Mindsmith vs. Adobe Captivate
AI is the foundation, not a feature. See the difference that makes for your courses.
| Mindsmith | Adobe Captivate | |
|---|---|---|
| AI-native course generation | Full courses from your source material in a single afternoon | No AI generation; every slide and interaction built manually |
| Learning curve | Intuitive browser-based editor. Your team is productive on day one. | Steep learning curve with a complex desktop application that takes weeks to master |
| Automatic LMS sync | Update once and sync everywhere with our dynamic SCORM | Manual re-publish and re-upload for every change |
| Pricing model | Flexible plans with a free tier. Start today. | Annual subscription starting ~$33.99/mo per author through Adobe Creative Cloud |
| No desktop software required | Fully browser-based. Work from anywhere, on any device. | Requires a Windows or Mac desktop app with significant system requirements |
| Built for the AI era | AI is foundational, not decorative. Built this way from day one. | A legacy tool with roots in the Flash era, rebuilt multiple times but still desktop-first |
Your content is yours
We built Mindsmith so your team can move fast without second-guessing where your data goes. Enterprise-grade security is the baseline here, not an upsell.
SOC 2 Type II Compliant
Independently audited controls for security, availability, and confidentiality. Your compliance team can check this one off now.
Your Data Stays Yours
We never use your content to train AI models. Your proprietary material remains exactly that -- proprietary.
Encryption Everywhere
AES-256 encryption at rest, TLS 1.2+ in transit. Your courses and source files are protected at every step.
SSO & SAML
Enterprise plans include single sign-on so your team stays in your identity provider. One fewer password to manage.
Role-Based Access
Control who can create, edit, and publish. The right people see the right things -- nothing more.
99.9% Uptime SLA
Your courses stay live when your learners need them. Hosted on infrastructure built for reliability at scale.
