Teachizy

Teachizy is a French course-creation platform that lets trainers, coaches, consultants, and infopreneurs build, host, and sell online courses without writing a line of code. The interface and the company are French, the servers sit in France, and the whole product is shaped around the realities of the French and European training market rather than the generic global one. That focus is both its biggest strength and its main limitation, depending on who you are. For a French-speaking course seller, it is a thoughtfully built, fairly priced home-grown option. For an international creator outside the Francophone world, the language and market orientation create friction that a global platform would not. The course builder is a block-based editor supporting more than 30 content types. You assemble lessons from text, video, audio, downloadable files, quizzes, and assignments, and you can embed interactive elements like YouTube Live, Google Forms, Typeform, and Genially, plus raw HTML when you need it. Teachizy markets the speed of getting started, claiming you can create your first course in about an hour, and the editor is genuinely approachable for non-technical users. On top of course delivery, it runs the full commercial side, handling the storefront, secure payments through Stripe and PayPal, installment payment options, promo codes, course bundles, and abandoned-cart recovery to claw back people who almost bought. Where Teachizy pulls clearly ahead of generic global LMS tools is in European and specifically French compliance, the stuff international platforms tend to ignore. It ships with RGPD compliance, which is GDPR done properly, backed by French data hosting through providers like O2SWITCH in Clermont-Ferrand and Scaleway in Paris. It supports SCORM lesson imports. And critically for the French market, it offers Qualiopi-friendly features, which matter enormously for funded professional training. Qualiopi audits care about things like progressive lesson unlocking, minimum viewing durations, and quiz pass-rate thresholds, and Teachizy builds those controls in, along with CPF compatibility for France's personal training-account funding system. If you sell training that needs to qualify for French public funding, these are not nice-to-haves, they are the entire reason to choose a French platform over Teachable or Thinkific. The feature set goes well beyond a basic LMS. There is a real built-in CRM for managing learners with tags, comments, and notes, advanced analytics dashboards tracking learner progression and satisfaction, gamification, and automated email marketing including anti-dropout campaigns, welcome sequences, and completion congratulations. An affiliate program lets you reward people who refer your courses, and roughly 40 integrations connect it to tools like Brevo, HubSpot, Notion, Zapier, and Make. That breadth means a solo course seller can run their entire business inside Teachizy rather than stitching together a course host, an email tool, and a CRM separately. Pricing is unusually transparent and includes a free plan that is actually usable, not a crippled teaser. The free Decouverte plan lets you launch up to three courses for as many as 70 learners, with the tradeoff that Teachizy takes a 9 percent commission on every sale. That commission is the catch, and it adds up fast once you have real volume, so it functions as a launch-and-validate tier rather than a long-term home. The Pro plan, around 49 euros a month, removes the sales commission entirely and lifts the limits, which is where most serious sellers will land. An Expert tier, around 99 euros a month, adds further capabilities including a multilingual interface and complimentary coaching. The structure is sensible: start free to prove your course sells, then move to Pro the moment the 9 percent commission costs you more than the subscription, which happens quickly. The honest weaknesses are mostly about reach. The interface and support center are French-first, so non-Francophone creators will feel the language barrier in both the product and the help docs. The 9 percent commission on the free plan is steep enough that it really pushes you toward paying. The strongest fit is narrowly the French and EU training market, particularly anyone needing Qualiopi-ready delivery, so outside that context the France-specific advantages stop mattering and you are left comparing it against larger global platforms on weaker ground. And the ecosystem and community are smaller than the LMS giants, which means fewer third-party templates, less community knowledge, and a smaller integration marketplace than Teachable, Thinkific, or Kajabi. In its category, Teachizy is the right answer for a specific buyer and the wrong one for everyone else, which is exactly how a focused regional platform should work. If you sell courses in French, especially funded professional training that has to pass a Qualiopi audit, and you want GDPR-compliant data hosted in France, nothing global matches it on those terms. If you are an English-speaking creator with a worldwide audience and no French compliance needs, Teachable, Thinkific, or Kajabi will serve you better. Teachizy knows its lane and stays in it, and within that lane it is a strong, transparently priced, well-rounded platform.
