Hey Sumo-lings,

Since the launch of Mini Course Generator, we have stuck to one goal: to make course creation and delivery so fast and simple that anyone can share their expertise without feeling overwhelmed. Being part of the 'Tool of the Year' campaign isn't just a honor for us; it also proves we are on the right journey, fueled by our community's amazing contributions.

In 2025, we didn't just add features; we re-engineered the platform based on your feedback. We moved from 'basic' AI generation to Enriched AI Interactions that think like educators. We leveled up from simple text blocks to a Powerful Authoring Suite that rivals the industry giants. Most importantly, we ensured that as we added power, we never lost the speed you love us for.

From ADA compliance and AI voiceovers to building full in-app academies, everything we built this year was about giving you more control and more impact.

Thank you for being the most demanding, supportive, and brilliant community a founder could ask for. We’re keeping the momentum high into 2026 and beyond.

Here are the 7 headlines of our major updates in 2025:

1. Integrated Social Learning Turn static courses into conversations. Drop community spaces directly into any page. (For more details > https://minicoursegenerator.com/social-learning-lms/ )
2. Enriched AI Interaction Builder Use AI to generate context-related interactive elearning elements based on your source. First of its kind among course creation platforms. (For more details > https://minicoursegenerator.com/interactive-elearning-ai-builder/ )
3. Advanced AI Course Creator Add learning objectives for each page, new blocks beyond static text, updated AI models, and more control over AI.
4. Elevated eLearning Authoring Added powerful block sets like image hotspots, nested accordions, and a more powerful in-page AI assistant.
5. Maximized Accessibility Reach everyone with a native ADA compliance widget and AI voiceovers built right in for diverse needs.
6. Optimized Learner Journey Sell more with multi-collection showcase pages, a better payment UX, new header types, course lists, and more. (For more details > https://minicoursegenerator.com/course-landing-page-builder/ )
7. Streamlined In-App Training Embed your academy in your web-app via widgets, use a special app for Intercom Messenger, and use a headless LMS even for mobile apps. (For more details > https://minicoursegenerator.com/headless-lms-for-in-app-training/ )

Let’s build what’s next, together.

Last but not the least, I wish you and to the world happy, peaceful new year,

All the best,

Onur | Co-founder of minicoursegenerator.com

Hi Sumo-lings 👋,

It’s great to be back :) I hope that the community is doing great!

I want to update you about recent changes and our next steps in our journey.

* The major update on the course authoring: 

To make course interfaces more flexible and enable you to reflect your creativity more in terms of learners' experience, we released the drag & drop builder.

Here is the summary of what have been changed: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AObHwRViuqA

* Converting existing documents into mini-courses:

In addition to our existing model, you can now upload your PDFs and turn them into mini-courses. What makes us unique is the flexibility and customization options during this conversion. Check this video out for more details:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZJ-CiE8wb4I

* New updates this week

In the week of 27th of January, we will release new improvements: 

1. New languages to be added to the AI course creation. They will be Czech, Korean, Vietnamese, Thai, Malaysian and Romanian.

2. Visually engaging "Button" blocks will be added.

* Using AI more extensive in the existing course

Although there is already in-page AI-Assistant, we will bring more AI functions into the editor - like generating questions to be added for the end of each section. Expected release: February

* More flexibility on building course landing pages

One major update on the way is the ability to set up your collection page in a much more customized way, like drag & drop webpage builders. By doing so, even if you do not have a website, you can customize a landing page super-fast with your preferences that includes your mini-courses grouped together.

Expected release: March

* We send regular product update emails - check out your "promotions" and "spam" folder in case they do not land into your primary inbox.

Mini Course Generator is back for Sumo Day and here to answer your questions. In this AMA ("ask me anything") recording the team did a quick demo of new features and took questions from the audience about the tool.

If you'd like the opportunity to interact with founders live and ask your questions during webinars like this, sign up for AppSumo Plus today!

Hey Sumo-lings 👋,

It’s great to be back on AppSumo for SumoDays! I’d like to extend my gratitude to the friends at AppSumo for their invitation and efforts in preparing this campaign launch.

Since MCG’s inception in late 2021, we have continuously developed the platform and taken significant steps forward. We are happy to see that we are on the right track, as evidenced by the positive reviews by Sumo-lings and high usage frequency.

Given our large Sumo-ling community from previous years, you might have heard of the MCG brand before, with feedback on both its strengths and areas for improvement. Even if you haven’t, you can easily sign up on our website for free and experience the flows and value our product offers before purchasing codes.

I’d like to announce some significant updates since our last launch:

🔐 Flexibility for learners’ access: From generating leads to selling mini-courses or enabling invitation-only access, you now have a wide range of options regarding who can access and how. We’ve also streamlined the password-less login process for learners through a magic link flow. To learn more, check out these articles: https://intercom.help/mini-course-generator/en/collections/9489129-learners-access-gateways

🔗 New integrations: We now have direct integrations with Stripe, Lemon Squeezy, and Pabbly for accepting payments and adding payment gateways to your mini-course collections. Additionally, we’ve released Zapier and Make integrations for creative automation ideas.

🤖 AI developments: We are keeping pace with rapid advancements in AI by updating our models for even more satisfactory content outputs.

One feature still in development is the ability to convert your resources (e.g., PDFs) into mini-courses. We’re close to releasing this, and it will be live before the end of June. Additionally, there will be a major update to the UX of the course creation flow to provide more flexibility in blending your expertise with AI-generated content.

After June, we have more exciting updates planned, which we are currently prioritizing. We plan to announce the roadmap before June 15th.

I realize this has already become a long post :) If you’ve read this far, thank you so much for your time and interest in MCG. Please contact us with any questions through the live chat widget on your admin dashboard.

Best wishes 💙
