Our take
Teachable is an edtech platform helping users set up and manage their own video-content businesses. Running on a SaaS subscription model, Teachable gives teachers the tools to fully design, deliver, and market their own courses.
With competition from the likes of eLearning giants Udemy and Coursera, Teachable had to define itself early. What allows it to stand out is that its platform is comparatively less restrictive for users, enabling them to develop courses more freely - which means that teachers can use it to run a business.
In 2020, Teachable was acquired by Brazilian edtech platform Hotmart, which supported its own ambitions for global expansion. It has launched many new features and secured partnerships to broaden its appeal. A recent rebrand reflects the company's "sharpened product vision", which will see it cater more closely to the way people are learning today.
