Purchased Tier 3 and Refunded Quickly: Definitely NOT Worth It
I’m honestly surprised this product has received four- and five-star reviews on AppSumo. I purchased Tier 3 with high hopes and excitement, but my experience was disappointing.
I followed all the steps to create a course, even uploading a full PDF to provide structured content. Unfortunately, the results were far from usable. I’ve tried similar tools before, and while they weren’t perfect, they were significantly better than this.
I have nothing against the company or its founders, but I genuinely struggled to see how others are rating this so highly. If your goal is to generate a low-effort course with minimal involvement, this might work. However, the e-learning market is highly competitive, and success depends more on marketing and client acquisition than just content creation.
If you rely on AI to build an entire course with little input, you’ll likely end up with something low-quality that needs to be sold at a very low price—raising questions about profitability. Perhaps it has value in certain niche areas that don’t require complex knowledge, but in my opinion, AI alone isn’t advanced enough to handle this process effectively without significant human effort.
This is just my honest take after testing the product.

Edited Feb 12, 2025Hello Sye
Many thanks for your review. I have checked on what you produced and you have selected to produce a bite size course and not extended any of the topics. The system has generated what you asked for. Can I ask that you instead use your prompt "How to motivate employees?" and use the default settings and you will produce a great course like the one attached here - https://openelms.ai/embed/e67ac702e003d11.25287925/ (bare in mind if you upload a detailed pdf it will reflect your needs more accurately).
Please, please, please can I ask you do this and review again. I know designers believe there is an existential threat from AI, but this system allows you to work hand in hand with AI and design even better eLearning once its generated. You did not mention the editor so I assume you did not get that far.
1 star reviews cause us sleepless nights - I would be happy to get on a meeting with you and show you the system if you'd prefer. Please contact us at support@openelms.com to arrange a meeting - 15 minutes and I am sure we can turn this around.
You asked a few days ago about the providence of our company etc. which is odd, but I can assure you the system is used in the UK by both central and local government as well as many multinational organisations. We also have several initiatives in developing countries where we give the system for free to help with educational projects.
Many thanks
