Near-Life Platform Overview

The Interactive Simulation Authoring Platform

Turn your learning content into high-stakes decision simulations.

Traditional scenario training is slow to build and hard to scale. Turn standard video, 360 video/VR, slides, and images into interactive digital role-play and decision-making simulations using Near-Life's AI-assisted platform. Embed directly into Storyline, Rise, or your existing LMS with full SCORM/xAPI tracking.

Loved by learners. Easy for creators

Build interactive learning content in four simple steps

Near-Life number 1

Map your scenario

Use intuitive branching tools or AI-assisted generation to outline the decisions, consequences, and learner pathways.

Near-Life number 2

Set logic, scoring & feedback

Define branching outcomes, apply scoring, add debriefs, and create feedback screens tailored to learner choices.

Near-Life number 3

Add your media

Upload your existing videos, images, slides, or screen recordings — or generate new assets using integrated AI media options.

Near-Life number 4

Publish anywhere

Embed within Storyline or Rise, deliver directly through your LMS, or embed and share anywhere. Compatible with SCORM/xAPI/LTI.

Fast to build. Simple to update. Easy to scale.

Simulation power without the complexity

Traditional elearning can’t handle rich branching. It can take months to build complex learning paths, or require expensive tools and specialist skills. Near-Life changes this:

  • Higher-fidelity than typical authoring tools
  • More immersive than simple interactive video tools
  • Much faster than custom development
  • More cost-effective and easier to use than alternatives
  • No specialist skills needed

This is simulation design made for real-world L&D teams, not specialist studios.

Or Near-Life Studios can build it for you...

Near-Life platform

Give your team the tools to create sophisticated, interactive learning simulations in-house. Design branching scenarios, add feedback and scoring, and bring real-world decisions to life – without coding or specialist development skills.

Near-Life Studios

Bring us your learning challenge and our team can take it from there. From learning design and scenario development to content creation and production, we’ll create the complete immersive experience for you.
