12 Best Mighty Networks Alternatives for Spiritual Coaches

The best Mighty Networks alternatives for spiritual coaches are the ones that hold the whole client relationship, not just the circle. Mighty Networks is good at gathering people: a feed, courses, live events and member apps. Where spiritual coaches usually feel the strain is everything around the circle: booking a 1:1 session, sending an agreement that says what coaching is and is not, tracking a client's daily meditation or journaling practice, and taking payment without a platform fee on top. So the deciding question is simple: do you mostly host a community, or do you guide individual people through a practice over weeks and months?

For most spiritual coaches who sell 1:1 work, small group containers and a membership, our pick is Coachful. It puts booking, agreements, daily practices with check-ins, courses, a community and payments in one login, with one branded app for your clients. We make Coachful, so we have ranked it first and explained exactly why below; the other 11 tools each win in specific situations, and we say which.

This guide is built around the spiritual coaching client journey (attract, enroll, deliver, retain), with October 2026 prices as each vendor lists them. If you want the broader comparison for every kind of coach, see our parent guide to Mighty Networks alternatives; for the full software picture in this niche, see the best software for spiritual coaches.

Where does Mighty Networks fit a spiritual coach, and where does it stop?

Mighty Networks fits a spiritual coach whose business is mainly a community: a paid circle, a course with discussion, and live gatherings. It stops at the 1:1 layer. As listed in October 2026, Mighty Networks has no 1:1 scheduling, invoicing or contracts, and no per-client habits, check-ins or private coaching plans.

To be fair about its strengths: Launch ($95/month billed monthly, $79/month billed annually) includes community, courses, events, AI Cohost and People Magic, basic automations, a custom domain and free Mighty iOS and Android apps, with 3 hosts and 20 hours of livestreaming a month for up to 100 attendees. Scale ($215/month monthly, $179/month annually) adds more automations, APIs and MCP access, Kit, Zapier and affiliate integrations, and member export with tags. The newer Growth plan is $354/month on annual billing. There is a 14-day trial with no credit card required. For a moon circle or a meditation membership, that is a capable home.

The friction points spiritual coaches report when they look elsewhere tend to be these:

• Platform fees on every sale. Mighty takes 2% on Launch, 1% on Scale and 0.5% on Growth and Mighty Pro, plus Stripe processing.
• Your own app costs a quote. Branded iOS and Android apps are only on custom-priced Mighty Pro; lower plans use the Mighty-branded app.
• No 1:1 back office. Discovery calls, session bookings and agreements live in other tools, so a client's story is split across three or four logins.
• No private practice tracking. You can post a 30-day breathwork challenge to the feed, but you cannot see that one client has journaled 5 of the last 30 days and another has gone quiet.

Public reviewers give Mighty Networks 3.3 on Trustpilot from 219 reviews (seen October 25, 2026). For the full pricing breakdown, see Mighty Networks pricing and our Mighty Networks review.

What does a spiritual coach's client journey need at each stage?

Spiritual coaching runs on trust built slowly, then a container that holds a practice. Each stage asks for different software, and the gaps between stages are where clients drift.

Attract: content that sounds like you

Spiritual coaches attract through voice: a guided meditation, a free new-moon intention worksheet, a short email series on returning to stillness, a blog that reads like a letter. You need a website that feels calm rather than salesy, a lead magnet funnel and an email list that can send a sequence. Our guide to a spiritual coach website covers the copy side.

Enroll: the discovery call and the agreement

Most spiritual coaching is sold in conversation. A prospect books a discovery call, answers a few intake questions (what brought you here, any current therapy or medical care, what you hope changes), then signs an agreement before the first paid session. That agreement matters more in this niche than most: it should state that coaching is not therapy, medical advice, or a promise of any spiritual or material outcome. See coaching contracts for how this works in Coachful.

Deliver: sessions plus a daily practice

Delivery is usually a mix: fortnightly 1:1 sessions, a weekly group circle, and a daily practice in between (meditation, gratitude, breathwork, a journaling prompt, an evening reflection). The software question is whether you can see each client's practice, not just whether they watched a lesson.

Retain: the alumni circle and the next container

Clients who finish a 12-week container often want somewhere to stay: a membership circle, a monthly group call, a retreat waitlist. Retention needs a community, recurring billing and a way to notice who has gone quiet.

The scope line every spiritual coach needs

Spiritual coaching is not therapy, medical care or a crisis service. Refer a client to a licensed mental health or medical professional if they describe thoughts of self-harm, symptoms of a mental health crisis, trauma responses that disrupt daily life, or a wish to stop prescribed medication on spiritual grounds. In the US, the 988 Suicide and Crisis Lifeline takes calls and texts at 988. The ICF Code of Ethics also asks coaches to be clear about the limits of coaching and to refer when another professional is the better fit.

Which tool covers which stage? The at-a-glance ranking

We ranked on four criteria: one login for the whole client journey, delivery between sessions (practices and check-ins), total stack cost including fees, and setup effort, including the free white-glove build.

How did we choose these 12 tools?

We started from what spiritual coaches who leave Mighty Networks usually still need: a community or circle, courses for recorded meditations and teachings, and live gatherings. Then we added what they usually lack: 1:1 booking, agreements, private practice tracking and fewer platform fees. Every tool here covers at least the community or course side. We did not test these tools hands-on; facts come from each vendor's pricing page and documentation as listed in October 2026, and ratings are what public reviewers report.

1. Coachful: the whole journey in one login

Coachful is a coaching platform where booking, payments, agreements, programs with habits and check-ins, courses, a community, a website with funnels and email, and an AI assistant share one subscription. You work from one login; your clients use one app with your branding. For a spiritual coach, that means the discovery call, the signed agreement, the 12-week container, the daily practice and the alumni circle all sit on the same client record.

Daily practices you can actually see. Programs run week by week, with weekly goals, daily tasks and habits. A client in a "Return to Stillness" container might have a morning meditation habit, an evening gratitude reflection and one journaling prompt a day. Morning and evening check-ins collect how they are arriving each day, and streaks and goal progress bars show whether the practice is holding. This is the layer Mighty Networks does not have.

Noticing who has gone quiet. Each client record holds goals, check-ins, habits, notes, intake answers, tags, payments and sessions, with a status of thriving, active, quiet or at risk. In spiritual work, clients often withdraw when something hard surfaces. A "quiet" flag is a prompt to reach out gently before the next session, not a week after they disappear. Michelle, the built-in AI assistant, can brief you before each session from that live data and summarize recorded sessions.

Enrollment without the tool hopping. Booking pages handle availability rules, buffers, minimum notice and time-zone detection (useful when your clients are spread across continents), with two-way Google, Apple/iCloud and Outlook sync and built-in video or auto-created Zoom, Meet or Teams links. Intake questions sit on the booking form, so you can ask about current therapy or medical care before the call. Coaching agreements with e-signature go out before the first session and are stored on the client record. Reminders go by email, and by SMS (24 hours before) and WhatsApp (1 hour before) once messaging is enabled.

Circles, courses and recorded teachings. The community includes a feed, group chat, direct messages and video events; cohort groups are created automatically when someone enrolls in a program, so your new-moon cohort gets its own space without manual setup. Courses support modules, lessons, drip and completion tracking, and you can deliver audio meditations, downloads, books and events into each client's branded home.

Payments with no Coachful fee. You connect your own Stripe or Razorpay account and sell one-time packages, subscriptions for a membership circle, payment plans for a retreat deposit, order bumps and coupons, with Apple Pay and Google Pay. Coachful has charged a 0% platform fee since August 2026, so you pay only Stripe or Razorpay processing. Plans are flat monthly; lower plans cap the number of clients and Pro is unlimited (current plans: Lite: $29/month for up to 5 clients; Solo: $49/month for up to 20 clients; Pro: $99/month with unlimited clients; Studio: $199/month with unlimited clients).

Attract from the same place. The section-based website builder includes a blog, custom domain, SEO settings and 30 designed homepage templates, plus booking, application, lead-magnet and checkout funnels with pixel and UTM tracking. Email lists, broadcasts and multi-step sequences with triggers, delays, branching and A/B splits handle the welcome series for your free meditation. If you hold an ICF credential or are working toward one, ICF hour tracking counts coaching hours and distinct clients against ACC, PCC and MCC thresholds.

This short walkthrough shows how a client journey is set up, from welcome flow to daily check-ins:

Why Coachful stands out: a free white-glove service. On every plan, you can open Create > We'll build it for you, describe what you want (a website, a funnel, a program, a course outline, an email sequence, a lead quiz, an event page), attach up to 8 reference links and up to 10 files such as your logo, photos and existing copy, and the Coachful team builds it inside your account, usually within about 24 hours. Nothing is invented: no fake credentials, testimonials or prices, and gaps are left for you to fill. A somatic coach leaving Kajabi, for example, had their homepage and About page rebuilt and the contact form connected. It does not include recording videos, logo design or ad management. More in our white-glove service guide.

What Coachful does not do. It is not HIPAA-certified and is not for clinical records or insurance billing. There is no PayPal and no permanent free plan. The client app ships under the Coachful listing with your branding, not under your own App Store account. It is not a course marketplace and has no third-party plugins. If your business is a large open community of thousands with no 1:1 work, a community-first tool may suit you better.

Pick it over the others if you sell 1:1 sessions or small containers alongside a circle, want to see each client's practice between sessions, and would rather pay one flat plan than a community fee plus a scheduler plus an e-signature tool. See how it works for this niche on Coachful for spiritual coaches.

2. Kajabi: the polished course and membership business

Kajabi is a course, community, website, funnel and email platform for selling knowledge products. For a spiritual coach with a signature online program (say, a 40-day meditation course with a membership attached), it is one of the most complete marketing engines on this list.

As listed in October 2026, Basic costs $179/month ($143/month billed annually) with 5 products, 2,500 contacts, 1 community, 1 website, 2 admin users and 0 AI credits. Growth is $249/month ($199 annual) with 50 products, 25,000 contacts and 500 AI credits; Pro is $499/month ($399 annual). Kajabi Payments in the US costs 2.9% + $0.30 on Basic, falling to 2.7% + $0.30 on Pro. If you use another processor (other than PayPal), Kajabi adds 2% on Basic, 1% on Growth and 0.5% on Pro. The standard trial is 14 days. Trustpilot shows 3.4 from 2,347 reviews.

The gap for spiritual coaches is the private work. Kajabi treats coaching as products and communities rather than per-client plans, and there is no habit tracking or daily check-in. The Basic plan's 5-product cap fills quickly if you sell separate meditations, a course and a membership. Our Kajabi alternatives for life coaches guide covers where coaches tend to outgrow it.

Pick it over Coachful if your income comes mostly from a large online course audience and email marketing at scale, and 1:1 practice tracking is a small part of what you do.

3. Circle: the closest like-for-like community swap

If what you love about Mighty Networks is the community itself, Circle is the most direct replacement. It offers community spaces, courses, events, live streams and paid memberships, and its feel suits a contemplative circle that values tidy, separate spaces for practice, sharing and announcements.

Circle lists annual-billing prices in October 2026: Professional $89/month (3 admins, 10 moderators), Business $199/month (5 admins, 15 moderators) and Scale $419/month (10 admins, 100 moderators), with Circle Plus on custom pricing. Its payment fee mirrors Mighty's: 2% on Professional, 1% on Business and Scale, 0.5% on Circle Plus, plus Stripe. Branded mobile apps are only on Circle Plus. The trial runs 14 days with no card required. Trustpilot: 4.1 from 129 reviews.

Like Mighty, Circle has no 1:1 scheduling, client back office or per-client habits and check-ins, so moving here changes the community, not the missing layer. Compare the two in Circle vs Mighty Networks.

Pick it over Coachful if you run a large, mostly self-guided community where member-to-member conversation is the product and you rarely meet anyone 1:1.

4. Podia: the gentle storefront

Podia is a simple storefront for courses, downloads, webinars, coaching sessions and community. Spiritual coaches who are just leaving Mighty and want something uncomplicated for selling a few recorded meditations, a workshop replay and a handful of sessions often find it calm to use.

October 2026 prices: Mover $49/month ($42 annual) with a 5% Podia transaction fee; Shaker $99/month ($84 annual) and Earthquaker $179/month ($150 annual) with 0% Podia fee. Stripe or PayPal processing applies on top. The trial is 14 days with full access and no card. Trustpilot: 4.1 from 153 reviews.

Watch the email allowances: 100, 500 and 1,000 included subscribers across the three plans, which is small for a coach whose audience grows through a free meditation. Podia also lists no mobile app and no native video calls, and there are no client habits, check-ins or per-client plans.

Pick it over Coachful if you mainly sell digital products and the occasional session, want PayPal at checkout, and do not need to track clients' practices.

5. Ruzuku: courses with live rooms built in

Ruzuku is a course platform with built-in live video meetings (up to 60 in a conference or 250 in a presentation), plus Zoom, community discussions and direct messaging on every plan. For a teacher who runs a live 8-week meditation course with recorded lessons between gatherings, that combination is practical.

As listed in October 2026, the Free plan allows up to 5 enrolled students at a time with no credit card; Core is $99/month ($83.08 annual) and Pro $199/month ($166.42 annual), both with unlimited students and courses. Ruzuku charges 0% transaction fees on every plan, including Free, so you pay only Stripe or PayPal processing. There is a 30-day money-back guarantee. You can sell one-time, subscription and payment-plan access.

Ruzuku has no booking calendar, so 1:1 sessions need a separate scheduler, and there is no practice or habit tracking per client. Coaches are one of several audiences it serves, alongside creatives, nonprofits and teachers.

Pick it over Coachful if you teach live group courses almost exclusively, want video rooms inside the course, and value a genuinely free tier for a small pilot group.

6. Kartra: marketing suite with calendars

Kartra is an all-in-one marketing suite: pages, funnels, email and SMS, memberships, calendars and a helpdesk. A spiritual coach who runs launches (a free three-day awakening challenge leading into a paid program) gets a lot of marketing machinery in one place.

Pricing as listed in October 2026: Essentials $59/month ($52 annual) with 500 contacts, 1 product, 1 membership and a 5% transaction fee; Starter $119/month ($99 annual) with 2,500 contacts, unlimited pages and products and 0% fee; Growth $229/month ($189 annual) with 12,500 contacts; Professional $549/month ($429 annual). There is a 14-day trial and a 30-day money-back guarantee. Trustpilot: 3.2 from 129 reviews.

The 500-contact cap on Essentials is tight once your lead magnet starts working. Kartra has no client habits, check-ins or per-client coaching plans, and its funnels and memberships are not portable to other platforms, which matters if you move again later.

Pick it over Coachful if SMS marketing and a built-in helpdesk sit at the center of how you sell, and coaching delivery is handled elsewhere.

7. Skool: a gamified circle at a low base price

Skool combines a community, a classroom and a calendar in one group, with leaderboards that reward participation. Some spiritual teachers like the simplicity; others find points and levels sit oddly with contemplative work. It is worth deciding which camp you are in before moving.

October 2026 pricing: Hobby is $9/month ($7.50 annual) with 10% + 30¢ on all transactions; Pro is $99/month ($82.50 annual) with 2.9% + 30¢ on transactions up to $899 and 3.9% + 30¢ above $900. Payments run only through Skool Payments, and those fees are non-refundable. Both plans include unlimited members, courses, videos and live calls. Trustpilot: 1.6 from 54 reviews.

There is no custom-domain website, funnels, email automation or public API, and no 1:1 client records, intake forms, habits or check-ins. See Skool vs Mighty Networks for a head-to-head.

Pick it over Coachful if you want the cheapest possible start for a community with a classroom, and your audience responds well to gamified participation.

8. Systeme.io: the budget funnel builder

On a tight budget, Systeme.io is hard to beat on price. It covers funnels, email, courses, a basic community, a blog and an affiliate program, which is enough to grow a list around a free chakra or breathwork mini course.

The Free plan never expires and includes 2,000 contacts, 3 funnels, 1 course and 500 students. Startup is $17/month, Webinar $47/month and Unlimited $97/month, as listed in October 2026. Transaction fees are 0% on all plans, including Free. Trustpilot: 4.9 from 8,696 reviews.

Community and course features are basic, there is no branded mobile app, and there is no native 1:1 scheduling with client records, habits or check-ins. It is a marketing tool first.

Pick it over Coachful if you are pre-revenue, mainly need to build an email list and a simple course funnel, and have no 1:1 clients yet.

9. Thinkific: courses at scale, community on the side

Thinkific is a course platform with communities, memberships, and coaching and webinar products. For a spiritual teacher whose catalog is several structured courses (an intro to meditation, a year of seasonal practices, a teacher training), its course tooling is mature.

Prices rose about 10% on August 13, 2026. As listed in October 2026: Start $109/month ($82 annual) with 10,000 current students, 1 community and a max group size of 50; Grow $219/month ($164 annual); Expand $499/month ($374 annual). Thinkific charges 0% when you use Thinkific Payments, at about 2.9% processing; third-party gateways carry an extra per-plan fee. The branded mobile app is a $199/month add-on. There is a 30-day trial. Trustpilot: 1.8 from 868 reviews.

Thinkific has no built-in 1:1 scheduling (coaching relies on external booking links) and no client habits, daily check-ins or per-client plans. Our Thinkific alternatives guide goes deeper.

Pick it over Coachful if your business is a large catalog of self-paced courses, possibly with certificates, and coaching is a minor add-on.

10. LearnWorlds: interactive teaching and teacher trainings

LearnWorlds is a course and learning platform with a website builder, funnels, SCORM support and interactive video. Spiritual coaches who run certification-style programs (training other facilitators, for example) may value quizzes, interactive video and structured assessments.

October 2026 prices: Starter $29/month ($24 annual) with 1 admin, 1,000 active learners a month and a $5 fee per paid enrollment; Pro Trainer $99/month ($79 annual) with 5 admins and no LearnWorlds fee; Learning Center $299/month ($249 annual). The trial is 30 days with no card required. A branded mobile app is a separately priced add-on. Trustpilot: 4.8 from 423 reviews.

Active-learner caps apply each month, and LearnWorlds is not built for 1:1 client management, habits or check-ins.

Pick it over Coachful if you mainly run trainings that need interactive video, SCORM or formal assessments, rather than coaching individual clients.

11. Teachable: a straightforward course shop

Teachable is a course and digital-product platform with student mobile apps. It suits a spiritual coach who wants to sell a small set of recorded courses with minimal setup.

As listed in October 2026: Starter $39/month ($29 annual) with 5 products and a 7.5% platform fee; Builder $89/month ($69 annual) with 10 products and 0% fee; Growth $189/month ($139 annual) with 50 products and 5 admins. Teachable Payments processing is 2.9% + 30¢ for US cards and 3.9% + 30¢ internationally. Plan cards show a 7-day trial plus a 30-day guarantee. Trustpilot: 3.3 from 1,110 reviews.

There is no native scheduling or calendar sync (coaching calls rely on outside tools), and no client habits, check-ins or per-client plans. The 7.5% fee on Starter is high if you sell a lot.

Pick it over Coachful if you only sell recorded courses, want student mobile apps, and have no need for a community or 1:1 sessions.

12. Stan Store: selling from your social bio

Stan Store is a link-in-bio storefront for digital products, courses, memberships and paid calls. Spiritual coaches who grow mainly on Instagram or TikTok, sharing short reflections and mindfulness prompts, can sell a meditation pack and a paid call from one link.

Creator is $29/month ($25 annual) and Creator Pro $99/month ($79 annual), as listed in October 2026. Stan takes 0% of sales; Stripe or PayPal processing applies. Email marketing, upsells, discount codes and affiliates are only on Creator Pro. There is a 14-day trial. Trustpilot: 4.7 from 2,205 reviews.

Stan Store has no contracts, invoices or client records and is not a CRM. There are no programs with tasks, habits or check-ins, and no team seats advertised.

Pick it over Coachful if your audience lives on social media and you want the quickest possible way to sell a few products and calls from your bio link.

What do these tools cost at 5, 15 and 40 clients?

Most tools here price by plan rather than by client, so the cost barely moves as you grow; what changes is the fees you pay on sales. Coachful's lower plans cap clients, so the cells below show the right plan for each size.

Prices are as listed in October 2026. Processing fees from Stripe or another provider apply on top for every tool except where noted. None of the non-Coachful tools above include 1:1 booking with agreements and practice tracking, so their real stack cost is higher, as the next section shows.

All-in-one or assembled: which stack should a spiritual coach run?

An all-in-one stack costs one plan and keeps each client's story in one place; an assembled stack lets you pick favorites but adds subscriptions, fees and logins. Here is how the two look for a spiritual coach with 15 clients, a membership circle and a free meditation funnel. The assembled figures are an example using prices listed in October 2026.

As an example of how fees add up: a coach selling $3,000 a month through Mighty Networks Launch pays $60 a month in platform fees before processing. That figure is illustrative; plug in your own revenue. For more on running group containers outside Mighty, see how to run coaching cohorts without Mighty Networks.

How does a spiritual coach set this up in Coachful, step by step?

Here is a worked example of a "Return to Stillness" 12-week container with an alumni circle. The prices you set are your own; a simple approach is to estimate your hours per client across the container, decide your hourly value, and price the package from there.

1. Request the build. Open Create > We'll build it for you and ask for a website in a calm template, a lead-magnet funnel for a free guided meditation, and a three-email welcome sequence. Attach your logo, photos and any existing copy.
2. Set up the discovery call. Create a booking page with buffers between calls and time-zone detection. Add intake questions: what brought you here, any current therapy or medical care, and what you hope will feel different in three months.
3. Write the agreement. Add your coaching agreement with your scope line (coaching is not therapy, medical advice or a guarantee of outcomes) and your cancellation terms, set to send before the first paid session.
4. Build the program. Create a 12-week program with a weekly theme, a daily meditation habit, one journaling task a day, and morning and evening check-ins. Use a program template as a starting point if you prefer.
5. Add the teachings. Upload guided audio meditations as a course with drip, so week 3's practice opens in week 3.
6. Price and connect payments. Connect Stripe, create the offer with a payment plan option, and add a coupon for returning clients if you like.
7. Open the circle. Enrollment creates the cohort group automatically. Schedule a weekly group call as a video event.
8. Plan retention. Create a monthly subscription for an alumni membership circle and an email sequence that invites graduates in week 11.
9. Watch the statuses. Each week, check who has moved to quiet or at risk and reach out personally.

How do you migrate from Mighty Networks without losing your circle?

Move members in stages and tell them early. Mighty's plan docs list member export (with Member Tags) on Launch and Scale; posts and content were not bulk-exportable in our older profile of the platform, so plan to re-upload courses and recordings yourself or ask your new platform to help.

• Export the member list first, with tags, so you can rebuild your circles (for example, "new moon 2026 cohort" and "alumni").
• Download your recordings and course files before you cancel. Guided meditations are often the hardest asset to recreate.
• Announce a gathering on the new platform rather than just a link. A live circle in the new space gives members a reason to log in.
• Run both for one billing cycle so recurring members are not charged twice or dropped. Move subscriptions deliberately, member by member if needed.
• Let your new platform import for you. On Coachful, clients, programs and content are imported for you during onboarding.

Our full guide on how to migrate from Mighty Networks covers the timeline in detail.

Which mistakes do spiritual coaches make when switching?

• Swapping one community tool for another. If the pain was 1:1 booking and agreements, moving from Mighty to Circle changes the feed but not the problem.
• Skipping the agreement. In a niche where clients may arrive in grief or crisis, a signed scope line protects both of you. Have a local lawyer review your template.
• Tracking practice in the feed. Public challenge posts show who is enthusiastic, not who is struggling quietly. Private check-ins show both.
• Ignoring fees at your real revenue. A 2% to 10% fee looks small until you multiply it by a year of membership income.
• Choosing gamification by default. Leaderboards can energize a challenge, but many spiritual clients find them at odds with the work.

What is our verdict?

If you guide individual clients through a practice and also hold a circle, Coachful is the strongest Mighty Networks alternative for spiritual coaches: one login for booking, agreements, daily practices, courses, community and payments, a 0% Coachful platform fee, and a free white-glove build to get you started. Choose Kajabi for a large course and email business, Circle for a community-first swap, Ruzuku for live group courses, and Systeme.io if you are still building a list on almost no budget. For more community-focused options in this niche, see community platforms for spiritual coaches and course platforms for spiritual coaches.

To start, open a free trial at Coachful, then use Create > We'll build it for you to have your website, funnel or program set up for you.

Frequently asked questions

Is Mighty Networks good for spiritual coaches?

It is good for spiritual coaches whose business is mostly a community, course and live events. It has no 1:1 scheduling, contracts or per-client habit tracking as listed in October 2026, so coaches with private clients usually add other tools or switch.

What is the cheapest Mighty Networks alternative for a spiritual circle?

Systeme.io has a free plan with 0% transaction fees, and Skool Hobby is $9/month with a 10% + 30¢ transaction fee, as listed in October 2026. Ruzuku is free for up to 5 enrolled students. Cheapest at sign-up is not always cheapest once fees and extra tools are counted.

Can I track my clients' meditation or journaling practice?

In Coachful, yes: programs include habits, daily tasks, and morning and evening check-ins, with streaks and progress bars on each client record. None of the other tools in this list document per-client habit tracking.

Do I need a coaching agreement as a spiritual coach?

It is wise. An agreement sets out what coaching is and is not, your cancellation terms and your scope line on therapy and medical care. This is not legal advice; laws vary by state and country, so have a local lawyer review your template.

When should a spiritual coach refer a client elsewhere?

Refer when a client describes thoughts of self-harm, a mental health crisis, trauma symptoms that disrupt daily life, or a plan to stop prescribed medication. Spiritual coaching is not therapy or medical care. In the US, the 988 Suicide and Crisis Lifeline is available by call or text.

Can I keep my own branded app if I leave Mighty Networks?

Mighty's own branded apps are only on custom-priced Mighty Pro. Coachful's client app carries your branding inside the Coachful app listing, not under your own App Store account. Circle and Thinkific offer branded apps on custom plans or as paid add-ons.

What is Coachful's free white-glove service?

On every plan, the Coachful team builds what you describe (a website, funnel, program, course outline, email sequence and more) inside your account, usually within about 24 hours. You can attach up to 8 links and 10 files. It does not include video recording, logo design or ad management.

Does Coachful take a cut of my sales?

No. Coachful has charged a 0% platform fee since August 2026. You pay only Stripe or Razorpay processing through your own account.

Can I run group circles and 1:1 sessions in the same place?

In Coachful, yes. The community has a feed, group chat and video events, and cohort groups are created when clients enroll in a program, while 1:1 sessions book through your own booking pages with calendar sync.

Is Coachful HIPAA-compliant?

No. Coachful is not HIPAA-certified and does not sign a BAA, so it is not for clinical records or insurance billing. Spiritual coaches doing coaching rather than clinical work typically do not need that, but keep any clinical information in a clinical system.
