The payment and the classroom write to the same row. Everywhere else these are four separate products.
Why creators switch
Course platforms have the checkout and no classroom. Community tools host live, then meter the hours or take a cut. Coaching apps teach — but your students live in their app, not on your domain.
Schedule, host and record here — 1080p video, multi-cursor whiteboard, polls, raised hands, auto-chaptered recordings. The login that sold the seat runs the session, so attendance and progress land on one student record.
Compared to
Course platforms end at video-on-demand and send you elsewhere to actually teach. Community tools do host live, then meter it — capping the room, billing by the hour, or taking a slice of every sale.
Describe what you teach and get the whole surface back — modules, lessons, quizzes, your branded site, the landing page and the copy — then edit every word.
Compared to
Rivals hand you an empty editor and a template gallery. "AI" elsewhere usually means a headline generator bolted onto the same blank workspace.
Certificates carry a QR that resolves to a public verification page an employer can check without emailing you. The same record drives offer letters, testimonial requests and referrals.
Compared to
Everywhere else the story ends at "student finished the course" — a PDF with a name on it, nothing to check and no loop back into your next cohort.
Courses, live classes, community, store, memberships, docs, whiteboard, certificates, blog and your public site — one workspace, one member record, one bill.
Compared to
Most course tools are content-only. You end up paying for a course platform, a chat app, a meeting app, a site builder and an email tool — none of which talk to each other.
Charge Indian students in ₹ via Razorpay (UPI, cards, GST invoices) and international students in $ via Stripe with zero-rated export invoices — from one storefront.
Compared to
Western platforms assume USD and one card processor; Indian platforms are INR-only. Almost nobody does UPI, GST and global USD properly.
Turn on content protection and every protected view carries that student's own name, email and the time — so a leaked screen recording identifies whoever leaked it. PDFs render as images with no text to copy and no download, and one login can be capped to a set number of devices.
Compared to
Most platforms answer this with the word "secure" and nothing else. We publish the mechanism AND the limits — no Widevine or FairPlay DRM here, and no browser on earth can block a screenshot.
Split a course across 2–12 installments. The student approves auto-pay once at checkout — UPI Autopay or card in India, Stripe abroad — and every later installment debits itself on its due date.
Compared to
Most platforms have no instalment option at all, or generate a link you chase every month — the student forgets and you lose the sale halfway through.
And we take 0% of every sale. Not our headline — plenty of platforms are 0% per sale too. It just means nothing above costs you a percentage: every ₹ and $ settles from your own gateway straight to your bank. Everything on this page ships on the free Starter plan; AI drafting and the custom certificate designer need a paid tier.
Every claim above is on the pricing page and in the help docs — no fine print.

The honest matrix
We checked the category norms across the typical educator stack before publishing every cell. No marketing-page fictions— if a feature only ships on a paid tier, the cell says “partial”. Hover any cell for the caveat.
Prolaud charges a flat ₹1,499/month on the Pro plan and takes 0% commission on course sales. Competing platforms charge a percentage of every sale. Below is the arithmetic, at each platform’s published list rate.

How these numbers are built
Content security
Account sharing and leaked recordings are the two ways a coaching business quietly loses revenue. Every switch below ships today and is turned on from your dashboard — and we say plainly which of them are deterrents rather than guarantees.
Set a per-student device cap for the whole academy. A known device is always allowed; a new one past the cap is refused with a message telling the student to sign out elsewhere or ask their teacher. Teachers see each student's device list and can reset it. Set the cap to 1 and the account works on one device at a time — the parallel-login case.
Dashboard → Settings → Security
Codes are stored only as a bcrypt hash, are single-use, expire, allow five attempts, and invalidate any previous code. An academy admin can enforce it for everyone, and any individual member can opt themselves in. If email delivery isn't configured the gate stays off rather than locking people out.
Dashboard → Settings → Security
Protected video and exam papers are overlaid with the viewer's name, email, ID and the time, taken from the signed server session rather than the browser's local roster — so a viewer can't edit their own mark. If a recording leaks, it is traceable to one account, and the student knows that while they watch.
Dashboard → Settings → Security → Show dynamic watermark
Five independent switches on protected content: disable right-click, text selection, copy, print, and dragging media out to save it. Protected PDFs render to a canvas rather than the browser's PDF viewer, which otherwise hands the reader its own download and print buttons.
Dashboard → Settings → Security → Content protection
Protected media plays through per-workspace signed URLs that expire, so copying a link out of the network tab and pasting it into a WhatsApp group hands over something that has already stopped working.

Prolaud is a creator-business platform built India-first. One workspace bundles a public portal on the creator’s own URL, a storefront with eight product types, live classes with cohort recordings, a community feed, a knowledge layer (Docs), and a certificate system. Payments settle directly to the creator’s bank via Razorpay; zero platform commission; full one-click workspace export on every plan including the free tier.
Eight product kinds: self-paced courses, live cohorts (time-boxed batches with a feed + leaderboard + recordings), memberships (recurring access to bundled products with trial support), 1:1 sessions (coaching call delivery via booking link), webinars (scheduled events with meeting link + recording), digital downloads (PDFs, audio, video, ZIPs, design files), license keys (auto-issued from a pool), and bundles (compose any of the above at one price). Pricing models include one-time, subscription (monthly, quarterly, half-yearly, annual + trial), and pay-what-you-want with minimum and suggested amounts. Coupons are percent or fixed, code-based, time-windowed, per-product, with usage caps.
Every workspace ships a public portal with 14 reorderable section types (hero, features, courses grid, store grid, testimonials, faculty, CTA, rich text, FAQ, stats, contact form, email opt-in (lead capture into the CRM), blog teaser, video, image gallery, logos strip, trust badges), 8 theme presets, 6 header layouts, 6 footer layouts, page-level SEO controls (meta, OG image, JSON-LD, sitemap, robots), custom CSS, custom domain via CNAME, white-label toggles, and a real blog system with scheduling, tags, comments, reactions, related posts, and lead-capture forms.
Live classes run on LiveKit with multi-host roomAdmin grants and cloud recording (composite egress to Cloudflare R2). Recordings ship with heuristic auto-chapters parsed from the WebVTT transcript, on-demand Groq / OpenAI transcription, and resume-from-last-position playback. Cohorts have a Common Room feed with posts, comments, reactions, @-mentions, file uploads, and a points-based leaderboard (attendance + quiz + assignment scoring).
Docs is a multiplayer editor built on BlockNote with Liveblocks for multi-cursor editing. Five typed embeds (lesson, recording, whiteboard, quiz, doc) render as live cards that update when the source artifact does. The six-tier audience model lets creators publish a doc to private, admins, workspace, a specific cohort, a specific course, or the public web at /k/<slug>. Backlinks are automatic via a universal reference-edge table. AI study guides can be generated from any class transcript + whiteboards + pinned chat questions.
A built-in CRM and marketing-automation engine. Contacts are created automatically when an order is paid (tagged customer) and from public opt-in forms (tagged lead); tags act as segments. Automations fire on a trigger — an order being fulfilled, or a contact gaining a tag — and run an action: send an email, send a WhatsApp message, or add a tag, with {{name}} personalisation. Actions can be delayed (wait a set number of days, then send). Abandoned checkouts are detected automatically (pending orders 1–72 hours old) and tagged abandoned-checkout to fire win-back automations; at-risk students can be tagged from the engagement hub to trigger re-engagement. Email and WhatsApp dispatch reuse the same senders as class invites. Dashboard at /dashboard/marketing.
Charge Indian students in ₹ via Razorpay (UPI, cards, NetBanking, no-cost EMI) with GSTIN tax-ID, GST-inclusive invoicing and T+2 direct payouts — and charge international students in $ via Stripe, with zero-rated export invoices. 10-language portals (English, Hindi, Tamil, Spanish, French, and more). UPI — the rail Indian students pay on — is now India’s most-used digital payment method (NPCI).
Zero commission on creator earnings — payouts settle directly from the creator’s own Razorpay account to their bank on T+2. One-click CSV / JSON export of every entity in the workspace on every plan, including the free Starter tier. No forced re-grade of the “lifetime” tier once purchased. 30-day refund window with no fine print. Six commitments documented at /founder-bill-of-rights.
