§ I  ·  About

Built for the people who refuse to rent.

We made Starter Site Kits because we got tired of watching brilliant people pay monthly rent on platforms that owned their work, their students, and their data.

§ II  ·  The Problem

Course platforms are landlords.

The way the modern course economy works is simple, and it's a trap. You build your content on someone else's platform, you collect your students in someone else's database, and you pay monthly rent for the privilege of doing the work yourself. The day you stop paying, your students lose access. Your courses go dark. The relationships you spent years building disappear behind a paywall you no longer own.

The platforms know this, and they price accordingly. The fees climb every year. The "essential" features get moved to higher tiers. The contracts get longer. Your dependence deepens. By the time you realize you've built a business on rented land, the cost of leaving is higher than the cost of staying, so you stay.

We don't think that's how it should work. So we built something different.

§ III  ·  The Solution

You install it. You own it. You keep it.

Starter Site Kits is a complete course platform that you install on your own hosting in about ten minutes. You pay once, you download the kit, you upload it to your server, and you run an installation wizard that walks you through everything. When it's done, you have a fully functional membership site running on a domain you control, on a server you control, with a database you control.

There are no monthly fees, no usage limits, no student caps, no transaction fees, and no platform that can change the rules on you next quarter. The code is yours. The data is yours. The business you build on top is yours.

We ship eight complete visual styles, each designed for a specific kind of practitioner. The luxury coach gets one. The author gets a different one. The developer gets a different one. The witch gets a different one. You pick the one that fits, and your site looks like it was custom-built for you, because in a real sense it was. You can switch between them anytime, or customize the one you choose, or build your own on top of the same code.

§ IV  ·  Who It's For

People who think long-term.

Starter Site Kits is for the kind of person who reads the fine print before signing the contract. Who notices when a "free trial" requires a credit card. Who values control over convenience. Who would rather spend a Saturday installing a platform once than spend the rest of their working life writing checks to a company that can shut them down.

It's for coaches who teach high-stakes work and need a platform that feels as serious as their clients are. It's for authors who built an audience over decades and want to sell directly without a middleman. It's for builders who already own a hosting plan and would rather not pay twice for the same thing. It's for everyone who has ever looked at a SaaS pricing page and thought, "I could own this for the cost of one year of renting it."

If that's you, we built this for you. Welcome.
