Experts draft it themselves
Cora makes it much easier for experts to turn their knowledge into a strong initial draft

Course back up and running
It was easy to go in, create an actor with a voice, and get the course back up and running. Faster than redoing the course...

Easy updates, real savings
The ease of content update and cost savings are remarkable.
Mentor Group
90% lower video production cost
Scaling and maintaining content has been cost-prohibiting, but with Colossyan, we were able to cut around 90% of our video production costs.
An AI agent, plus everything
a real production needs.
Give Cora your existing policies, decks or SOPs and get a complete video plan back in minutes, with every scene yours to review and approve. Then ship it in 120+ languages, wrap it into a full course, or make it interactive, without opening another tool.

Colossyan Learn
LESSON 1 · START SECURE
Build secure defaults from day one
Learn the simple habits that protect your accounts, messages, and devices throughout the workday.
Most breaches start with an ordinary moment, a reused password, a link that looked internal, a laptop left unlocked. This lesson covers the defaults that remove those moments from your day.

Training goes out of date faster than you can build it.
Most teams still juggle an authoring tool, a video tool and a translation agency, so every update means starting over. Teams on Colossyan draft in an afternoon, keep the final say on every scene, and update without rebuilding. Here's how Paramount, AmeriSave and others made the switch.

FAQ
Questions, answered.
Learning Pool acquired Elucidat in October 2025. In August 2026 Learning Pool renamed itself Confirm, and Elucidat is now sold as Create. Confirm says existing accounts, content and workflows continue under the new name. The legacy Elucidat Author product is still documented, but Author projects cannot be moved into Create.
Create has no native AI avatar video. You embed or upload Synthesia videos, which means regenerating in Synthesia and re-uploading after each change. In Colossyan, AI avatar video is generated inside the course lesson, so you edit the script and regenerate in one place.
Export each course as a SCORM 1.2 or 2004 package and upload it to Cora, which rebuilds it as an editable course. We have not tested Elucidat packages yet, so review the result before publishing. Your source PDFs and slide decks can come straight in, and your brand kit applies to every course.
Yes. The Starter plan is free with no credit card, with unlimited courses, AI course drafts and 20 minutes of video a month. SCORM export starts on Professional, at $59 a month billed yearly, with 5 course and 5 video exports a month. Enterprise adds unlimited exports and single sign-on.
Colossyan holds a SOC 2 Type II report and is GDPR compliant. Data is encrypted in transit with TLS 1.3 and at rest with AES-256, and customer content is not used to train AI models. Enterprise adds SAML or OIDC single sign-on. Security teams can request the SOC 2 report and policies through our Trust Center.
It is a 30-minute call with our team. Bring a real document, deck or existing course, and we build a first draft with you, show how video, quizzes and SCORM export fit your LMS, and agree a scoped plan. If you would rather explore on your own first, start free with no card.
