Honen works inside the LMS you already run.
Honen is a full LMS, but it doesn't have to replace yours. Drop it into Canvas, Moodle, Blackboard, and more as an add-on — through LTI, SCORM, Google Classroom, or xAPI and cmi5. Four paths, run as many as you need. No migration required.
Setup is one URL.
Standing Honen up in your LMS is, in practical terms, pasting a single URL, and it's live. Once connected, the heavy lifting is handled automatically through LTI.
Rostering, already done
Honen reads the roster from the LMS, so there is nothing to import or maintain by hand.
Groups, auto-created
Cohorts and groups build themselves from your LMS structure.
Zero sign-in for learners
They're already authenticated through the LMS, so they just start learning.
Two ways to use Honen.
Embed a Honen module so the entire course experience, including the AI tutor, runs inside the LMS and learners never leave. Or launch Honen in a new tab with one click, already signed in, for a full-window experience.
Grades flow back.
The integration is two-way. Grades flow into the native LMS gradebook: completion, score, and Honen's AI-graded mastery, not just a seat-time checkbox. Your existing gradebook stays the system of record.
Two-way assignments
Author from the LMS or in Honen and keep both sides in sync.
Built on LTI 1.3
Deep linking, Names and Roles, and Grade Services. SSO is optional, never required.
Or hand any LMS a SCORM package.
No LTI? No problem. Export any Honen course as a SCORM package and upload the zip to virtually any LMS — Cornerstone, Docebo, TalentLMS, SAP SuccessFactors, Workday Learning, and more. Download a zip, upload a zip, done.
Upload once, never again
The package is thin and live. Edit the course in Honen and every LMS that hosts it updates instantly — no re-export, no re-upload.
Real gradebook reporting
Completion, score, and time spent flow into your LMS gradebook through SCORM 1.2 or 2004.
Unified analytics
SCORM learners still appear in Honen's own dashboards, so you get LMS grades and Honen's deeper analytics from one source of truth.
Or send the whole learning record over xAPI.
For teams who want more than one score per course, Honen speaks xAPI 1.0.3 and cmi5. Every course, topic, activity, test, and project event is generated as a statement server-side, so you get the full picture of how someone learned rather than a single grade at the end.
Forward to your LRS
Point Honen at Watershed, Learning Locker, SCORM Cloud, or any conformant Learning Record Store, with retry if it's unreachable.
Or use Honen's own LRS
Honen serves the xAPI endpoints itself, authenticated with workspace-scoped credentials an admin mints. No separate LRS to buy.
cmi5, the SCORM successor
Thin, live packages like our SCORM export, but relaying the full cmi5 statement sequence to your LMS's LRS.
Native in Google Classroom.
Classroom gets its own add-on rather than an LTI deployment, because native is simply better there. Teachers attach Honen coursework from inside Classroom, and grades come back as a draft for them to review and publish, scaled to the assignment's point value.
Attach from inside Classroom
Graded coursework, ungraded links, materials, and announcements, all discoverable where teachers already work.
Copying a course carries the work
Duplicate a Classroom course and the assignment's scope and completion criteria come with it, so two sections are never graded against different work.
Plug into the platform you already run.
Over LTI, the deepest integration: embedded course experience, auto-rostering, and grade passback. Google Classroom has a native add-on, and SCORM, cmi5, and xAPI reach everything else.
Canvas
Full embedded course and tutor, rostering, and grade passback.
Moodle
Full embedded course and tutor, rostering, and grade passback.
Blackboard
Full embedded course and tutor, rostering, and grade passback.
Frequently Asked Questions
Here's what to know about Honen, what you can turn into a course, how teams use it, and how we keep your content safe.
No. Honen drops into the LMS you already own as an add-on. Keep your LMS, your roster, your gradebook, and your SSO, and add the agentic course experience and AI tutor on top.
With LTI, it's pasting a single URL — rostering, group creation, and sign-in are then handled automatically. With SCORM or cmi5, it's downloading a zip and uploading it to your LMS. With Google Classroom, it's installing the add-on. Either way, no migration.
No. Learners are already authenticated through the LMS, so they never sign in to Honen separately.
Over LTI: Canvas, Blackboard, Brightspace, Moodle, and Skilljar, each with the embedded course and tutor, auto-rostering, and grade passback. Google Classroom has a native add-on. Package-based corporate systems — Cornerstone, Docebo, SAP SuccessFactors, Workday Learning, TalentLMS — are covered by SCORM or cmi5. You don't need to know which standard your LMS speaks: name the platform and we'll route it.
Through LTI Assignment and Grade Services. Completion, score, and Honen's AI-graded mastery flow into your native gradebook, which stays the system of record.
Use SCORM. Export any Honen course as a SCORM package and upload the zip to virtually any LMS. You still get completion, score, and time-spent reporting in your gradebook — SCORM support is near-universal.
LTI for the deepest integration — auto-rostering, embedded experience, and server-to-server grade passback. SCORM for maximum portability when you just want a package any LMS can host. The Google Classroom add-on if that's what your teachers use. xAPI or cmi5 if you run a Learning Record Store and want the full learning record rather than one score per course. All four are independent and simultaneous, so you can run every one of them at once across different platforms.
Yes, both. Honen generates xAPI 1.0.3 statements server-side for course, topic, activity, test, and project events, and can forward them to your Learning Record Store — Watershed, Learning Locker, SCORM Cloud — with retry. Honen also serves the xAPI endpoints itself, so you don't need a separate LRS, authenticated with workspace-scoped credentials an admin mints. And cmi5 export gives you the SCORM successor format as a thin, live package.
No — that direction isn't supported. Honen produces packages and statements rather than playing third-party ones, so it isn't a SCORM or xAPI content player. Your existing packages keep running in your LMS alongside Honen courses.
No. Honen's SCORM package is thin and live — it loads your live course rather than a frozen copy. Edit the course in Honen and every LMS that hosts the package reflects the change instantly. You only re-export if you change the package's settings.
