Turn your content into training that actually works.
Create courses from documents, videos, and existing SCORM — with AI built into every step. No blank pages. No rebuilds. No wasted content.
- Import SCORM → editable courses
- Convert files → trackable learning
- Use your own AI models
One workspace replaces a stack of tools
Most authoring tools assume you're starting from zero.
Your content already exists — in decks, PDFs, SOPs, videos, and old courses. SimpliAuthor makes it usable instead of asking you to rebuild it.
The old way
- Content rewritten manually, from scratch
- Courses built block by block, by hand
- Existing SCORM locked and unusable
- Teams spend more time recreating than training
With SimpliAuthor
- Upload what you already have
- Let AI structure it into lessons & quizzes
- Edit and refine on a single canvas
- Publish SCORM-ready learning anywhere

SimpliAuthor questions, answered
Quick answers to what people ask when looking for an AI course authoring and SCORM conversion tool.
How do I convert a PDF, PowerPoint or Word document into a SCORM course?
Upload your PDF, PPT or Word file to SimpliAuthor’s free SCORM converter and it produces a standards-compliant SCORM package in minutes. The output works in any SCORM-compatible LMS — including SimpliTrain, Moodle, Cornerstone and others — and stays fully editable afterward.
Can AI create an online course from my existing documents?
Yes. SimpliAuthor’s AI course authoring reads your uploaded documents, decks, videos or web pages and drafts a complete course — learning objectives, lesson structure, interactive blocks and assessments. You review and refine instead of building from a blank page, so a first draft takes minutes rather than days.
What is the best Articulate Rise alternative for corporate training?
SimpliAuthor is an AI-first alternative for teams that want to build, deliver and sell training from one place. Unlike rebuild-from-scratch workflows, it starts from content you already own, converts files to SCORM for free, imports and re-edits existing Rise SCORM packages, and lets you connect your own AI model. It’s also part of the SimpliTrain ecosystem, so courses go straight to delivery, certification and commerce.
Can I edit a SCORM file without the original source files?
Yes. SimpliAuthor imports compiled SCORM packages and makes them editable again — text, images, media, structure and quizzes — even when you no longer have the original project files. This is ideal for updating compliance or policy courses when rules change.
Is there a free tool to convert files to SCORM?
SimpliAuthor offers free file-to-SCORM conversion for PDF, PowerPoint, Word and MP4 files. You can turn existing material into SCORM-ready e-learning at no cost and publish it to any learning management system.
How do I migrate courses from Articulate Rise to SimpliAuthor?
Export your course from Rise as a SCORM package, import it into SimpliAuthor, and it becomes a fully editable course — no rebuilding. From there you can update content, add AI-generated assessments, and publish to your LMS. Most teams migrate their first course in a few minutes.
Can I use my own OpenAI or Gemini API key for authoring?
Yes. SimpliAuthor supports a bring-your-own-AI model, so you can connect OpenAI, Google Gemini or your organisation’s internal LLM. Your prompts, content and data stay under your control and aren’t locked to a single vendor.
After I build a course, how do I deliver and sell it?
SimpliAuthor is part of the SimpliTrain suite. Courses you author flow seamlessly into SimpliTrain’s LMS for delivery and compliance tracking, TMS for instructor-led and blended programs, LXP for learner discovery, and a built-in storefront so training providers can sell courses online — all without exports or manual hand-offs.
Stop rebuilding content that already exists.
If your training lives in files, documents, and old courses, SimpliAuthor turns it into something you can actually use.
