Accessibility: Eduspera's core difference
Eduspera builds for every learner: WCAG 2.2 AA components, keyboard navigation, automatic captions, accessible authoring. For organisations affected by the European Accessibility Act, public-sector procurement, professional bodies and disability organisations, an inaccessible platform is a legal and reputational risk. Podia is pleasant and easy to use, but accessibility conformance is not a headline of its public materials — verify it if your learners rely on assistive technology.
Pricing and migration
Eduspera starts at €37/month (billed annually) for Start, €73 for Grow and €183 for Expand. Podia offers a free plan (with higher fees) and paid plans; as of June 2026 paid plans typically start around $33–39/month (Mover) and around $75–89/month (Shaker) — verify current figures and fees on their pricing page.
If you are moving from Podia, two things make the switch low-risk: your first year is 50% off, and our team handles the entire migration for free — students, courses, lessons, videos and assignments — typically with you live within one week.
Where Podia fits well
Podia is a strong choice for creators who want a simple, friendly home for digital downloads plus a few courses and a light community, without much complexity.
Where Eduspera fits well
Eduspera fits when accessibility is a requirement, when you need deeper course structure (learning paths, assignments, completion logic), when EU data residency matters, or when you want EN/IT/ES interfaces.
