Built-in · No CMS Required

The content source that doesn't need a content source

Most LMSs make you bring a CMS. With Native, the LMS is your content source. Author full courses in-app with an AI co-writer: no Contentful or Sanity subscription, no content model to design, no developer involvement to ship.

Which one is right for you?

The honest two-question test

Pick Native if…

  • You don't already use a headless CMS
  • You want the fastest path from idea to published course
  • Your authors are SMEs, not full-time content editors
  • You want AI help drafting course material
  • You're a small or mid-sized team without developers to set up a CMS

Pick Contentful or Sanity if…

  • Your courses share content with your website, app, or docs
  • You already have a Contentful or Sanity space and a content team in it
  • You need editorial workflows like multi-stage approvals or scheduled publishes
  • Your developers want full control of the content model
Each workspace reads from one source, and courses do not move between sources.

What Native gives you

The shortest path from "we should make a course" to a published one

Zero setup, zero subscription

No CMS account, nothing to connect, no content model to design. Log in, click Create Course, start writing.

  • No Contentful or Sanity bill
  • No developer setup time
  • Your workspace is ready from the first minute

An AI co-writer in the sidebar

Ask for an outline, a quiz, flashcards, or a rewrite. The AI writes directly into your course, not a copy-paste chat window.

  • Generates full course outlines
  • Inserts quizzes and flashcards in place
  • Keeps each lesson's chat history

One source per workspace

Native courses live in LMSMore. If your team moves to Contentful or Sanity, courses there are read from your own space.

  • Nothing to connect for native
  • Contentful or Sanity read live
  • CMS courses never copied

Built for non-developers

Drag-and-drop modules. Slash commands for blocks. Drop in a cover image. Hit publish when the checks pass.

  • Block-based editor
  • Six custom learning blocks
  • Checks before publishing, with quick fixes
