Is Mindstamp an LMS, and which LMS platforms does it work with?
Short answer
No. Mindstamp is interactive video software, not a learning management system. It does not enroll learners, assign courses or keep transcripts. You deliver Mindstamp videos through your LMS with a SCORM package, an embed or a link, and Mindstamp records what each learner watched and answered.
Which LMS platforms work
Copy link to Which LMS platforms workAny LMS that imports SCORM 1.2 or SCORM 2004 packages should accept a Mindstamp SCORM package. This includes the common platforms that support those standards, such as Canvas, Moodle, Blackboard and Cornerstone.
Mindstamp does not publish a list of tested LMS platforms. Before you roll out a course, upload one package to your LMS and run it as a test learner. Check that completion and the score appear in the LMS gradebook or transcript.

Three ways to deliver a video in an LMS
Copy link to Three ways to deliver a video in an LMS- SCORM package (Core and higher plans): the LMS records completion and a score. Mindstamp records the full detail. The package passes the LMS learner name and ID to Mindstamp, so both systems show the same learner.
- Embed code: paste the iframe into an LMS page or lesson. Mindstamp records the view, but the LMS gradebook gets nothing. Identify learners with lead capture or URL parameters.
- Share link: link to the video from the course. This works the same as an embed for tracking.
What your LMS must allow
Copy link to What your LMS must allow- The LMS must allow content in an iframe from the Mindstamp player address. A SCORM package and an embed both load the hosted video.
- Learners need an internet connection. A SCORM package does not contain the video file.
- If your LMS blocks outside content, ask your LMS administrator to allow https://embed.mindstamp.com before launch. If your videos use a custom domain, allow that domain too.
What Mindstamp does not do
Copy link to What Mindstamp does not do- It does not export xAPI or cmi5. See xAPI and cmi5.
- It does not assign courses, send enrollment reminders or keep LMS transcripts.
- It does not replace your LMS reports. It adds question-level detail that most LMS reports do not show.
