration. You switch when your new academy is ready and reviewed.
What does it cost?
Every plan includes the full platform, a 30-day free trial, free onboarding and migration, and no setup fees. Plans scale by active learners, so you pay for the size of your academy, not for features.
