Companies Using Teachable

A hosted platform is being ranked against plugins

Teachable sits 6th in Learning Management (LMS) on 4.55% share and 3,940 domains. Before reading anything into that, look at what is above it. LearnDash on 17,956 domains, Moodle on 13,966, Skolengo on 13,645, ThimPress LearnPress on 13,178, Tutor LMS on 5,476. Three of those are WordPress plugins. Moodle is software an institution installs and runs itself. Skolengo sells into school systems. None of them is the same purchase Teachable's customers made.

The distinction is not branding, it is what a detection means. A plugin lands on a site its owner already built and already pays to host, so every WordPress site that bolts on a course area becomes a row in that count. The 3,940 Teachable domains are sites Teachable serves. Somebody bought a platform, and the platform is the whole site.

LearnDash out-counts Teachable 4.6 to 1, and the two numbers are not measuring the same decision. One counts a plugin added to a site that already existed. The other counts a site that exists because somebody bought the platform.

Restrict the comparison to platforms that host a creator's course site and the ranking changes completely: Teachable on 3,940, Thinkific on 3,085 live domains, LearnWorlds on 2,511. That is the shortlist a course creator is actually choosing from, and Teachable leads it.

Smaller and younger than the category it sits in

82.61% of matched Teachable companies employ 1 to 10 people and 13.91% employ 11 to 50, which puts 96.52% under fifty staff. Twelve companies out of the 1,639 with a resolved size exceed 200 employees. The age curve has the same shape: 61.72% were founded in the 2010s and 22.66% in the 2020s, so 84.38% of the matched base post-dates 2010.

Set that against our Moodle profile, the closest thing to a control this category offers. There, 46.75% of matched companies employ 1 to 10 people and 13.63% were founded before 1960, because Moodle's buyers are universities with centuries behind them. Teachable's pre-1960 row holds two companies.

That contrast is a product decision showing up as a distribution. Running Moodle means a server, an administrator and a budget line. Teachable means a card. The people who take the second option are, by construction, the ones with nobody to do the first.

The stack is a launch, not a syllabus

Deadline Funnel appears on 61.98% of Teachable domains and Wistia on 50.23%. Deadline Funnel expires an offer per visitor. Wistia hosts video for marketers. Facebook Pixel follows on 64.1%, Google Tag Manager on 87.45% and Google Analytics on 86.71%.

Nothing on that list belongs to a school. There is no student information system, no proctoring, no accreditation tooling, no timetabling. What is there is the equipment of a launch: a timer to close the cart, a player to carry the sales video and the lessons, a pixel to retarget the people who did not buy.

Two rows need reading differently. jQuery at 92.32% and Ruby on Rails at 56.67% are not choices a two-person course business made; on a hosted platform, a good part of what we detect is what the platform serves. The same caution applies to Stripe (49.49%), Segment (39.36%) and Heap (38.67%). When you read any co-occurrence on this page, the marketing tools are the customer's and the plumbing is mostly Teachable's.

Two shapes of detection URL, two sizes of customer

The detection URLs split cleanly, and the split is informative. On one side, speaknorskonline.teachable.com: a course living on a vendor subdomain. On the other, education.altium.com, academy.axi.com, academy.mattermost.com and campus.syftanalytics.com, custom domains carrying the customer's own name.

The custom-domain rows are the larger customers, and one pattern runs through most of them. Mattermost, Blueshift, CrelioHealth, Castor EDC and Syft Analytics are all doing the same job: teaching buyers to use a product they already sell. Altium at 501 to 1,000 employees and Axi Group at 201 to 500 are that idea at a bigger company. It is a different motivation from the 82.61% micro-business majority, which is selling the course itself.

The subdomain shape carries an honest limitation. A course hosted on a teachable.com subdomain resolves to Teachable's own company record rather than to the person who built it, which is why Teachable, Inc. appears in its own customer list. Enrichment can only match what the domain says, and we would rather show that than quietly filter it out.

Nobody is switching, and the number says so

We publish no migration corridors here. The raw query does return pairs: six domains moved between Teachable and Thinkific, three involve LearnDash, two involve LearnWorlds. Then comes the test that matters. Of the domains that have ever run both Teachable and Thinkific, 83.3% still run both, and for LearnWorlds the figure is 75%.

Six domains and an 83.3% still-both share is a rounding error dressed as a trend. Publishing it as a migration would invent a market movement out of noise.

There is a plainer reading of those overlaps anyway. A creator leaves an old course live on one platform while building the next somewhere else, or an agency runs both for different clients under one domain. Our gate is a still-both share at or below 40%. Nothing in this category comes near it, and if Teachable does start losing sites outright the still-both share will fall and a corridor will appear on this page.

Where the growth number comes from

Our rollups read 3,356 domains in June 2026, 3,532 in July and 3,940 in August. That is a real rise, but it is not a same-store measurement, and two things push it up besides adoption: the domain set we crawl turns over every month, so dead sites drop out and newly discovered ones come in, and our detection signals widen over time, so a site that was always running Teachable can appear for the first time. A further 434 domains have carried a Teachable detection since March 2026 and no longer do. Some of those course sites closed and some simply stopped resolving for us, and the count does not separate the two.

What to take from this

If you sell instruction and you are between one and ten people, this page describes your peer group precisely. 82.61% of the matched base is that size, 84.38% of it was founded after 2010, and 33.40% sells teaching as the product while the rest are coaches, agencies and consultants packaging expertise they already had. The tooling around them is consistent enough to plan against: a timer, a video host, a pixel and a payment page.

If you run a university or a corporate training function, the honest answer is that this is not your market, and Moodle's distribution on TechnologyChecker.io is the better mirror. And if you are comparing platforms on install counts alone, remember what those counts measure. LearnDash's lead is a WordPress lead. Among platforms that host a creator's course site, Teachable is the largest we detect.
