Bottom line

Colossyan is an AI avatar video and course builder made for onboarding and training. It turns existing documents into interactive videos and courses, exports SCORM for your LMS, and starts free, with Professional at $59 a month billed annually for small HR and L&D teams.

Stands out for: Built around learning: unlimited course creation even on the free plan, quizzes and branching, and SCORM export on the $59 plan rather than enterprise only. It is SOC 2 Type II certified and does not train AI models on customer content.

Watch out for: Minutes are tight, 30 NEO minutes a month on Professional, and unused minutes do not roll over. Unlimited SCORM, SSO and analytics need Enterprise.
