## ToolGPA grades

**GPA: 2.4 out of 4**, graded Oct 17, 2026. LearnWorlds is the one for people who care how a course teaches: interactive video, proper assessments, SCORM and certificates, plus a community and a site builder. Starter is $24 a month but charges $5 a sale, so most sellers want Pro Trainer at $79. Watch the learner caps: 2,000 active learners a month even on the $249 plan.

- **Value for money: C.** Starter is $24 a month billed yearly plus $5 a paid enrollment. At $2,000 of sales a month that's $124 if you sell $100 courses, $74 at $200. Pro Trainer at $79 has no fees, so most sellers land on $79 a month, inside this category's usual range.
- **Free plan and trial: C.** No free plan, but a 30-day trial of the core features, as long as any in this category. The listing doesn't say it needs a card.
- **Features: B.** An AI course builder, interactive video, assessments with many question types, certificates, SCORM, a community, live classes, a site builder with funnels and selling tools. Nothing in the listing shows a gap; automations and the API wait for Learning Center.
- **Ease of use: C.** No App Store rating on record. There's a lot here, from interactive video to SCORM, so expect a learning curve before your school looks right.
- **Platforms and integrations: B.** Web, with Stripe, PayPal, Shopify, Zoom, Teams, HubSpot and Zapier among 50+ integrations. Students get an app only through the branded app add-on, whose price isn't listed.

## Keep it, or make your own?

**Keep it.** To replace LearnWorlds you would be making newsletters sent to thousands of people that still reach the inbox. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one. It costs $288 a year.

- You could make: Online courses: an app builder makes this well.
- You could not: Newsletters sent to thousands of people that still reach the inbox.
- You could not: A members' space with posts, chat and events that people keep coming back to.
- You could not: It plugs into other products, Stripe, PayPal and Shopify among them, and has an API.
- You could not: AI features, unless you pay a model provider for each request yourself.
- You could not: People on the other end: live sessions. No app builder makes those.
- You could not: What a company asks for before it lets staff use something: single sign-on.
- You could not: The depth: we grade its features B, which means it covers the whole job.
