What you get

The power of an LMS, the ease of a simple tool

Small companies need the same results as large ones, with far less time to manage software.

  • Up and running in an afternoon

    Start from a template or your own documents and publish your first training the same day. You need no IT department or training manager.

  • Easy for every employee

    People open a link in their browser, see what to do and continue where they stopped, on a laptop, tablet or phone.

  • Everything in one place

    Training, step-by-step procedures and your knowledge base live together, so you keep one tool up to date.

Sound familiar?

Most LMS tools are built for companies much bigger than yours

These are the reasons small teams give up on training software, or never start.

  • Too much to set up

    Large systems ask for weeks of configuration before anyone learns a thing.

    With Helpable Pick a template or let AI draft a training from your own procedures, and publish it today.

  • Employees can't find their way

    A cluttered screen means people log in once and never come back.

    With Helpable Employees see one page with what to learn, their due dates and their certificates.

  • Training and daily work drift apart

    The training says one thing, the instructions on the floor say another.

    With Helpable Lessons link to your procedures and knowledge base, so training always shows the current version.

  • Reports nobody reads

    Pages of data, and you still can't tell who is ready.

    With Helpable Clear reports per training, team and employee, with completion, overdue training and scores.

Every LMS feature a small business needs

The parts that matter, and nothing that gets in your way.

  • Employee training

    Training with chapters: lessons with text, video, documents, practical tasks and linked procedures. Everything a small team needs to teach the job.

  • Quizzes

    Six question types, a pass mark, attempt limits and question banks. You test understanding the way a larger LMS does.

  • Certificates

    PDF certificates with a public check code, and an expiry date on Business Max. You can show who is trained when a client asks.

  • Recurring training

    Repeat a training every 6, 12 or 24 months on Business Max, so yearly training starts by itself. Nobody keeps a calendar of refreshers.

  • Progress and reports

    Completion, overdue training, average score and pass rate in one view, with CSV export. Reminders do the chasing before and after the due date.

  • Training templates

    Ready-made templates for onboarding, company policies, customer service basics and security awareness that you adapt. You start with real content on day one.

  • Training with AI

    AI drafts a training from your own procedures and articles, with lessons and a quiz. You check the draft and publish.
