CourseAgent is a professional authoring platform built for people who know exactly what they want to teach. Use your own materials, design every detail, and deploy a polished course to your LMS or learner portal. AI is available if you want it - invisible if you don't.
Instructional designers tell us the same things. CourseAgent was designed with these objections in mind.
Every word in your course is yours. CourseAgent never auto-generates or modifies your content without an explicit action from you. Write it, upload it, paste it - it appears exactly as you wrote it.
Create unlimited colour schemes from your brand palette. Choose from 50+ fonts, control corner radius, shadows, borders and button styles. Set it once as an academy default and every course inherits it.
CourseAgent gives you 35+ section types - accordions, tabs, flipcards, hotspots, timelines, slideshows, and more. Mix and match freely on every page. No rigid templates.
Start from scratch. Build exactly what you intend. Open a blank canvas and build your course page by page, section by section. Every element is added by you, positioned by you, and written by you. There is no auto-generation, no default content, and nothing you didn't put there yourself.
Drag and drop to reorder sections within a page. Mix any section types in any order. Preview exactly how learners will see each page as you build.

Content that goes beyond text blocks. Most authoring tools give you a text box and a multiple-choice question. CourseAgent gives you a full library of interactive and static section types - the same ones used in professional e-learning - so you can present your content in the format it deserves.
Every section is manually editable. Write your own content, titles, tab labels, flipcard text and quiz answers. Nothing is generated without your input.

Text, bullets, image & text, numbered list, highlight box, quote, divider - your core building blocks.
Accordion, tabs, flipcards, slideshow, hotspot, multimedia embed, timeline, process flow - all built from your own content.
True/false, single choice, multiple select. Write every question and answer option yourself.
Set pass marks, attempt limits, separate feedback messages and custom pass/fail from the formal quiz.
Upload JPG, PNG or WebP. Position left, right, top or as background. Control alt text. Use in slideshows, flipcards and hotspots.
Group individual courses into structured learning programmes - sequences, prerequisites, and multi-course curricula.
More design control than Articulate Rise. CourseAgent gives instructional designers design capabilities that usually require a developer or a separate tool. A 12-colour palette auto-generated from three brand colours, typography control at seven levels, and geometry controls for every component - all in a single design panel.
Set your design as academy-level defaults and every new course inherits your brand automatically. No recreating the same styling decisions for every project.

You can build an entire course without using a single AI feature. The AI tools in CourseAgent are there for the moments when you want a hand - not to replace your judgement.
More control than Articulate Rise. Better output than starting from scratch.
Improve clarity, adjust reading level or tighten the language. You approve or reject every suggested change.
Turn a text block into an accordion, tabs or flipcards with one click. Your content, reformatted - you review and adjust.
AI suggests questions as a starting point - or write every question yourself. Every question is reviewed and confirmed by you.
Need an illustration you don't have? Generate one contextually from within the editor - or upload your own.

Most tools make you choose between authoring control and modern delivery. CourseAgent doesn't.
Update course content after deployment and every active SCORM package updates automatically - no re-uploading to your LMS.
A fully white-labelled Academy LMS is included. No separate platform, no integration, no extra cost for the portal itself.
Run an automated audit across coherence, content quality, assessment quality, inclusive language, accessibility and content gaps.
Every course includes a learner-controlled accessibility panel - dyslexia font, colour profiles, zoom, contrast and dark mode.
I was skeptical about an authoring tool - I thought it would produce generic output and I'd spend more time fixing it than building from scratch. The blank canvas is genuinely excellent. I haven't used the AI features on canvas and the courses look better than anything I built in Articulate.
The design control won me over. 12 colours from three inputs, 7 typography levels, corner radius on every element. Our brand guidelines are fully implemented and every course looks identical without me touching the design each time.
All plans include the full authoring tool, all 35+ section types, SCORM export and blank canvas.
