Adobe’s help states that the current Captivate publishes HTML5 packages as SCORM 1.2, SCORM 2004, AICC, and xAPI. The subscription includes the apps; export is not a higher add-on.

What prices does this index list for Articulate Storyline 360 and Adobe Captivate?

Articulate Storyline 360 is listed at $1,449 per seat / year. Confidence: Published list price. The index table uses “$1,449/seat/yr”. Articulate’s pricing page (read 16 Oct 2026) lists Articulate 360 AI Personal at $1,449 per seat per year and Teams at $1,749 per seat per year. Both include Storyline, Rise, and LMS publishing. Frontline starts at $500 per year for unlimited seats and does not include Storyline or LMS publishing. Older “Rise-only” prices are not on that page. Adobe Captivate is listed at $39.99 / month, billed annually. Confidence: Uncertain figure. The index table uses “$39.99/mo annual”. A pricing check dated 20 Sep 2026 read the individual plan as $39.99 per month, billed annually, including Captivate and Captivate Classic. An Adobe FAQ page still says a new individual subscription costs $33.99 per month. Those two public figures disagree, so the dollar amount is marked uncertain even though a paid individual subscription is clearly the entry plan. Team and enterprise licensing are quote-based. The index lists both figures and does not convert currencies or choose a cheaper plan.
