Kajabi is a course and membership platform. Firestarter Funnels is the whole system, with a team.
If you're weighing Kajabi against Firestarter Funnels, here's a fair look: where Kajabi shines, when people start looking for more, what changes on Firestarter Funnels, and what a move actually involves.
Credit where it's due, and when it's time to look.
Where Kajabi shines
- Courses and memberships delivered in one polished place
- A strong student and member experience
- A large community of creators who built on it
When people start looking
- You want your website, funnels, CRM, booking, and email sharing the same contacts as your courses
- You want a person to call when you're stuck, not only a help center
- You want a plan price that doesn't step up as your list or product count grows
Everything connected, and people behind it.
One system instead of a stack
Website, funnels, email and text, CRM and pipelines, booking, courses and community, checkouts, and automations share one set of contacts and one login. A lead who opts in is already in your pipeline and your sequence.
Templates built for how personal brands sell
Personal brand site, lead magnet, webinar, book-a-call, sales page, checkout, course and community. Each carries the structure its decision needs; your words are the variable. New premium templates every month.
A real team, in-house
A private 1:1 onboarding session on Zoom, live tech hours with the expert team five days a week, 24/7 human chat and email, and a done-for-you path from the same team when you want it. Never a PDF of recommended vendors.
One price, locked for life
$147 a month or $1,470 a year, unlimited everything, with email and text billed only for what you send and a $20 monthly credit. Your rate never goes up after you join.
Move the people first, the sending second, the pages last.
Map the move on a free call; then your onboarding session walks you through the platform and live tech hours walk you through each step. Add White Glove Setup ($197, one-time) and the team connects your domain, email, calendar, payments, and social accounts and imports your contacts.
Courses and video
Lessons upload to native video hosting; rebuild the course structure and grant access to existing students by tag.
Contacts and tags
Export your list with tags intact and import it first, before anything else moves.
Pages, checkouts, and domain
Rebuild from templates, set up checkouts and subscriptions with a clean cutover, then point your domain last.
Before you decide.
Is Firestarter Funnels a Kajabi alternative?
For coaches and experts who want courses, funnels, website, email, booking, and payments as one connected system with a real team behind it, yes. Courses with native video hosting and member communities are included, alongside everything else.
Can I move my courses from Kajabi?
Yes. Video lessons upload to native hosting, the course structure is rebuilt, and existing students get access by tag. Book a free call and we'll map it, or add White Glove Setup and the team does the connecting.
Will my students notice?
They'll get a new login and a new member area. Announce the move, grant access before you cut over, and keep the old platform live for two weeks.
