Claro has redefined cloud-based platforms... a unique balance of simplicity and easy access with a robust feature set. 
Michael Rochelle, Chief Consultant and Analyst for Brandon Hall Group
While being a fully HTML5 compliant elearning authoring tool since inception was certainly a revelation to the industry, what makes Claro truly unique is our ability to rapidly introduce new features and respond to customer feedback in no-time-flat. Because Claro is cloud-based, users always have the best, most up-to-date content authoring platform at their fingertips. Since we launched Claro just over a year ago, we have released eight updates! Check out the highlights and release notes from the link on the left.
In addition to thousands of royalty free clipart, symbols and speech bubbles, Claro ships with a library of 30 characters with over 60 poses and 3 different dress styles for each pose.
Claro now comes in a variety of languages. There are 9 more languages for the Course Player and the entire Claro authoring UI is available in 60+ languages (as a beta feature) for workgroup and enterprise customers. A new Aura theme design uses icons instead of English for international use.
Claro users have access to more than 100 fully editable interactive elearning and mlearning templates to jump-start their project and get the creative ideas flowing. And we're always adding more!
With Claro, content collaborators can review AND provide feedback on course content directly on the devices they are targeting - be it smartphone, tablet or desktop.
Claro's animation and events framework allows you to create an unlimited number of user or time driven interactions on any page. Authors can easily add multiple actions as well as timed events that enable you to present content however you desire.
Content objects and media elements that are reusable and updatable across any learning program save time and ensure your material is always accurate and up-to-date. Copy pages and questions from one course to another or share learning objects with any project.
Claro has a lot of things in one place, but a big learning curve ISN'T one of them. Anyone familiar with common office tools will find Claro easy to navigate and will feel like an authoring champion in no time.
Claro's keyboard shortcuts save you valuable time - and let you give your mouse a rest!
Claro continues to redefine ease-of-creation by introducing several enhanced layout features such as smart layout guides, auto alignment, and smart select and deselect.
We've compiled a short video that provides an overview of Claro's template feature. Use templates to get a quick start to developing interactive eLearning and mlearning content for desktops, smart phones or tablets.
Claro's interface stays clean and uncluttered by providing you access to many features ONLY when you need them through context tabs.
Claro takes undo to the next level with the ability to undo multiple actions per individual page. Change your mind on a previous page? No problem, you can go back and undo actions without affecting other pages.
When you're ready to publish a course, you can choose to include page transcripts or page notes. The published course Menu contains the Transcripts or Notes tabs only if you included them. Learners can see the Page Transcripts using the Transcript button on the navigation bar.
Claro has a long list of features to help you make your learning content engaging and interactive. It's all HTML5, so the same interactions work on tablets just as well as laptop browsers - and since it's all wizard-based, you don't have to learn a lick of code.
Page transitions add motion and fluidity to your course content. Claro has several built-in HTML5 compliant transitions, including slide in and out, fade, pop and more.
Layers help you organize and edit complex pages easily and quickly. Show and hide layers, and lock them down once you're ready to prevent inadvertent changes.
Go beyond template-only learning experiences with Claro's easy-to-use wizards for creating your own custom user-initiated actions and events. No programming required!
Insert HTML as reusable content widgets directly on any page. Access the Claro course player API to enable interaction of widgets with content playback - control navigation, get user scores and progress, set variables, and more.
Authors can add timed events to uploaded audio or video, such as showing and hiding images, text panels and more. Claro is an action-based system - so authors don't have to waste time messing around with complex timelines. Just add your event, select the timing and you're done.
Authors can quickly add design borders and effects to images. All of the effects work across all popular modern browsers.
Claro's simple Page linking wizard means you can create any course flow experience you want. Lose the forward button altogether!
Make almost any interactive page you can dream of using Claro's hotspots and button wizards. You don't need Flash and you don't need to be a programmer!
Need square, circular or polygonal hotspots for an image? Claro's programming-free wizard takes care of all the hard work.
Claro has a robust set of assessment features that are both powerful AND easy to use. Test questions can be as simple or complex as you need, meaning you can assess as close to the real world context as possible.
Test questions are quick and easy in Claro. Deliver random questions from test question banks, and create pre- and post-tests without doubling up your effort.
Copy test questions from one course to another, then easily alter them for the different context. Fast AND simple!
Customize and alter Claro test questions to your heart's content. Easily add audio, video or image files or even add buttons and hotspots. Claro test questions go beyond just being templates.
Claro's question randomization features allow you to randomly select the test questions for every individual learner. Build banks of questions for every topic in a course, then tell Claro how to use them.
Easily configure how a test will behave for a learner, from providing instant feedback to controlling test review options and more. Choose to have pre-testing as well!
Claro's customizable feedback options let you provide the feedback your learners need.
Claro's advantages really shine through for teams that need to work together. Being web-based means content isn't spread across hard drives and server folders - it's always all in one place. Bring in team members and give them the content access they need to get the job done.
Give access to your content based on need. Administrative authors can work on all content, Authors are limited to specific projects, and Reviewers can provide feedback but not make changes.
Share completed topics (including associated test questions) across multiple courses AND keep them synchronized for content updates.

Claro has a suite of built-in tools to help you get your projects completed quickly and conveniently and reduce your reliance on other tools along the way. That means costs-savings!
Claro has a rich library of stock images for people, speech bubbles, symbols, and clipart - included at no additional cost. The libraries include powerful and fast image filtering to make it easy to find and insert the images you need.
Claro includes a library of more than 30 characters you can use in any course. Each character comes in more than 100 poses, gestures and facial expressions. The photo-based characters are available in three different clothing styles for each pose!

Claro's desktop sharing includes a built-in meeting manager. Schedule meetings with your SMEs to discuss content issues - and share your Claro workspace to make the discussion clearer.
Claro is great for starting off with the content you've already created and gathered. Connect with other content sources in a hurry - and deliver it all together in a single course!
