Your Skool community lives on skool.com. No custom domain. No SEO. No Google traffic. You're renting space on someone else's platform.
Telosi generates a professional website for your business and hosts your community on it — on your domain, indexed by Google.
Someone joins your Skool. Now what? You have no pipeline, no deal tracking, no follow-up automation. The lead just sits there.
Telosi creates a CRM contact the moment someone joins your Academy. The Sales AI qualifies them automatically — while you sleep.
Skool has zero marketing automation. No email sequences. No outreach. No AI. When you stop posting, your business stops moving.
Telosi runs 18 AI agents across Marketing, Sales, Operations, and Finance — automatically, every week — whether or not you log in.
You write every course, every post, every reply yourself. When you stop creating, your community goes quiet.
Telosi's AI generates research-backed course content with cited sources — no hallucinations. An AI community responder keeps discussions active by answering member questions even when you're busy.
Skool can't take appointments or sell physical products. You need Calendly for booking, Shopify for products, and Twilio for SMS — three more tools, three more logins, $100+/mo more.
Telosi has booking with Google Calendar sync and SMS reminders, a full e-commerce store with Stripe checkout, and a two-way SMS inbox — all in one platform, connected to your CRM.

Free to start. No credit card required.
Create your Academy
Takes 60 seconds. Customise name, tiers, branding.
Import your members
Upload the CSV. Points and levels transfer automatically.
Yes. Run both in parallel. Import your members to Telosi, test the platform, then switch when you're ready. There's no pressure and no deadline.
No. The CSV import reads your members' points and levels from the Skool export and carries them over to Telosi. Your members won't feel like they're starting over.
Recreate your course structure in Telosi's Academy — that takes minutes. Then copy your content over, or use Telosi's AI content generator: it researches your topic, writes lessons with cited sources, and verifies facts before publishing. No hallucinations. No copy-paste needed.
When a member asks a question in your Academy, the AI drafts a knowledgeable answer based on your course content and web research. You can set it to auto-post or queue for your approval. Your community stays active — even on your days off.
Absolutely. You own your member list. Exporting and importing your own data is your right. Telosi does not scrape Skool or access their platform in any way. The CSV export is provided directly by Skool for this exact purpose.
On Telosi, you can create unlimited Academies under one subscription. No per-community charges. Import each Skool community as a separate Academy — all managed from one dashboard.
Telosi charges 0.1–1.0% depending on your plan (on top of Stripe's standard processing fee). Skool charges 2–10% depending on the plan. At scale, the difference is significant — on $10,000/mo in member revenue, you keep an extra $900–$990/mo with Telosi.
Start free. Import your Skool members. Your community is live — with a website, CRM, and AI running behind it.
