Author in Minutes, Not Days

Folge captures a screenshot on every click as you walk through a process. Annotate, blur, reorder, and add text — then export. No timelines, no slides, no scripting. Turn a real workflow into onboarding or training content faster than any traditional e-learning suite.

SCORM export works on the free plan — great for educators and quick trials (screenshots carry a small Folge watermark). A one-time payment removes the watermark and unlocks branding: your logo, colors, and custom CSS. No subscription. Everything runs on your computer.

The SCORM authoring tool for people who don't build courses for a living

Most SCORM authoring tools — iSpring, Articulate, Adobe Captivate — are heavy, subscription-priced e-learning suites built for full-time instructional designers. If all you need is to turn a documented process into a trackable LMS course, that's a lot of tool for the job.

Folge is a SCORM authoring tool built around screenshots and steps. You capture a workflow the way you'd document any SOP, then export it as a SCORM 1.2 package that plays as a clean step-by-step course and reports completion and time back to your LMS. IT teams, HR, support, and educators use it to ship onboarding and training without learning a course builder.

It's a privacy-first desktop app: capture, edit, and export all happen locally, so sensitive internal processes never touch a cloud.

How to create a SCORM package

From finished guide to LMS course in five steps.

  1. Open your guide and click Export

    Start from any Folge guide — captured screenshots, annotations, multi-image steps, and substeps all carry over.

  2. Choose “SCORM Package”

    It lives in the Documents group of the export screen, alongside PDF and the other formats.

  3. Adjust settings (optional)

    Table of contents, step numbering, description position, logo, fonts, colors, and custom CSS — reusing Folge's Rich HTML settings.

  4. Export the .zip

    Folge builds a single self-contained SCORM 1.2 package and saves it wherever you choose.

  5. Upload to your LMS

    Add it as a SCORM 1.2 course. That's it — no servers, keys, or configuration.

A player built for learners, not a wall of text

The SCORM package plays your guide one step at a time — the same experience whether it runs inside an LMS or as a plain web page.

The SCORM player showing one step per screen
  • ➡️ One step per screen — Back / Next buttons and left/right keyboard arrows.
  • 📊 Progress bar + “Step X of Y” so learners always know where they are.
  • ☰ Contents drawer to jump to any step.
  • 🏷️ Your logo in the header, branding every screen.
  • ✅ “Course complete” screen at the end — which is what marks completion.

Opened outside an LMS, it still plays as a normal web page — it just won't report tracking. Use the in-app Preview button to click through the real player before you export.

What your LMS tracks

When a learner reaches the final Course complete screen, Folge reports:

Completion
Marked completed at the end.
⏱️
Total time
Time spent in the session.

Honest note: a guide is instructional content, not a quiz, so Folge does not report a score or pass/fail — those columns show unknown in your LMS, which is expected and correct. If you need scored assessments, Folge isn't the tool for that part.

Works with any LMS that accepts SCORM 1.2

SCORM export settings and branding options in Folge

Make the course look like yours

SCORM reuses Folge's Rich HTML settings, so you control:

  • Table of contents — on/off and depth
  • Step numbering and description position
  • Your logo in every screen's header
  • Fonts, colors, and image size/format
  • Custom CSS — restyle both the content and the player chrome (header, buttons, progress bar, contents drawer, completion screen)

Branding and custom CSS are unlocked on paid plans. Because a SCORM package often runs inside a locked-down or offline LMS, stick to system or embedded fonts rather than remote web fonts.

SCORM Authoring Tool — Frequently Asked Questions

Is Folge a SCORM authoring tool?

Yes. Folge is a desktop SCORM authoring tool: you capture a process as step-by-step screenshots, annotate it, and export a SCORM 1.2 package (.zip) that you upload to any LMS. Learners get a step-by-step player, and the LMS records completion and time. It's built for turning real workflows into training, rather than for building slide-based e-learning.

Which SCORM version does Folge export?

Folge exports SCORM 1.2, the most widely supported e-learning standard — accepted by essentially every LMS including Cornerstone, Docebo, Moodle, TalentLMS, and SAP SuccessFactors. The package is fully self-contained, so there's no external server or Learning Record Store to configure. xAPI and cmi5 are not currently supported.

Is there a free SCORM authoring tool option?

Yes. SCORM export is available on Folge's free plan, which makes it a genuinely free SCORM authoring tool for educators and anyone who wants to try it. On the free plan, exported screenshots carry a small Folge watermark. A one-time paid license removes the watermark and unlocks branding — your logo, custom colors, and custom CSS.

How do I create a SCORM package in Folge?

Open your guide, click Export, and choose “SCORM Package” from the Documents group. Adjust settings if you like (table of contents, numbering, logo, colors, custom CSS), export the .zip, and upload it to your LMS as a SCORM 1.2 course. No accounts, keys, or servers are needed, and the whole process works offline.

What does the SCORM package track in my LMS?

Folge reports completion (marked completed when the learner reaches the final “Course complete” screen) and total session time. It does not report a score or pass/fail status, because a guide is instructional content rather than a graded quiz — those columns will show “unknown” in your LMS, which is expected and correct.

Can I test the SCORM package before uploading it?

Yes. Folge's in-app Preview button opens the exact learner player so you can click through the course before exporting. To validate real LMS tracking, upload the exported .zip to SCORM Cloud's free tier — it launches the package like a real LMS and shows the completion and time it receives. Folge's SCORM export has been verified end-to-end in SCORM Cloud.

How is Folge different from iSpring or Articulate?

Tools like iSpring and Articulate are full e-learning suites built around slides, timelines, and scored assessments, sold on annual subscriptions. Folge is a lightweight, one-time-purchase desktop app that turns screenshots and steps into a SCORM course in minutes, works entirely offline, and has a free tier. If you need scored quizzes and branching scenarios, a full suite fits better; if you need to ship trackable process training fast, Folge is simpler and far cheaper.

Can I brand and restyle the SCORM course?

Yes, on paid plans. You can add your logo to the player header, set fonts and colors, and inject custom CSS that restyles both your step content and the player itself — the header, buttons, progress bar, contents drawer, and completion screen. Because SCORM packages often run inside offline or locked-down LMS environments, use system or embedded fonts rather than remote web fonts.
