How Udemy, Alura, and Coursera hide the seat tax

Udemy fails if the cap is only in a FAQ. Alura fails if online courses needs a kicked seat. Coursera is the control: if its third invite worked, do not excuse a silent cap.

Fails that kill compare-courses-seats-2026-09-17-s60

  • Paying Udemy annual after one login
  • Skipping the third invite on Alura
  • Assuming Coursera is unlimited because the homepage said so
  • Dropping online courses to stay under the seat cap

Go / no-go 2026-09-17
