## CONTENT

With Trainn, you don’t need five different tools to build a great learning experience.

Trainn combines powerful content creation capabilities with a built-in LMS, so you can go from idea to published courses—all within a single platform.

> **Note:** If you're currently on the *Starter Plan*, upgrade to the *Scale Plan* to access the LMS with **100 Monthly Active Users**, and instantly turn your content into structured lessons for your training courses.

### **Content Creation in Trainn**

**Training Videos**

Video lessons let you visually explain real product workflows through guided, voice-narrated videos. They walk customers step-by-step through how to use your product, making onboarding faster and reducing the need for live 1:1 training demos.

Whether you're onboarding new customers or training at scale, video lessons are a must-have.

**Training Guides**

Guide lessons are of two types: 

1. **Instructional Guides: Context-rich user manuals generated with AI, including screenshots and step-by-step instructions tailored to your product.**
2. **Interactive Guides: Hands-on walkthroughs that guide users through your product in real time, helping them learn by doing.**

**Article Lessons**

Write support articles, help docs, and knowledge base content to provide written learning resources directly inside your courses. Ideal for FAQs, troubleshooting, and feature deep-dives.

### **Already Have Content? No Problem.**

If you're migrating from another LMS or content source, Trainn makes it easy to bring your materials with you:

- Upload existing videos, guides, or documents and enhance them with AI
- Embed external resources as lessons directly within your courses

Once, you have created your training content, you can get started with creating your courses.
