Questions about plans and billing
Do I need a credit card to try it?
No. Start a 30-day trial of the studio management tools without a credit card. A trial does not automatically enable every paid add-on. Review website and video options in Settings → Billing.
Start your free trialCan I build a customizable studio website?
Yes. The Website/Funnel add-on costs $19/month or $190/year, in addition to your studio plan. Change colors, fonts, spacing, section order, images, and layouts; add teacher profiles, lesson pricing, booking links, group classes, FAQs, and inquiry forms. Collect inquiries in Teachstead and turn them into student records.
Explore the website builderHow much are video lessons?
The optional 1:1 Video Lessons add-on starts at $12.99/month. Solo Video, Studio Video, and Multi Video have different participant-minute and transcript allowances. Group Video Classes costs $29/month or $290/year and includes 3,000 participant-minutes per month. These are separate from the core studio plan.
View video allowances and pricesWhat is a participant-minute?
A participant-minute is one person connected to a video lesson for one minute. A 30-minute lesson with a teacher and one student uses about 60 participant-minutes. A 30-minute class with a teacher and four students uses about 150. Transcript allowances are listed separately.
Read the usage glossaryHow do AI lesson summaries work?
Record a voice note after a lesson or use an available lesson transcript. Teachstead drafts a family-facing summary, a practice plan, and a private teacher note for review. Solo includes 10 summaries per month, Studio 50, and Multi-Teacher 150. Extra summary packs are available in Billing. Review drafts before sharing them.
Who counts as a teacher seat?
Owners and instructors count toward the teacher limit: 1 on Solo, 3 on Studio, and 10 on Multi-Teacher. Assistants who help administer the studio do not count as teaching seats.
Are there payment processing fees?
Stripe charges processing fees for card payments; rates depend on your country, payment method, and Stripe agreement. Teachstead does not add a processing markup. Recording an external payment in Teachstead does not process that payment; any fees charged by the external service still apply.
Can I cancel my subscription?
Manage your subscription from Settings → Billing. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the paid billing period. Website publishing and video access depend on an eligible subscription and their respective add-ons. Review the billing screen for your next renewal and cancellation status.
What happens to my data if I leave?
You can request a data export or account deletion through Teachstead support. Our privacy policy explains retention and deletion, including records that may need to be retained for legal or billing purposes.
