From a topic, document, idea, or case to an interactive eLearning course, in minutes.
Mill turns your brief or document into a complete LMS-ready course, in your choice of slide-deck, scroll-down, or narrated-video format. The slide-mode node editor, drag-and-drop slides, AI-generate any single slide on the fly, double-click to edit titles inline, branching scenarios with auto-rewired edges, is built for authors who want a real visual editor, not just a form. Audit trail and sign-off included.

What Mill is, and isn't
Professional courses, produced at extraordinary speed.
Mill is built for
- → SMEs who want to author full learning material for your LMS without becoming full-time course designers
- → L&D teams shipping content with minimum SME dependency, under structured approval steps and an audit trail on every revision
- → Multi-language rollouts where each locale needs parity
- → Course catalogs that change frequently, product training, policy updates
- → Fully responsive, mobile-ready output that drops straight into any LMS
- → Accessibility addressed automatically: WCAG contrast, alt text, keyboard-navigable output
- → Teams that want to spend more on strategy than on production
Mill is not
- → A simulation authoring environment with custom trigger logic or branching-games authoring
- → An AI avatar / talking-head video generator
- → A learning management system, we export SCORM/xAPI, we don't host learners, for that look at our sister product Hall.
- → A one-click generator, but a weak brief still produces a weak course
- → The right tool if your L&D catalog is 3 flagship courses a year
The boring capabilities list
Everything a serious buyer asks about, in one page.
LMS-ready: SCORM 1.2, 2004, xAPI
Drop the export into any modern LMS. Bytewise identical zip across republishes of the same blueprint.
Up to 10 languages per generation pass · 33+ supported
Narration generated by the configured TTS engine per language, translation drift-check on every field.
Slide-deck, scroll-down, or narrated-video format
Pick the experience your audience expects: classic slide navigation, modern long-form scroll, or a narrated video with synced captions. All three render through the same SCORM/xAPI pipeline.
Bring your own AI
Organisations and individuals can pin Mill to the LLM, TTS, and image provider they trust, Claude, OpenAI, ElevenLabs, or your own EU-region endpoint with your own keys. Regulated sector? Lock the model and skip the risk review.
Edit + republish in one click
Section-level editor. Drift red-line on every translated field. The whole course rebuilds and re-exports on save.
Audit-grade version ledger
Every publish writes an immutable row. Two-person e-signature. 21 CFR Part 11-style.
EU AI Act Article 50
Built-in transparency banner + model card drawer. Flip off only if legal says so.
Variety baked in
33+ interactive section types.
Every course Mill generates picks from a deep catalogue of layouts, knowledge checks, and interactive blocks, so learners never sit through a wall of text.
Four authoring modes
From linear scrolls and branching slides to narrated video
Mill ships four course-authoring formats. Scroll mode is the everyday default, vertical block stacks ideal for compliance, onboarding, and knowledge transfer. Slide mode builds branching scenarios, scenes, and per-step feedback, closer to Storyline than a traditional LMS course. Video mode (Beta) turns narrated slides into an MP4 with subtitles. Microlearning ships swipeable card decks for spaced reinforcement. Pick any when you start a new course; all export to SCORM 1.2 / 2004 and work in every supported language.

From brief to interactive course
Four steps, roughly ten minutes.
- 1
Write a brief
Topic, audience, level, duration, languages. Or upload a document / deck / legacy SCORM and Mill reads it.
- 2
Review the structure
Mill's architect proposes sections + learning objectives. Reject, tweak, accept, before any content is written.
- 3
Let it write
Content writer fills each section in your primary language. Translator expands to the rest. TTS narrates. Images generate where they help.
- 4
Publish + share
Download the SCORM/xAPI package, upload to your LMS. Or if you're on ColPort Hall, one-click auto-import.
From the blog
What we learn shipping Mill.
Case study: compliance training that survives an audit
A representative look at how a regulated-industry L&D team uses Mill's version ledger, regulation-change detection, and per-language consistency to answer auditor questions in minutes instead of days.
Gamification in Mill, and why compliance courses default to OFF
Points, badges, and leaderboards make bad compliance training worse, and good onboarding better. Here's the research, and how Mill's three-tier toggle reflects it.
How to build a SCORM course in minutes (without Articulate)
A practical walkthrough of producing a full SCORM 1.2 or 2004 course from a single topic brief (AI-generated structure, narration and images included) in under 10 minutes.
Who Mill is for
Three archetypes we hear from most.
The solo L&D specialist
SMB, 50–500 employees
Before Mill: Expected to ship 10+ courses a year alone; no budget for a full authoring suite plus a freelance narrator.
With Mill: Starts with Mill Standard. Generates a course a week. Keeps their job because they can finally say yes.
The compliance-training lead
Regulated industry (pharma / finance / aviation)
Before Mill: Audit trail is mandatory; AI tools keep failing procurement because they can't answer 'who approved this and when?'
With Mill: Mill's version ledger + e-signature + per-field drift pass regulatory review on the first pass.
The multi-country rollout manager
European HQ, 10+ local subsidiaries
Before Mill: 33-language parity in the usual tools means 33× the cost and timeline.
With Mill: One generation pass produces all languages with translation drift-checked per field.
Small tricks that save hours
Things nobody tells you on your first day with Mill.
Write an audience brief like a casting note
"Non-technical office staff, first two weeks on the job" produces a course 5× more specific than "new employees."
Let the architect propose structure first
Don't edit content. Don't pick section types. Just read the chapter + section plan and either accept or regenerate. 30 seconds well-spent.
Keep the primary language strong
Translator output is only as good as the source. A loose English draft produces loose Dutch + Turkish + Arabic drafts.
Use document mode for regulated topics
Upload the actual SOP. Mill's strict-source mode forbids any claim not anchored in your source, regulator-defensible by default.
Bulk-import legacy SCORMs
Drop an old SCORM zip (from any authoring tool) into Mill. It extracts the text and produces a fresh modern version. Saves redoing 10 years of content.
Check drift before you publish, not after
The red-line badge on every translated field takes 3 seconds per field and catches the "5 mg → 5 ml" class of translation disaster.
FAQ
Questions we hear most.
Will Mill replace our LMS?
No, Mill produces SCORM 1.2, SCORM 2004, and xAPI packages. You upload them to whichever LMS you already run (any market-standard enterprise LMS, open-source Moodle-class systems, or ColPort Hall). Mill stops at the handoff.
What's the real cost per course?
Roughly €0.25–€2.00 of AI spend per media-enabled course on our side, which is inside your subscription's credit allowance. A Team Standard subscription covers ~17 full courses/month. See the pricing page for exact numbers.
Is the output actually good enough to ship?
For 80 % of real-world course volume (compliance, onboarding, product training), yes, with a 20-30 min editor pass. For 20 % of bespoke flagship content, a full e-learning authoring suite is still the better tool. We don't pretend otherwise.
Where does my data live, and which AI runs on it?
All app + database infrastructure is EU-hosted. By default Mill routes AI calls through EU regions, but every organisation (and every solo account) can pin Mill to the LLM, TTS, and image provider they want, Claude, OpenAI, ElevenLabs, or your own private endpoint with your own keys. Regulated sector? Lock the model, route everything through your own infrastructure, and skip the risk review.
Can I edit a course after it's generated, and republish?
Yes. Every section has a structured editor, every translated field shows a drift red-line so you spot drift in seconds, and one click rebuilds the whole course and re-exports the SCORM/xAPI package. The version ledger captures every republish.
Can my compliance team audit a course after the fact?
