PLATFORM · COURSE BUILDER

Create courses without leaving Hotline.

Not everyone has Articulate or Captivate. The built-in course builder lets you author complete courses (pre-work, lessons, quizzes and end-of-course exams) directly inside the platform. No external tools, no export/import cycle.

Two ways to build courses.

Upload existing content

Already have SCORM packages from Storyline, Captivate, or iSpring? Upload the ZIP and Hotline handles the rest, with full runtime compliance for SCORM 1.2 and SCORM 2004.

Build it inside Hotline

No authoring tool? No problem. Create lessons with rich text, images, embedded video, and downloadable documents. Add quizzes with multiple question types. Publish instantly.

No extra software required

What you can create.

Rich text lessons Write formatted content with headings, lists, bold text, links, and inline images. Like writing a document, but it's a lesson.
Video lessons Embed videos directly into lessons. Track viewing progress and set completion rules based on watch time.
Quizzes & assessments Eight question types, from multiple choice and true/false to matching, ordering and numeric answers. Set passing scores, attempt limits, and time limits.
Document downloads Attach PDFs, slide decks, spreadsheets, or any reference material as downloadable resources within a lesson.
Image galleries Add images and diagrams directly into lesson content. Annotate, caption, and arrange them alongside text.
Structured modules Group lessons into modules. Set a sequence so delegates progress through your content in the right order.

Quizzes that actually test knowledge.
