Disco
AI-powered academy platform combining courses, cohorts and community
Disco is a community platforms tool for Enterprise and Small businesses, offered as paid ($499/mo). Founded in Canada in 2020.
About Disco
Disco is a learning platform from Disco Inc., a remote-first company based in Toronto and founded in 2020 by Candice Faktor, formerly of Wattpad, and Chris Sukornyk. It raised a $15 million round led by GSV Ventures in 2022. Disco helps organizations build branded academies that mix self-paced courses, live cohorts, events and community in one place, for customer education, member programs, partner enablement or employee training.
Admins can generate a program outline with AI, then build lessons with video, assignments and quizzes, run live events, and keep members engaged with channels, threads, DMs, groups, leaderboards and smart nudges. AI tools include a curriculum builder, quiz generator, video transcripts and summaries, audio narration, image generation, community moderation and Ask AI, which answers learner questions from program content. Payments run through Stripe, and Enterprise adds API and webhooks, SAML SSO and branded iOS and Android apps. The public plans are Organization and Enterprise.
Disco fits associations, training companies and businesses running cohort programs where community matters as much as content. Circle and Mighty Networks are stronger pure community tools with lower entry prices, Thinkific is a simpler course store, and Skool is far cheaper for creators. At $399 per month and up, Disco is priced for organizations rather than solo creators.
Ask AI lets learners query program knowledge directly. The 14-day trial is the best way to test the AI course builder on your own material before committing to annual billing.
