What is Adobe Captivate?
Adobe Captivate is an eLearning authoring tool for building interactive, responsive online courses. It uses generative AI to create images, text, and course drafts, imports PowerPoint decks and converts slides into editable native objects, and includes a widget gallery for drag-and-drop interactions, hotspots, flip cards, and timelines without coding. Courses are responsive by default and can be previewed across desktop, tablet, and mobile layouts, with built-in review links for stakeholder feedback that do not require reviewers to install any software.
Adobe Captivate is subscription software billed monthly. The individual plan is $39.99 per month and includes the current Captivate app, Captivate Classic for legacy projects, 100GB of storage, and monthly generative AI credits. Team and enterprise licensing is available through Adobe's Value Incentive Plan or an Enterprise Term License Agreement, both priced on request, and a free trial is available.
