Structured composer
Versioned content with text, media, quizzes, polls, reveals, references, and composed paths.

One core shared across the entire operation
One foundation, multiple surfaces
Start with the hosted experience, embed parts in your product, or own the entire interface. The learning layer remains the same.
Storefront, checkout, authentication, player, cohorts, and analytics are ready — with your organization’s domain and brand.

Change the identity and switch surfaces. The catalog and intake below use the same canonical components consumed by the hosted product.

From the first insight to a product system running in production.
Northstar
Rituals, decisions, and tools for leading teams that grow.
Platform OS
The value of a platform is not the number of screens. It is making content, commerce, identity, learning, and data work on the same model.
Versioned content with text, media, quizzes, polls, reveals, references, and composed paths.
Cards, search, filters, sales pages, embeds, and discovery with your organization’s identity.
Offers, Pix, installments, campaigns, coupons, refunds, taxes, and multiple access conditions.
Reusable forms, uploads, qualification, manual approval, and seat limits.
Player, progress, focus, references, drip, assessments, resume, and certificates.
Scheduled groups, tutors, roles, discussions, featured members, and lifecycle automations.
Affiliates, attribution, commissions, public campaigns, pixels, and marketing integrations.
Commercial funnel, revenue, intake, progress, skill mastery, and operational auditing.
Domain, brand, tokens, content themes, shell, copy, and replaceable components.
Organizations, subteams, and separate roles for editing, finance, and cohorts.
APIs, webhooks, keys, OAuth, MCP, and contracts for integrating without database access.
2FA, passkeys, SSO, audit trails, tenant isolation, and granular permissions.
One lifecycle, not eight tools
Each stage creates signals for the next: intake personalizes the path, learning feeds insights, and events activate the rest of the stack.

Surfaces can coexist. An operation can use hosted experiences for new programs, embeds inside its product, and blocks only where differentiation matters.

One platform, different models
The same infrastructure plays different roles across businesses: monetization, adoption, enablement, certification, or people development.
Sell individual courses, paths, cohorts, and certifications in one unified operation.
From catalog to certificate
Onboard, drive adoption, and certify customers inside the core SaaS product.
Less churn, more activation
Train partners, distributors, and affiliates with rules, progress, and recognition.
An enabled ecosystem
Assessment, evidence, validity, and verifiable issuance for high-rigor programs.
Trusted credentials
Multiple organizations, catalogs, and offers on a shared identity and commerce layer.
Networked supply
Qualification, role-based paths, cohorts, and competency data connected to the business.
Measurable capability
Cursiva exposes the core without leaking database or infrastructure details. Install the UI, consume contracts, or react to events.
Install the experience, connect host callbacks, and change the code whenever you need.

Trust by architecture
A platform is only useful if it remains secure as organizations, integrations, teams, and agents begin sharing the same core.
Data, domains, settings, and permissions respect the tenant on every call.
Email, OAuth, passkeys, 2FA, and SSO bridges for distributed experiences.
Human actions, integrations, and agents leave a queryable operational trail.
Uploads, payments, and side effects stay in the host, outside portable components.
Strategic questions
The difference is the boundary: Cursiva provides the core, surfaces, and contracts required for other experiences to exist on top of it.
Start with hosted Cursiva. Add integrations, embeds, and blocks as your platform grows — without fragmenting content, commerce, or data.
