Is it worth upgrading? Value & ROI by plan

Upgrading isn't just about lifting limits. Each Coursebox plan unlocks capabilities that save time, protect revenue, or let more of your team work together. Here are the most common reasons teams move up, and the value they get. For current pricing, see coursebox.ai/pricing.

“We're selling our own courses” → Creator

Free watermarks your content, takes a commission on sales, and does not let you export a course. Creator removes the watermark, lets you keep 100% of your sales, and unlocks certificates and PDF, HTML and Dynamic SCORM export — so you can ship under your own name and hand learners something they can keep. The ROI is simple: a single retained sale usually covers the difference against losing a cut of every transaction.

“We want it to look like ours” → Pro

Pro is the branding and integration step. You get your own logo, colours and fonts across the portal, control of portal settings and the login screen, and a much larger AI allowance — 7,000 page credits a month against Creator's 500, plus custom AI avatar video minutes every month (Creator includes custom avatar video only on yearly billing).

It is also the plan that opens up delivery through someone else's system: LTI, SCORM import, and Self-Hosted SCORM. That last one matters more than it sounds — a self-hosted package runs standalone, so it keeps working offline, on closed networks, and after your subscription ends. Dynamic SCORM does not.

“We have a team and real learners to manage” → Pro + LMS

This is the most common team upgrade, and the biggest jump in what the platform does. Pro + LMS turns Coursebox into a full learning platform on your own domain, and adds the things you need once you are managing people rather than just publishing content:

• Learner and group management

• Learning pathways and gamification — points, badges and the leaderboard

• Resource library and calendar

• Announcements and the Q&A forum

• API access and the branded mobile app, both available as add-ons

Worth knowing: Pro and Pro + LMS include the same AI credit allowance. You are not upgrading for credits here — you are upgrading for the LMS.

On team size: every paid plan includes one admin seat, and on Pro and above you can add more at any time without changing plan. Each extra seat also adds a full AI credit allowance, so a second admin doubles your credits as well as giving a second person somewhere to work. Learners never count as admins, and every plan supports unlimited learners.

“We're rolling out across the organisation” → Enterprise

For org-wide or compliance-driven rollouts, Enterprise adds SSO (a paid add-on at USD $3,000/year, and only available here), multiple portals, a 99.9% uptime SLA, your choice of hosting region, a dedicated support contact, and AI capacity sized to your rollout. The value is operational: secure single sign-on for staff, reporting your stakeholders trust, and a supported rollout instead of a DIY migration.

Enterprise works differently from the plans above it. It is not bought online. Enterprise is sold under a signed agreement with a minimum 2-year initial term, and that is what makes MSAs, DPAs, SLAs, vendor security assessments and procurement support possible. Every other plan is self-serve: bought by card under our standard published terms. If your organisation requires a signed agreement or a security review of any kind, that is an Enterprise conversation. See Coursebox Enterprise.
