Multi-teacher studio cost calculator
MyMusicStaff, Tonara, Duet, and Fons all charge per teacher. Segnoly Academy charges a flat fee for the first five teachers plus a per-seat overage above that. Plug your studio's numbers in and see the actual monthly delta.
| Tool | Monthly cost |
|---|---|
| MyMusicStaff | $45/mo |
| Segnoly Academy | $149/mo |
Where the savings actually come from
Per-teacher pricing is the punitive default in this category. At three teachers it’s a rounding error. At eight teachers, MyMusicStaff is $120/mo, Tonara is $160/mo, Duet is $200/mo — and the per-teacher meter never stops. Academy stops at $149 + $19 × extra seats. Past five teachers, the gap widens every month.
Why we expose break-even instead of a sticker
Because the “cheaper” answer flips on you depending on your headcount. We don’t want you to take the sticker and find out at six teachers that the math changed. The break-even number is the real shopping insight here — at that headcount, the two are the same, and beyond it Academy wins.
