Features
Everything your course needs. Nothing you have to wire together.
From the purchase to the access to the last lesson: this is what CourseKit does today – and further down, what it deliberately does not.
Every purchase becomes a member.
You keep your website and your payment provider. CourseKit creates the member and unlocks the course.
CopeCart, ThriveCart and Stripe
Connect your own account. Map each product to a course and a duration – a purchase creates the member and sends the sign-in link.
0 % CourseKit fee
You pay the monthly price, no share of your revenue. the own fees of CopeCart, ThriveCart or Stripe stay as they are.
Grace instead of a lockout
If a payment fails, access continues for 7 more days. A refund only takes back the access that purchase opened – never one you granted by hand.
Every payment traceable
You see each event from your payment provider with its result, and can have a failed one processed again.
Access by hand or by import
Add single people yourself – with their sign-in link right away or later through “Send invitation”. Import existing members as a list with their end dates; nobody on the list hears anything until you release the import.
Exactly as long as they paid for.
Every access has a start and an end. What happens in between follows the duration – not your calendar.
Time-limited access
Twelve weeks, a year, until a set day or unlimited, which means lifetime. Extending and ending takes one click; an end date arrives on its own.
A reminder before it ends
Members get an e-mail 14 and 3 days before their access ends – each exactly once.
Release lessons step by step
Set per lesson after how many days it opens – counted from each person's own start or from a group's shared start. Until then they see the date, not the content.
Sign in without a password
A link by e-mail or Google sign-in, and a passkey for your team. Nobody has to remember another password, and you never have to reset one.
Build courses without detours.
Modules, lessons, videos, audio and materials in one place – sorted by drag and drop.
Video hosting included
Upload videos directly – on every plan, with a quota per plan. Playback only runs through signed links that expire.
Vimeo and YouTube
If your videos already live there, simply embed them.
Captions
Upload one WebVTT or SRT file per language; members switch them on in the player.
Audio lessons
Upload MP3 or M4A. Members listen in our own player, and it keeps playing with the screen locked.
Protected materials
PDFs, worksheets and audio files up to 50 MB are stored privately and only delivered while an access is running. A copied link helps nobody.
Drafts and formatted text
New modules and lessons stay drafts until you publish them. Descriptions get headings, lists and links.
A sample course to start
A ready-made draft course shows how everything fits together – adapt it or delete it.
Deleting with a way back
A deleted course is archived for 90 days and can be restored until then.
Learn, test, certify.
For programmes, training and further education: who completed what, documented and verifiable.
Quizzes
A lesson can be a quiz. Grading happens on the server – the right answers never reach the browser beforehand. Passing completes the lesson.
Certificates
Whoever completes a course gets a certificate or a certificate of attendance as a PDF – with a link where anyone can check that it is genuine.
Cohorts
A group starts together: lessons open from the group's start instead of the purchase date.
Learning record
Completed lessons, passed quizzes, playback time and visit days per person as a PDF or CSV – with a note on what that measures and what it does not.
Not our look. Yours.
The member area carries your name, your logo and your colours – readable in light and dark.
Styles and your own colour
Twelve styles as a starting point, your accent colour on top, with a live preview in light and dark. Contrast that is too weak is corrected before anyone sees it.
Three layouts
Handbook, Stage or Path: the same content, arranged differently – depending on how your course wants to be read.
Logo, icon, link preview
A logo for light and dark, the browser icon and the preview when a link is shared all come from your settings.
Your own domain
from GrowthInstead of name.coursekit.de your member area runs at your address, such as courses.your-site.com.
Built for phones
In the browser, no app to install. Members bookmark lessons and pick up where they left off.
German and English
You set the default language, every person can switch – interface and e-mails.
See where people get stuck.
Numbers that say something about use – without spying on your members.
Visit days instead of a login counter
A sign-in link lasts 30 days, so a login counter measures nothing. CourseKit counts days with a visit – without IP address and without time of day.
Watch time and drop-off curve
Minutes watched per lesson and the point where members stop. That measures use – not whether someone learned something.
Monthly report by e-mail
At the start of each month the previous month's summary lands in your inbox, without opening the admin.
With your team and your tools.
Roles for the people, webhooks for the machines.
Roles
Owner, admins and editors. Editors are unlimited on every plan; Starter has one admin besides you.
Unlimited admins
from GrowthFor a team that looks after members and payments together.
Outgoing webhooks
from GrowthNew members, unlocked courses, completed lessons and courses, expiring access – signed and sent to Zapier, Make or your own system, with automatic retries.
Your data stays yours.
Where it lives, who processes it and how you take it with you is documented.
Application in Frankfurt
Application and database run in Frankfurt, and the data processing agreement is included. Which providers - US ones too - process what is in the public list of sub-processors.
Export at any time
All data of your member area as an archive. Members download their own data in their profile.
Deletion with a plan
If you delete your area, it is archived for 30 days and then deleted completely – files and videos included.
What CourseKit deliberately does not do
Named honestly, so you do not have to go looking. If you need one of these, CourseKit is not the right fit for you today.
- No built-in community or discussion feature.
- No native app – the member area runs in the browser, on phones too.
- No landing page or funnel builder.
- No checkout of its own – payments run through your CopeCart, ThriveCart or Stripe account.
- No WordPress integration – CourseKit is a hosted platform, not a plugin.
