What is in the box

The everyday tools first, then the parts that make it yours. Quire is pre-release, so some parts are still being checked.

Built in, not bolted on

Nothing here is a plugin. It all comes in the one product.

Courses
Pages, books, files and activities, with completion and access rules.
Quizzes
Eighteen question types and five ways a quiz can behave.
Grades
Weighted, natural, median or your own formula.
Certificates and badges
Issued when a learner meets the completion rules.
Reports
Completion, participation and compliance.
Email
Messages sent in your client's name, and notifications by web push, SMS, Slack or Teams.

Courses, quizzes and grades

Build courses from pages, books, files and activities.

Mark quizzes and assignments. Let the gradebook add up the marks the way your institution does.

  • Course templates you build once and reuse.
  • Completion rules and access rules.
  • Notifications by email, web push, SMS, Slack or Teams.
  • Reports for completion, participation and compliance.
  • Optional AI help. Each organization picks its provider and sets a budget.
  • Available in 116 locales. English and 20 more are translated in full. All translations are machine made and not yet reviewed.
  • Supports SCORM, xAPI, cmi5, LTI, QTI and OneRoster. Testing against outside conformance suites is not finished.

Every client gets its own space

Organizations can nest, so a group can hand administration to its divisions.

  1. Separate

    Each organization has its own domain, sign-in, theme and email sender.

  2. Walled

    The database keeps each client's data apart. A query that forgets to ask still sees nothing from another client.

  3. Shared on purpose

    Courses, templates and question banks are shared only where you allow it. A large client can move to its own database.

Open to other systems

The product uses the same REST API that you do.

REST API
Described in OpenAPI 3.1. Cursor pagination and idempotency keys.
Webhooks
Signed, retried and replayable from a delivery log.
Sign-in
OIDC, SAML, LDAP, SCIM, passkeys and MFA.
Automation
Rules in the product, an n8n node, a HubSpot app and an MCP server. The n8n and HubSpot listings are not published yet.
Learning tools
LTI 1.3 as platform and as tool. Bring your own H5P provider.
Extensions
Compiled into the build. There is no plugin marketplace.

Run it on your own servers

One Docker Compose file starts the whole platform.

Your data, files and email stay with you. The licence key checks offline.

Upgrades are staged, so people keep working while you roll them out.

An export holds everything a client owns. You can move between hosted and self-hosted.

Built to be audited

  1. Isolate

    Row-level security on every client table. Roles can allow, prevent or prohibit.

  2. Record

    Audit entries are hash-chained with signed checkpoints. A tool checks the chain.

  3. Restrict

    Stored credentials are sealed. No one holds standing access to production. Break-glass access names a reason and expires by itself.

  • Accessibility is tested against WCAG 2.2 AA with automated checks. A manual screen reader pass is still to do.
  • Tools for GDPR requests, retention schedules and consent records are built in.
