What happens to my formatting when I import a Word document?

Headings, lists, bold and italic text, links, tables and embedded images all come through. Heading levels determine the module structure, so a well-structured document produces a well-structured course.

Can I create quiz questions directly from Word?

Yes. Simple tags in your document create knowledge checks, flipcards, callouts and accordions during import, so you can author the interactive parts without leaving Word.

Which SCORM files can I import?

Articulate Rise exports, on the Pro plan. Every authoring tool packages SCORM differently, so we started with Rise and are adding other systems as customers ask for them — tell us which tool you're moving from.

Does importing a PowerPoint deck just make slides?

No. AI reads the deck — including your speaker notes — and groups the slides into modules with real course content, then shows you the proposed structure before anything is created. Your images come across too.

Do I need a paid plan to import a Word document?

No. DOCX import with rich formatting is available on the free plan. PowerPoint import, Articulate Rise import, and building a course from web page URLs are Pro features.

Can I get my content back out afterwards?

Yes. Export any course back to a Word document — every module, block and knowledge check — edit it offline, and re-import it as a fresh course. Your content is never locked in.

The content isn't the problem. The conversion is.

Most organisations already have their training written down. It's in a policy document, an induction manual, a deck someone presented last year, a procedure that lives in the wiki. The knowledge exists and it's usually accurate.

What doesn't exist is a version anyone can learn from — something structured, interactive, trackable, and sitting in the LMS where staff can be assigned it. Getting from one to the other is where the weeks go: copying text into an authoring tool, rebuilding formatting, re-creating the images, writing quiz questions from scratch, then fighting the SCORM export.

That work is conversion, not instructional design. It adds nothing a learner will ever notice, and it's the single biggest reason good content sits in a folder instead of in front of the people who need it.

Start from whatever you have.

Five ways in. All of them produce the same thing: a real, editable course made of blocks.

All plans

Word documents

Import a .docx and keep your formatting — headings become modules, and your images, tables and links come with it. Use simple tags to create quizzes and flipcards straight from the document.

Pro

PowerPoint decks

AI reads your slides and speaker notes, groups them into modules, and drafts the course. You review the proposed structure before anything is created.

Pro

Articulate Rise courses

Moving off Rise? Import your SCORM export and it's rebuilt as an editable course — text, images, tabs, accordions and process blocks converted automatically.

Pro

Documentation & wiki pages

Paste up to 10 URLs — help centre, docs site, internal wiki — and AI builds a structured course from them, including the screenshots already on those pages.

Pro

Any document, with AI

Upload a PDF, a policy, a procedure or a transcript and AI drafts a complete first-pass course: modules, content, and knowledge checks for you to review and edit.

16 block types and 3 layout containers, plus 15+ ready-made templates on Pro. Sometimes the fastest path is building it directly.

Rise is the SCORM format we support today. Every tool packages SCORM differently, so we’re adding others as customers ask — if you’re moving from a different system, tell us which one.

A full course, in under two minutes.

A Word document going in, a finished interactive course coming out. No edits, no preparation — this is the actual import.

A course exported back to a Word document

It goes back out, too

Import isn’t a one-way door.

Bringing content into a tool usually means it lives there now. That’s fine until you need a reviewer who works in Word, a client who wants a document, or an archive you can still open in five years.

Export any course back to a Word file — every module, every block, every knowledge check — edit it wherever you like, and re-import it as a fresh course. The round trip works, which means your content is yours.

Word export is available on Solo and Pro.

What the import actually does

Rich formatting survives

Headings become modules. Lists stay lists. Bold, italics, links, tables and images come through intact — you're not re-typing anything.

Build quizzes from Word

Simple tags in your document create knowledge checks, flipcards, callouts and accordions. Write the interactivity where you're already writing.

Everything stays editable

The import produces a real course made of blocks — not a locked conversion. Rewrite a paragraph, reorder a module, add a quiz.

Export to any LMS

SCORM 1.2 for Moodle, Canvas, TalentLMS, Cornerstone, Docebo and anything else SCORM-compliant. Or standalone HTML that runs anywhere.

And out to documents again

Export the finished course as a Word manual, a storyboard for sign-off, a facilitator guide, or a PowerPoint deck. One source, every format.

AI does the structuring

For PowerPoint and web pages, AI groups content into sensible modules and drafts knowledge checks — and shows you everything before it's created.
