Eckhart Teachings

What Eckhart Teachings does

Eckhart Teachings, Inc. is a privately held Colorado-based company that operates Eckhart Tolle Now, a subscription membership and OTT video streaming platform distributing the spiritual teachings of Eckhart Tolle to individual consumers worldwide. The platform serves a global community spanning more than 115 countries and offers a 300+ hour content library drawn from Tolle's complete archive, including The Power of Now and A New Earth translated into 52 languages, along with live Q&A sessions, monthly community practice events, and Kim Eng's Presence Through Movement offering. The platform evolved through three generations, beginning with Eckhart Tolle TV in 2008 and relaunching in March 2026 as Eckhart Tolle Now with integrated AI features.

The technical stack combines a Uscreen-powered OTT platform with iOS, Android, and connected-device apps, offline viewing capability, and Eckhart AI, a Delphi-built conversational companion trained on Tolle's exclusive teaching archive that supports text in 40+ languages and voice in 30+ languages. Structured offerings such as 'A Year of Awakening' add cohort-based programming, and an SMS messaging service extends member engagement. The product surface is integrated tightly with the Eckhart Tolle personal brand, which The New York Times has described as the most popular spiritual author in the United States and which Watkins Review named the most spiritually influential person in the world in 2011.

The business model is direct-to-consumer subscription with three tiers: $19.99/month, $49.99/quarter, and $179.99/year, each preceded by a 7-day free trial. Supplementary revenue comes from one-time purchases of digital courses, audio programs, and video collections. Customer acquisition is driven primarily by Tolle's published books and organic word-of-mouth within the global practitioner community. Distribution is self-serve via the company's website and mobile apps, with no disclosed enterprise or B2B channel. Live Dreaming Productions LLC, also Colorado-based, is the operating entity for the eckharttollenow.com platform.

Scale indicators4 records

Recent moves7 records

Expansion highlights5 records

Broad incumbents

• The Great Courses / Wondrium: Wondrium (formerly The Great Courses) is a subscription video platform selling structured courses taught by individual experts across many subjects. While non-spiritual, the model of subscription + on-demand teaching library + course-based programs aligns closely with Eckhart Teachings' multi-tier offering.
• MasterClass: MasterClass is a subscription video platform featuring world-class individual teachers across disciplines — comparable to Eckhart Tolle Now on the 'celebrity teacher + curated video library + subscription' business model, with similar pricing and OTT distribution mechanics.
• Calm: Calm is a leader in the meditation, sleep, and wellness subscription app category — competing for the same consumer wallet as Eckhart Tolle Now, but at vastly broader scale with hundreds of millions in VC funding and celebrity-guided content. Broad incumbent in the meditation/awareness subscription space Eckhart Teachings also targets.
• Headspace: Headspace is a major incumbent in guided meditation, mindfulness, and sleep content via subscription — overlapping with Eckhart Tolle Now on the mindfulness meditation user. It is venture-backed and broad-portfolio, not specialized in Eckhart Tolle's spiritual-awakening niche.

Direct peers

• Waking Up with Sam Harris: Waking Up is a subscription meditation/philosophy app by Sam Harris offering guided meditation, daily reflections, and conversational AI guidance grounded in the teacher's corpus. It mirrors Eckhart Teachings' model of a single teacher's philosophy paired with an AI-driven companion for ongoing engagement.
• Sounds True: Sounds True is a multi-decade spiritual/wellness publisher of books, audio, and courses — and Eckhart Teachings' named co-launch partner for Eckhart Tolle Now. It is comparable as a tiered-content spiritual teaching brand with both one-time purchases and subscription-style offerings in the same category.
• Insight Timer: Insight Timer is the largest free meditation app, with a paid tier featuring teacher-led content, community groups, and live sessions. Comparable to Eckhart Teachings on the community + library + live-event pillars, with a much broader teacher roster rather than a single figurehead.
• Mindvalley: Mindvalley sells online courses and structured personal-development/spiritual-growth programs from multiple teachers via subscription. Similar business model to Eckhart Teachings' tiered courses plus Eckhart Tolle Now membership, with overlap on spiritual/personal-growth curriculum and live cohort experiences.
• DailyOM: DailyOM offers subscription-based wellness/spiritual courses, articles, and audio content with structured learning journeys. Comparable to Eckhart Teachings on the multi-week spiritual learning program + subscription delivery model with a similar consumer audience.
• Gaia: Gaia is a subscription streaming OTT platform delivering yoga, meditation, spirituality, and consciousness content — the closest direct competitor to Eckhart Tolle Now in faith/spiritual streaming. Both monetize recurring memberships over a global library of spiritual/consciousness video content, with overlapping audience segments.
