We Didn't Set Out to Build This But Here's What Changed Everything.
We didn’t start out building an authoring tool.
In fact, we began with animated learning content. As Kriya Stack, our first few projects involved designing custom explainer videos and motion graphics for schools and corporate L&D teams. We loved the storytelling. We loved making concepts visual and simple.
But something kept coming up. Over and over again.
"This video is great… but how do we make it interactive?"
Every client wanted to do more with their videos. Make them part of a course. Add questions. Track learning. Export SCORM. Share on LMS platforms. But when they tried the tools available…
They hit walls. Clunky UX. Overcomplicated editors. And don’t even get me started on SCORM exports that feel like disarming a bomb.
That’s when we hit our why. We realized:
The learning experience isn’t broken because of content. It’s broken because of what happens after content is made.
So we decided to build what we wished existed. A tool that:
Turns any video into an interactive lesson
Supports micro + macro questions (quizzes during and after video)
Lets you export SCORM easily
And works in 103 languages — because learning isn’t English-only
We called it Kriya Learn.
It took us three pivots to get it right. We built internal prototypes. Tested it with existing clients. Ditched features we thought were cool but distracted from the core. And when one of our clients said:
“Wait… I can create a full training lesson in 30 mins?”
That’s when we knew we were onto something.
We’re still a small team. Still bootstrapped. Still learning. But we’re launching publicly for the first time on Product Hunt this Tuesday, July 16.
If you're in EdTech, L&D, or building learning tools yourself, we’d love your thoughts:

Building Kriya Learn has been a grind. But it’s also been worth it.
Thanks for reading. Hope you’ll check it out and tell us what you think.
