This is the builder.
$0/month gets you this.
Real drag-and-drop page editor. Real live preview. Real published pages on unlimited custom domains. Not a watered-down free plan with a trial timer — the same builder paid users get.
Built for direct-response operators who are tired of paying ClickFunnels, Kartra, or GoHighLevel hundreds a month before they've made a sale. Here's the side-by-side — plus a credibility wedge most comparison pages can't pull off: Groove.cm is built by direct-response marketers with 20+ years of shipping the kind of software the others sell.

Competitor pricing reflects public entry-tier rates as of 2026. Higher tiers run $297–$549/mo and the operators who actually use these platforms are mostly on those higher tiers. Real savings are typically 3–5× the numbers above.
We don't pretend the others are useless. Here's where each platform earns its keep — and where Groove.cm beats it.
Groove wins: price, e-commerce, unlimited contacts, and the credit-card-up-front problem.
Groove wins: contact pricing, e-commerce breadth, and a 20-year direct-response track record building the kind of platform marketers actually use.
Groove wins: simplicity for solo operators, unlimited contacts, and no monthly subscription floor.
Mike Filsaime has spent 20+ years shipping marketing software used by millions of marketers — funnel builders, webinar platforms, email systems, all-in-one ecosystems. Groove.cm is the next move, with one major rewrite of the business model: stop charging entrepreneurs before they've made a sale.
That's why this comparison page can confidently say "same workflows, fraction of the cost." It's not theory. It's two decades of shipping the kind of platform the competitors sell — this time without the credit-card-up-front trap.
