For business instructors with their own material
Your course,in your own voice.Without the production work.
Upload the lectures you already have. Blended turns them into short lessons with captions, notes, knowledge checks and exams, and shows you who actually did the work.
Free for instructors. Nothing reaches students until you publish.
Where this starts
It usually starts with a course you didn’t plan for.
Nobody rebuilds a course for fun. It happens when one lands on you, with a start date attached.
A new prep
You know the material. What you don’t have is the months it takes to turn it into a course.
An inherited course
Someone else’s slides, someone else’s order, and data that stopped being current years ago.
A course going online
What worked in the room now has to work on a screen, without becoming a three-hour recorded lecture.
A course no textbook fits
The book covers half of what you teach, in an order you would never choose.
Your options, honestly
What you would normally do
Assign the publisher bundle
- The upside
- It is ready on day one.
- The catch
- It comes with their order, their examples and a price your students feel. Most of them won’t open it, and the answers to its question banks are a search away.
Build it all yourself
- The upside
- Your voice and your order.
- The catch
- Also your evenings: recording, re-recording, editing, and typing every quiz into the LMS by hand.
Wait for help
- The upside
- Instructional designers and media teams do excellent work.
- The catch
- When they have room for your course this term. Often they don’t.
What good looks like
Your material, in your order, in your voice, with the structure and practice students need and evidence of who did the work. Ready for this term, not next year.
How it works
Start with what you already have.
Upload your lectures
Zoom recordings, lecture capture, narrated slide recordings, even a phone video. Up to 10 GB each, and no re-recording.
Blended does the production work
Long recordings become short, topic-sized lessons with captions, a transcript and notes. Blended drafts knowledge checks and exams from what you actually said.
You review, then publish
Approve the splits, change any question, reorder anything. Your course runs inside Canvas or Blackboard, and grades sync.
Nothing reaches students until you publish.
Want it polished? Blended can rebuild the visuals from what you said and clean up the audio, and you see every change before it goes out.
Who actually did the work
Know who prepared, not just who pressed play.
Watching isn’t learning, so Blended doesn’t stop at views. You see how much of each lesson every student actually watched, and how that lines up with their knowledge checks and quiz scores. Students see the same numbers, so the conversation starts from facts.
- Time actually watched, per student and per lesson. Skipping doesn’t count.
- Knowledge-check attempts after every lesson.
- Watch time next to quiz scores, so you can spot who is stuck.
- Grades that sync to your LMS gradebook.
Grades you can stand behind
Nothing is AI-proof. A course can be designed so the grade holds.
Every student gets their own numbers
Question pools and randomized values mean students don’t all see the same exam, so there is no single answer key to pass around.
Take the exam off the screen
Give the same exam on paper. Print the answer sheets, scan them, and Blended grades them.
Make practice count
Short knowledge checks after each lesson can carry part of the grade, so the final exam isn’t carrying all of it.
Still you. Still yours.
Your students learn from you.
Your face, your voice, your examples. Blended does the production, and the teaching stays yours.
Your course belongs to you.
- You own what you upload and everything Blended builds from it.
- We never republish your material, or share it with other instructors unless you say so.
- We don’t train AI models on your content without your consent.
- If you leave, you have at least 30 days to get your material back.
A note from Sam
We’re early with this, and I would rather say so than dress it up. The first instructors teaching from their own lectures on Blended started this year, in finance and real estate, mostly online.
What they told us is on this page. They wanted their own material, their own order and their own voice, without spending every evening on production. That is the whole idea.
If you would like to talk it through before you start, book a time and you will get me, not a sales team.
