The export price label in this index contains a $0 or €0 figure. Read the price note for hosting, a badge, or a quota.

H5P content types and Lumi Desktop are free and open source. H5P.com sells hosted accounts; a 2026 secondary source cites managed plans from about $8.99 per month. That dollar figure was not read off h5p.com for this pass, so it is not the price in the table. The table price is the free path that produces a SCORM file.

SCORM, xAPI, and cmi5

This is the same support row as the export grid. Partial means the export exists with a limit. Unclear means the sources do not say. Open the export answer.

Standards for H5P, the plan named in this index, and whether that row is claimed or tested.
Standard	Support	Plan required	Evidence
SCORM 1.2	Partial	Lumi Desktop (free). Not the H5P plugin by itself. H5P.com is a paid host that also offers SCORM tracking. H5P’s own plugin integrates by LTI or as a Moodle activity. A standalone SCORM 1.2 zip comes from Lumi wrapping the content. That is a second tool, and it is free.	Claimed
SCORM 2004	Partial	Lumi Desktop (free), or a hosted H5P.com plan Lumi is documented as wrapping H5P into SCORM 1.2 or SCORM 2004. Confirm which manifest the Lumi version you installed writes.	Claimed
xAPI (Tin Can)	Partial	H5P plugin inside a host that accepts xAPI statements (for example the Moodle H5P integration), or H5P.com H5P emits xAPI statements. That is not the same as downloading an xAPI zip from a free account. Statements only land if the host or an LRS is connected.	Claimed
cmi5	Unclear	No plan named cmi5 is not the format Lumi or core H5P is documented as exporting here.	Unverified
