Companies Using Tutor LMS

Tutor LMS is the hardest of the four WordPress course plugins I compared to count, and I'd rather say so up front than bury it. Our October 2026 crawl sees Tutor LMS on 5,884 live domains, 3,227 of them matched to a company, 5th of 60 in Learning Management (LMS) with 6.11%. That is the part of Tutor's footprint our rule can see, and the rest of this analysis describes that part.

What the count can and can't see

We detect Tutor LMS through two JavaScript names. One, tutorElementorData, comes from Themeum's free Tutor LMS Elementor Addons plugin. The other, tutor_prevent_copy, is a copy-protection script that came with Tutor LMS Pro files on 57 of the 58 sampled pages that carried it. The free core plugin carries neither; I checked the code of version 4.1.2. Among the 480 counted domains where we don't detect Elementor, a sample of 56 that loaded showed copy protection on 42. From the other side, of 37 Tutor sites we found through search, only 16 carried either marker. Tutor LMS's site claims more than 100,000 eLearning websites. LearnPress, whose vendor claims 90,000 installs, shows up on 13,905 domains in our crawl; Tutor on 5,884.

Sales signal: treat this list as Elementor builders and Pro buyers, a narrower group than "Tutor LMS users", and the Pro half of it has already paid for an LMS. If you need free-core sites too, look for /wp-content/plugins/tutor/ in page source yourself.

Flat since September

The chart reads 4,329 in June, 5,081 in July, 5,476 in August, 5,924 in September and 5,884 in October. I wouldn't call that growth. The domains we crawl turn over every month, with dead sites dropping out and new ones coming in, and our detection widens over time. Since tracking began on 16 March 2026, 1,279 domains have dropped out on at least one hostname and 85 of them still show Tutor LMS on another. Some leavers may have removed only the Elementor add-on and kept Tutor, and our rule can't tell those apart from real departures.

"Tutor LMS's count is a measure of how many course sites were built in Elementor or paid for Pro. That's a useful list, but it isn't the whole market." - Emma Davies, Data Analyst at TechnologyChecker.io

Sales signal: don't plan territory on Tutor LMS growth from this chart. Plan on its shape: young, small and Elementor-built.

Young, small and selling courses

70.89% of matched companies with a known size have 1 to 10 employees and 21.08% have 11 to 50. Only 23 have more than 1,000 staff. The age split is the striking part: 42.18% were founded in the 2020s, against 26.8% on LearnPress's profile, 24.3% on LifterLMS's and 21.75% on LearnDash's. Industry fits. Education (11.89%), Professional Training and Coaching (10.45%) and E-Learning Providers (7.87%) lead, while Higher Education is 3.14%, less than half its share on LearnPress. The larger names run Tutor for a defined audience: GeBBS Healthcare Solutions for CEU courses, NITDA for its DL4ALL digital-literacy programme, The Career Foundation for a digital job centre in Canada.

Sales signal: these are recent course businesses that built on WordPress rather than renting a hosted course platform. Payment, email and video vendors should expect a founder-led buyer.

US, India, Brazil and Bangladesh

The United States has 352 matched companies and India 334. Brazil (218), the United Kingdom (174), Spain (148), Canada (92) and Bangladesh (91) follow. Brazil's 218 of 3,227 is about 1.8 times its share on LearnPress's profile (322 of 8,679), and Bangladesh doesn't make LearnPress's top 15. Nine of the 50 named companies are Brazilian, among them UniCV, Pandin and Grupo Franzen.

Sales signal: for Portuguese-language course tools or Brazilian payment methods such as Pix, Tutor LMS sites are a sharper list than LearnPress's.

LearnDash: small flows both ways

LearnDash is the only rival where we publish switching rows. Since March 2026, 13 domains dropped LearnDash and now run Tutor LMS, 8 in the last 90 days and none in the last 30, and 5 went the other way, all within 90 days. Just 6 of the 27 domains ever seen with both still run both, which is why the pair passes our tests. LearnPress shares 33 domains with Tutor today and Moodle 21, but most domains ever seen with those pairs still run both, so we don't call them switches.

"Thirteen sites moving from LearnDash to Tutor LMS isn't a trend. It does show that Tutor LMS is one place LearnDash owners go when they leave." - Emma Davies, Data Analyst at TechnologyChecker.io

Sales signal: migration services between the two have a real but small market. LearnDash renewal dates are the moment to be present, and Tutor LMS already markets a migration path on its own site.

Elementor, Slick and Hostinger

Across the 5,936 domains in our clean live set, Elementor is on 91.91% because the rule leans on it, and Slick, the carousel library the Elementor add-on ships, is on 77.17%. The hosting signal is more telling. Hostinger's CDN serves 20.75% of Tutor LMS domains, about double LearnPress's 10.07%, and Cloudflare fronts 21.14%. Google Analytics runs on 52.7%, PixelYourSite on 8.95% and CookieYes on 7.35%.

Sales signal: one Tutor site in five sits on Hostinger's network, so budget-host migration, speed and security offers fit this list better than enterprise hosting does.

What it costs

Tutor LMS's pricing page (checked 15 October 2026) lists a free core and Pro at $199 a year for one site, $399 for up to 10 and $799 for unlimited sites, or lifetime licences at $499, $999 and $1,999. Prices exclude VAT. The plugin's author is Themeum.

Sales signal: a $199 annual renewal is a small, recurring decision. Rivals pitching a switch should time it to that renewal.

Key takeaways

1. At least 5,884 live domains, 5th of 60, with free-core-only sites out of view.

2. In a search-built sample, 16 of 37 Tutor sites carried a marker we detect.

3. The youngest base of the four WordPress course plugins compared here: 42.18% founded in the 2020s.

4. US and India nearly level, with Brazil third.

5. 13 domains in from LearnDash since March, 5 out.
