Cheap plan, big invoice
The base subscription looks affordable until it turns out that the website builder, the campaigns and the branding are sold as separate packages.
Courses, a landing page, payments, roles, notifications and analytics — in one plan and one account. No extra charges per module.
Comparison tables all look the same: check marks next to sixty line items. The difference shows up six months in, when the content is uploaded, the students are registered and the annual payment has already gone through.

The platform holds your revenue
Students' money lands in the service's account, payouts follow a schedule, and the platform's percentage is added on top of the bank's fee.
Beautiful demo, a quarter-long rollout
To launch the first course you suddenly need an integrator, an instructional designer and three rounds of approval. Testing a hypothesis quickly is out of the question.
Half the features exist to fill a row in a table
The list has sixty items, and twelve of them get used in daily work. Which twelve exactly — nobody knows in advance, because the demo shows an ideal scenario on prepared data. You find out in the third month, when moving is already expensive: the content is uploaded, the students are used to it, the integrations are configured.
You pick a system for today, and a year later it can't keep up
A platform for selling courses can't handle employee onboarding, and a corporate LMS can't accept payments. The company takes out a second subscription, and the data splits across two databases again: students here, employees there, and no consolidated report in either place.
Six differences you don't see in a comparison table — you see them in your second month of work.
The payment gateway is connected to your account, not the platform's. Ten payment systems are available, along with different currencies and cryptocurrency. You only pay the acquirer's fee — the platform takes no percentage of turnover.
On most platforms: the revenue lands in their account first, payouts follow a schedule, and the service's percentage is added to the bank's fee.
The landing page pulls the course contents from the admin panel: change the module structure and the page updates itself — no rewriting the curriculum by hand. And any lesson can be opened in demo mode, so a visitor watches it in full without signing up, giving a phone number or entering an SMS code.
Why this affects sales: the main objection when buying a course is "I don't know what's inside or whether the delivery suits me". An open lesson removes it before payment, not after. On most platforms the demo is hidden behind a signup form, and part of the audience drops off while typing in a phone number.
A full landing page with blocks, your own backgrounds, a demo lesson, payment acceptance and SEO settings. No separate subscription for a website.
On most platforms: the landing page lives on a third-party service you pay for separately and move leads out of by hand.
Paid courses for an outside audience and private employee training run on the same engine. Only the plans and the access settings change.
On most platforms: those are two different products, two invoices and two unconnected user databases.
The student records an answer on a webcam straight from their account, with no prompts and no editing. The reviewer checks the answer against a predefined key.
On most platforms: there's no way to assess speech and reasoning remotely.
Everyone who completes the course joins a shared database of specialists. You can recommend them to employers or take them onto your own projects.
On most platforms: once the certificate is issued, contact with the graduate ends.
Your own branding, an open API for linking up with a third-party CRM, and the option to order the functionality you're missing.
On most platforms: all of this only unlocks on an enterprise plan with an annual contract.
The website builder, the chatbot, the campaigns and the branding are not sold as separate packages.
Only your acquirer's fee. The more you sell, the better value the platform becomes.
Enough to build a course and a landing page and run the whole chain through to the first payment.
On the left — what an HR director or a school owner runs into with a typical LMS. On the right — how the same job is handled in LMSka.
The website, the campaigns, the bot and the branding turn out to be separate lines on the invoice.
The website builder, the chatbot, the campaigns, the roles and the analytics are included. You can plan the training budget a year ahead.
A cash gap while you wait for payouts, and the platform's percentage on top of the bank's fee.
10 payment gateways, different currencies and crypto. The money is in your account on the day of payment, with no percentage of turnover.
A front-end developer for the landing page, an integrator for payments, an instructional designer for the structure.
Lessons, the landing page, forms, plans and roles are assembled with a mouse. You only need a developer for API integration.
All you know is how many people signed up and how many made it to the end.
A performance table, time spent per lesson, completion statistics, a ranking and an export of summary data to a file.
Bringing in a lecturer or a manager means opening up the entire account to them, finances included.
A co-organizer, a lecturer, a curator and a sales manager each get their own account and their own set of actions, down to specific lessons.
The course structure and the student database have to be rebuilt from scratch by hand.
A standard scenario: the support team helps move the materials and the database and set the platform up for your format.
The modules don't just sit side by side in one account: data is passed from block to block, so there's no need to move anything between systems by hand.
Not a single junction requires moving data between services by hand
Twelve modules grouped into four sets. Each one comes with a short summary and an example of how the feature changes the working day of an HR manager or a course owner.
Everything that turns interest into a paid order and money in your account: from the landing page to automatic access delivery.
Orders, statuses, payments and the student database live in one place instead of in your inbox, a messenger and a Google spreadsheet.

A manager opens the Kanban board and sees a dozen orders marked "unpaid". He calls them, and closes half of them the same day. Those orders used to sit around as unread emails.
The course page is assembled from blocks, pulls the curriculum straight from the admin panel and opens selected lessons in demo mode. No front-end developer needed.

The author opened lesson three in demo mode — the one that walks through a real case. A visitor watches it without signing up, sees the delivery and the depth, and goes on to pay without ever asking "so what's actually inside?". Meanwhile nobody is rewriting the curriculum on the landing page: it is pulled from the admin panel and updated itself when the author added a new module.
The student pays the way they prefer, the money goes to your account, access opens by itself. The organizer isn't part of the chain.

A student in Poland pays by card, a student in the UAE pays in cryptocurrency. Both get access instantly, and the money reaches the school's account the same day instead of following someone else's payout schedule.
Signup, payment, order status changes and access delivery all happen without a human involved, at any hour of the day.

While the author was asleep, three people bought the course, got access and opened the first lesson. In the morning he saw it as a single line in the chatbot summary — and spent no time at all handing out access.
The reason a student or an employee logs into the account at all: lesson content, checking what has been learned, and packaging the result.
Video, text, slide decks, files and live streams come together in a single lesson instead of scattering across three services.

A product course has video from the factory floor, a PDF spec sheet and a test on product characteristics built into it. A new manager watches and reads in one window instead of collecting materials from three work chats.
Four types of assignment cover factual knowledge, thinking and communication skills alike. Points are counted automatically.

A candidate for a support role records a video answer to a typical customer request. In three minutes the manager sees both their grasp of the internal policy and their manner of speaking — something a CV never shows.
The training looks like part of your company: your own style, your own certificates, your own graduate database.

A graduate receives a diploma with the school's logo and a QR code, and joins the shared database of specialists. A month later the school recommends them for a contract — and that becomes a selling point for the next cohort.
How to delegate work to the team without opening everything to everyone, and how to keep a student engaged through to the end of the course.
Every role has its own account and its own set of actions. Permissions are granted precisely, down to a specific lesson.

A guest expert runs only their own module: they see their own students and their homework, give grades and reply in the chat. The school's revenue, the full student database and the plan settings stay invisible to them.
Every important event arrives in your messenger: a new signup, a payment, a failed payment, a student's question.

A failed payment alert landed in the bot. The manager messaged the student five minutes later, while they were still at the computer with their card out. An order that usually gets lost was closed.
Personal communication inside the account plus automatic scenarios that follow up with the people who signed up but never paid.

A triggered sequence follows up on its own with everyone who signed up and didn't pay: a reminder on the day of the order, a useful piece of material on day two, the plan's deadline on day three. The author set the scenario up once and never went back to it.
What you base your training program decisions on, and what happens when the platform needs to be connected to the rest of your stack.
Not just "how many finished", but which specific lesson eats up the time and which assignment gets failed most often.

The table shows it plainly: everyone takes twice as long on the lesson about working with the CRM, and passes its test on the third attempt. The lesson was split in two — the next cohort got through that block without snags and without a flood of questions to the curator.
The cloud, access from any device, an open API and help moving your training over from another platform.

A company moved over from its previous platform along with its course structure and its employee database. Training never stopped: a new group started on LMSka while the current one finished the course on the old system.
Four requests that usually bring someone to an LMS feature list in the first place.
The payment gateway is connected to your account, not the platform's. Ten payment systems are available, along with different currencies and cryptocurrency — which matters when your students live in different countries. LMSka takes no percentage of turnover: you only pay your own acquirer's fee, so the economics of the course don't get worse as sales grow.
How payment worksPaid courses for an outside audience and private employee training run on the same engine: the same lessons, tests, roles and reports, with different access and plan settings. There's no need to keep two subscriptions and reconcile data from two databases, and the experience built up on your sales courses gets reused in internal training.
How onboarding worksThe account, the landing page and the certificates are styled in your corporate identity with your own domain connected. The open API links the platform to a third-party CRM, and any missing functionality is built on request — you don't have to wait for the button you need to show up on the product's general roadmap.
Technical capabilitiesMoving doesn't mean building the course from scratch: our team transfers the lesson structure, the materials and the student database. On plans of 6 months or more the migration is free. Usually the new cohort is launched on LMSka while the current one finishes the course on the old system — so training doesn't stop for a single day.
Migration termsTwenty questions people ask when they compare LMSka with other distance learning systems.
Comparison tables don't answer the main question — whether the thing is comfortable to work in every day. Build a course and a landing page and see for yourself.
No card needed. We'll help with the setup and with moving over from another platform.
