Question: As a course creator using video content, which funnel tools integrate with video hosting platforms and track viewer-based triggers?

Kajabi, Teachable, Thinkific, etc. can be excellent course platforms, but if your key requirement is “the individual watched X% of this video, therefore trigger Y funnel action,” I'd specifically verify their granularity before choosing them.
