How we build your learning platform

We start with what you're teaching and how you teach it, then build the platform around that. Not the other way round.

1

Discovery & structure

We sit down with whoever actually runs the learning. That could be a head of department, a training lead, a tutor, or an L&D manager. We map out the courses, the roles, and how progress really needs to be tracked.

2

Content & course import

We pull in whatever you already have. Word docs, PDFs, PowerPoints, YouTube videos, SCORM packages, worksheet libraries. Nothing gets left behind, and nothing needs re-writing from scratch.

3

Build & brand

We build the platform around your courses and the people using them. Student portals, teacher dashboards, parent access, admin tools, assessments, certificates. Whatever your setup actually needs. Fully branded and on your own domain.

4

Launch & improve

We train your team, onboard your first cohort, and stick around to refine things based on how people actually use it. New courses, new features, new integrations. The platform grows with you.

Built for anyone teaching anything

If you're teaching people in a repeatable way, you need a proper home for it. These are the kinds of organisations we build learning platforms for.

Schools

One home for every class, student, and parent

Replace scattered Google Classrooms, email threads, and "did you hand that in?" conversations with a single branded portal that students, parents, and teachers all log into.

  • Student logins with homework, resources, and progress in one place
  • Parent dashboards so they can actually see what's going on
  • Teacher tools for setting work, marking, and tracking attainment
  • Year-group, class, and subject structures built around your timetable
Colleges & Training Providers

Deliver qualifications without the chaos

Run full courses, track learner progress against units and outcomes, and package everything in a way that keeps awarding bodies happy. Built around real curriculum, not a generic template.

  • Course structures tied to units, outcomes, and assessment criteria
  • SCORM packaging so courses can be exported to any compliant LMS
  • Bronze / silver / gold or tiered progression built into worksheets
  • Per-learner progress records you can hand to an awarding body
Tutors & Independents

Look like a proper school, run it on your own

Your students get a real portal to log into. Parents can see progress. You get one place to set work, collect submissions, and track where every student is. No more emailing PDFs around.

  • Student portal for assignments, resources, and lesson plans
  • Parent access so families can see progress without chasing you
  • Assignment submission and marking all in one place
  • Branded with your name, not someone else's
Staff Onboarding

New starters up to speed without a line manager babysitting them

Every new hire gets a structured onboarding path. Documents to read, videos to watch, short assessments, and a dashboard that shows HR exactly who's done what.

  • Role-specific onboarding paths built from your existing docs and decks
  • Completion tracking and automatic nudges for anything overdue
  • Short assessments to prove people actually absorbed the content
  • HR dashboard showing every new starter's progress at a glance
Internal Learning & L&D

Upskill your existing team without buying a generic LMS

Compliance training, product training, sales enablement, soft skills. One branded internal academy instead of five subscriptions and a shared folder full of PowerPoints.

  • Unified internal academy replacing scattered training tools
  • Mandatory vs optional learning tracks for different teams
  • Certificates and completion records for compliance reporting
  • Ties into your HR system so new joiners get enrolled automatically
Product & Customer Training

Teach your customers how to use what you sell

For manufacturers, software companies, and any business that ships something complicated. Give your customers a proper academy so they can self-serve. Fewer support tickets. Stickier users.

  • Public or gated customer academy on your own domain
  • Video lessons, PDFs, and hands-on exercises in one place
  • Completion tracking so you know which customers are actually engaging
  • Cuts support tickets and onboarding time dramatically

Everything you'd expect from a serious LMS, built around you

We don't sell you a feature list and ask you to pick a tier. We build the features you actually need, and skip the ones you don't. Here's what's usually in the mix.

Student portal

Secure logins, a clean dashboard of current courses and assignments, progress bars, due dates, and everywhere they need to be in one click.

Parent & guardian access

Separate parent logins that show progress, assignments, and upcoming deadlines for their child. No more "what homework have you got?" conversations.

Teacher & admin dashboards

Tools for setting work, marking submissions, tracking whole-class progress, and spotting students who are falling behind before it becomes a problem.

Assignments & submissions

Upload work, submit online, attach files, add comments. Everything tied back to the student, the course, and the deadline so nothing gets lost.

Progress tracking & achievements

Bronze / silver / gold tiers, unit-level progress, achievement badges, completion certificates. Tracked per user, per course, and exportable.

SCORM & course packaging

Generate SCORM-compliant course packages that can be exported to other LMS platforms, or imported from courses you already own. Works with Word docs, PDFs, PowerPoints, and YouTube.

Content builder from source docs

We've built systems that read Word documents and generate course screens automatically. Opening screens, worksheet layouts, embedded videos, PDFs. Turns a folder of existing content into a live course in minutes.

Multi-role auth & permissions

Students, parents, teachers, admins, external examiners. Each role sees exactly what they should and nothing they shouldn't. Proper security built in from day one.

Integrations with the tools you already use

HR systems for onboarding, SIS / MIS for schools, Google Workspace, Microsoft 365, Stripe for paid courses, Zoom and Google Meet for live lessons. Your LMS plugs into whatever you've already got.

Why custom beats Moodle, Canvas, or Google Classroom

Generic LMS platforms are built for the average customer. If your setup is specific, and it always is, you end up fighting the tool instead of using it.

Built around your workflow

No paying for modules you'll never use or fighting a menu system designed for someone else's school. Every screen in your LMS exists because you need it.

No per-user licences

Off-the-shelf LMS platforms charge per seat, per month, forever. A custom build is a one-off project with cheap ongoing hosting. Your cost doesn't scale linearly with your user count.

Your brand, your domain

Students and parents log into your platform, not a third-party site with your logo bolted on. Makes you look like the professional operation you are.

The tools we use to build learning platforms

We pick the stack to match the job. Here's what usually goes into a custom LMS build.

Supabase

Postgres database, multi-role auth, row-level security, and file storage. The backbone of every platform we build. GDPR-friendly, hosted in the EU.

Cloudflare

Global CDN, DDoS protection, and Workers for serverless functions. Your LMS stays fast and secure whether you've got 30 students or 30,000.

SCORM 1.2 / 2004

The industry standard for packaging learning content. We build to it so your courses can be exported, reused, or handed to awarding bodies when needed.

Python & JavaScript

Custom Python scripts for course generation from Word docs, and JavaScript for everything the student sees in the browser. Fast, maintainable, no bloat.

Stripe

For paid courses, memberships, subscriptions, or per-seat billing. Plugs straight into user access so paying students get instant access.

OpenAI & Claude

For anything AI-powered. Auto-generating quizzes from source material, marking free-text responses, answering student questions, or summarising lessons.

Learning platforms we've built

Frequently asked questions

What is a Learning Management System?+

A Learning Management System (LMS) is a platform that hosts your courses, tracks who has completed what, and gives students, teachers, parents, or staff one place to learn. It replaces scattered PDFs, emails, spreadsheets, and video links with a single branded hub where content lives, progress is tracked, and work gets marked.

Who is a custom LMS for?+

Schools, colleges, private tutors, training providers, and any business that needs to onboard staff or run internal training. If you're teaching people something in a repeatable way, whether that's GCSE maths, compliance training, product onboarding, or apprentice curriculum, a custom LMS gives you a proper home for it.

Why build a custom LMS instead of using Moodle or Google Classroom?+

Off-the-shelf systems like Moodle, Google Classroom and Canvas are built for the average user and get in the way the moment you want anything specific. A custom LMS is built around your exact workflow. Your branding, your course structure, your user roles, your reporting. No licence fees per user and no features you'll never use.

Can you import existing courses, worksheets, or SCORM packages?+

Yes. We've built course builders that read straight from Word documents and generate the LMS pages automatically. We handle SCORM packages, PDFs, PowerPoints, YouTube embeds, and interactive worksheets. If your content exists, we can get it in.

How long does it take to build a custom LMS?+

A focused LMS with student portal, progress tracking, and course content is usually live in 4-8 weeks. Larger platforms with parent access, teacher dashboards, admin tools, assessments, and custom integrations take 8-16 weeks. We phase the build so you get something usable early, then layer features on top.
