Prepared for Edios · Service opportunity

Interactive learning, without replacing the LMS.

Turn passive course video into a guided experience with timed choices, branching, interactive visualizations, and a course-specific AI guide.

01 / The experience

From watching a video to participating in it.

The learner stays inside one visual environment while the format shifts between instructor, decision, exploration, reflection, and follow-up.

01

Timed interaction

The video pauses at intentional moments and presents questions directly over the course frame.

02

Branching choices

Responses can change the next example, explanation, activity, or instructor feedback.

03

Visual exploration

Maps, models, diagrams, and sliders let learners manipulate the idea instead of only hearing it.

04

Course guide

A knowledgeable assistant can answer follow-up questions using only approved course sources.

02 / LMS integration

Three practical ways to put it inside a client’s course.

We choose the lightest method that meets the client’s tracking, security, and reporting needs. An LMS compatibility check comes first.

Fastest pilot

Embed or Web Object

The hosted experience appears directly inside the LMS using an iframe or external web object.

Best for
Proofs and internal pilots
Tracking
Basic or custom
Dependency
LMS must allow embeds
Enterprise scale

LTI + xAPI

Secure launch and identity through LTI; granular learning events flow to an LMS or Learning Record Store.

Best for
Universities and enterprise

Interactive course question displayed over the instructor video

The learner never feels like they left the video.

Selections, instructor responses, graphics, and next steps share one frame and one visual language. That continuity is the product—not just a series of embedded widgets.

03 / Scalable delivery

Build a reusable course engine, not a new website every time.

The first project establishes the system. Future courses primarily swap content, timing, interactions, source material, and branding.

Reusable layer 01

Interactive Course Engine

16:9 player, timed pauses, quizzes, branching, captions, voiceover, music, and visualization slots.

Reusable layer 02

Secure Knowledge Layer

Client-approved documents, grounded answers, source citations, guardrails, evaluations, and usage logs.

Reusable layer 03

LMS Adapter

Delivery through iframe, SCORM, LTI, or xAPI based on the client’s platform and reporting requirements.

Course configuration

Content, not recoding

Videos, timestamps, questions, branches, colors, logos, and knowledge sources live in a repeatable course structure.

The hybrid model is the sweet spot.

The learner remains in the existing LMS. Edios hosts and maintains the advanced interactive and AI components behind it. A separate academy is only needed when an LMS blocks integration or the client wants a standalone customer-learning destination.

04 / Implementation

Start with one lesson. Prove it inside the real LMS.

A pilot keeps the first commitment focused while resolving the technical, instructional, and operational questions that determine a larger rollout.

LMS audit

Confirm platform, embed rules, SCORM/LTI support, reporting, security, and expected use.

Content map

Choose one lesson, decision points, visualization, approved sources, and learning outcome.

Prototype

Build the learner experience and the appropriate LMS integration method.

Sandbox test

Test launch, responsive behavior, progress, completion, audio, captions, and data flow.

Accessibility + QA

Keyboard, screen reader, transcript, contrast, motion, privacy, and answer evaluation.

Launch + learn

Monitor usage, review learner questions, refine sources, and scope the next course.

A knowledgeable guide can continue the lesson.

The production version would retrieve answers from client-approved course documents, cite the source, and clearly say when the answer is not in the material.

05 / Recommended pricing

A clear entry point, with room to scale.

These are planning ranges for positioning and early conversations. Final pricing depends on LMS access, course length, video production, interaction depth, security, and instructional design.

LMS feasibility audit$2,500–$5,000Compatibility review, architecture, technical scope, and budget.
Interactive lesson pilot$12,000–$20,000One 5–10 minute lesson, 2–4 interactions, one visualization, captions, and iframe or SCORM delivery.
Full interactive course$30,000–$60,000Approximately 20–30 minutes, branching, 4–8 interactions, LMS tracking, accessibility, and QA.
Knowledgeable chatbot add-on$15,000–$35,000Source preparation, retrieval, citations, guardrails, evaluation, backend, and logging.
Reusable multi-course platform$75,000–$150,000+Component library, configuration system, LTI/xAPI, administration, and multiple templates.
Additional configured courses$8,000–$25,000 eachBased on length, video needs, branching, visualizations, and localization.

No AI · client hosted

$0/month

Possible when the client hosts the completed package and ongoing support is excluded.

Managed course

$150–$500/month

Hosting, monitoring, backups, and minor maintenance for an externally hosted experience.

Managed AI guide

$750–$1,500/month

Hosting, monitoring, usage allowance, source updates, analytics, and support.

Token usage is rarely the main cost. Model calls for a small course may cost only tens of dollars per month. The managed fee pays for dependable hosting, monitoring, source maintenance, analytics, privacy controls, support, and keeping the LMS integration healthy. Enterprise support can range from $1,500–$5,000+ per month.
06 / Scope guardrails

What Edios should establish before saying yes.

The experience is highly achievable, but the right technical and content questions protect the budget and schedule.

Ask the client

  • LMS name, version, and administrator contact
  • SCORM, LTI, xAPI, iframe, and SSO support
  • Completion, score, grade, and analytics requirements
  • Expected users, concurrency, and monthly questions
  • Privacy, security, accessibility, and language needs

Define responsibility

  • Client supplies and approves authoritative source material
  • Edios leads production and experience design
  • Instructional design is client-provided or separately partnered
  • Video production and translation are scoped separately
  • LMS vendor fees and professional services are pass-through costs

Client-facing position

Turn passive course video into a guided learning experience.

Edios adds timed interactions, branching, visual exploration, and an approved-source course guide—while the client keeps the learning system they already use.
