Thinkific users will be able to customize their page to align with brand colors and tone of voice. Since the platform supports custom domains, users can access both CSS and HTML. The layout design is quite simple and user-friendly, so it won’t take long to pick upCan you make data-driven decisions?

The difference is in our DNA
We're content creators, teachers AND community builders.
And, we know how everything ties together to make a business.
We've been teaching online since 2018. We ran one of the world's largest educational communities from 2019-2021 and scaled to $500,000 revenue by selling cohort-based courses. We kept hopping from one software to another because the experience of actually using all available software is bad.
This led us to build Scenes - an all-in-one platform to run your courses, cohorts, webinars, events, voice chat rooms, etc. - on mobile & web (100% white-labeled).
