Preply
Preply doubles down on B2B language training for distributed enterprise teams.
A side-by-side editorial comparison of Kajabi and Zoho Learn — release velocity, themes, recent moves, and the top alternatives to consider.
Kajabi pushes deeper into payments and community while sanding down monetization friction across the funnel.
Kajabi is shipping on three fronts at once: payments (Instant Payouts), community (a six-week Timberline cycle adding feed modes, saved posts, read-only channels, custom usernames, recurring meetups), and monetization plumbing (redesigned upsells, checkout label overrides, abandoned-cart emails, Media Library with Adobe Express). Mobile apps are absorbing the community work on the same release cadence as web.

Kajabi is shipping on three fronts at once: payments (Instant Payouts), community (a six-week Timberline cycle adding feed modes, saved posts, read-only channels, custom usernames, recurring meetups), and monetization plumbing (redesigned upsells, checkout label overrides, abandoned-cart emails, Media Library with Adobe Express). Mobile apps are absorbing the community work on the same release cadence as web.
The product is hardening its position as an end-to-end creator OS rather than competing on any single surface. Community is where the most concentrated engineering has gone — it's clearly being treated as a Skool/Mighty Networks-class competitor inside Kajabi, not a checkbox feature. Payments and checkout polish suggest a parallel effort to keep more revenue (and creator dollars) inside the platform.
Expect the next cycle to extend payments — likely buyer-facing payment flexibility (BNPL, multi-currency, or expanded payout geographies) — alongside continued community work focused on engagement metrics and admin moderation tooling.
