As a solopreneur myself for the last 3 years, I’ve tried every solution mentioned here.
The best solution I have found and what I currently use is https://www.outseta.com/
It handles everything: from authentication to help desk, to transactional emails, marketing emails to sales funnel, subscription management.
Everything is basically no code so you don’t end up needing to build anything yourself that isn’t central to your value prop.
You can get it running in one day. Highly recommend.

I would recommend something like Outseta. I used this for a year or so before building my own complete site with Ruby on Rails. https://www.outseta.com/

https://www.outseta.com/ is the best tool I've seen that offers everything you listed.

I believe you're looking for something like Outseta (https://www.outseta.com/)
They're a membership platform that supports:
- Payments
- Sign up forms
- CRM
- Authentication
- Content protection
- Email marketing
- Help desk
- Notifications
Pretty amazing if you ask me. I have no affiliation with Outseta, but I do follow the founder on Twitter.

Have you looked at Outseta? https://www.outseta.com/billing and https://www.outseta.com/demo . I haven't used it but it looks great. I'd love to hear what you think.

If any of you like me had no idea what a Calm company was: https://www.outseta.com/posts/calm seems to explain.
In summary - it's about how the company is run - not that they make apps to help you meditate.
