Drry vs Mighty Networks, the full picture
| Drry | Mighty Networks | |
|---|---|---|
| Free plan | Yes. 100 members, 5 GB, unlimited courses, and the community feed. No card. | Trial, then paid plans. |
| Fee on your member payments | 0%. You keep 100%, only Stripe's standard processing fee applies. | A platform transaction fee on every plan, smaller on pricier tiers. |
| Courses + community together | Both built in, in one branded space you own. | Community, courses, and events. |
| Funnels + landing pages | Built in: compose landing pages from proven sections, capture leads with email boxes and embeddable forms, and see views, joins, and revenue per funnel. 1 free, unlimited on paid plans. | Templated per-plan landing pages; no funnel analytics. |
| Your own brand and domain | Your own address like grace.drry.com on free; connect your own domain plus site white label (no Drry branding, the site is 100% yours) on paid plans, and on Growth your email sends from your own domain too. | Custom domain on paid plans. |
| Knowing who is showing up | See who is showing up, who is drifting away, which content people love, and how many finish each course. Included on Creator ($29/mo). | Deeper analytics on higher plans. |
| Where pricing starts | Free, then $29/mo (Creator), $99/mo (Growth). | A monthly fee. |
| Getting paid for 1:1s and packages | Send any client a one-time or installment link with an agreement they sign before they pay, built in, free on every plan, 0% platform fee. Most platforms make you bolt on a separate contract tool. | One-time and installment plans you can share by link, but no signed agreement, and a transaction fee on every tier. |
| Email your members | Built in on every plan: send a broadcast to your whole community or to an audience your forms captured (free covers 100 sends a month, unlimited on paid). Creator adds automations, journeys that welcome new signups, deliver a lead magnet, and win back quiet members on their own. On Growth, Spark drafts the whole email for you from your own courses and writes it in your voice. | No fully native broadcasts: member emails run through a built-in Kit (ConvertKit) integration on higher plans, so you are managing a second tool, and nothing drafts the email for you. |
Details reflect each platform's publicly stated model and can change. Check current terms before deciding.

Why creators pick Drry
- Keep 100% of member payments. Only Stripe's standard processing fee applies, we take nothing on top.
- Payments run through your own Stripe account, so your customers and subscriptions belong to you, not the platform. No payment lock-in.
- Funnels built in: fast landing pages on your domain with views, joins, and revenue attributed per page. Standalone funnel tools charge $49 to $97 a month for less.
- A genuinely free tier: 100 members, 5 GB storage, unlimited courses, and the community feed, with no card required.
- Courses, a community feed, members, and payments in one branded space you own.
- Your own address like grace.drry.com out of the box, with custom domain and site white label on paid tiers, and white-label email from your own domain on Growth.
- Member analytics on the $29 Creator plan: who is showing up, what is landing, and who is quietly drifting away. The kind of insight other platforms save for their priciest plans.
- Get paid for 1:1s and packages: send a client a one-time or installment link with an agreement they sign before paying. Built in, free on every plan, and no platform fee. Other platforms make you bolt on a separate contract tool, and most never reach 0%.
- Email your whole community, built in on every plan, even free (100 sends a month free, unlimited on paid), no add-on and no second tool to wire up. Creator adds email automations: welcome journeys, lead-magnet delivery, and win-backs that run on their own. And on Growth, Spark drafts your emails AND your funnel pages for you, pulling from your own courses and writing in your voice, so you start from a finished draft instead of a blank page. Tweak it and send.
