One license. Every course, every video, every learner.

Annoto is licensed as a single flat annual fee based on your institution's FTE count, with volume discounts applied automatically at higher FTE tiers. Request a quote and our team will scope it for you.

Many institutions pay separately for video hosting, skill based video assessment, in video quizzes, video discussion, peer feedback and analytics, each priced per seat or per course. One Annoto license covers all of it with unlimited usage, including video hosting and delivery when you want it, so the overlapping contracts and integrations go away.

Yes. Pilots are free, run on the full product with your own courses for a semester, and need no contract. Roll out when you are ready.

FTE stands for full time equivalent, the standard measure your institution already uses for enrollment and staffing. Your license price is based on total institutional FTE, not on how many people use Annoto.

Annoto integrates natively over LTI 1.1 and 1.3, so it works with Canvas, Moodle, Blackboard, Brightspace and any LMS that supports the standard. An LMS is not required: the same license covers a portal, catalogue or custom platform through the JavaScript SDK and REST API, with full support included either way.

Yes. Annoto is built to support FERPA and GDPR requirements and follows WCAG accessibility guidelines for every institution.

Annoto is licensed at the institution level, so a pricing conversation starts with your context rather than a rate card. Instead of counting seats course by course, plans are shaped around how your institution actually teaches: the size of your learner community, the LMS and video platforms you already run, and the depth of analytics and support your teams need. That keeps budgeting predictable for procurement and keeps adoption friction-free for faculty, who never have to wonder whether their course is covered.

Per institution. One license covers every course, department, and semester, with no seat-counting, ever. A single institutional license covers instructors and learners across courses, departments, and semesters. Because Annoto works inside Canvas, Moodle, Blackboard, Brightspace, and Open edX through LTI 1.3, and on top of video platforms such as Kaltura, Panopto, Wistia, YouTube, and Vimeo, one agreement follows your video wherever it lives. Nobody has to reopen the contract each time a new program, department, or campus comes online, and IT keeps a single integration to maintain.

Most institutions begin with a structured pilot: a defined set of courses, a real semester of teaching, and success criteria agreed up front. Pilots include onboarding, LTI configuration, and access to the same time-anchored discussions, in-video quizzes, and attention and comprehension analytics as a full deployment, so your review committee evaluates the product exactly as faculty and students will use it rather than judging a canned demo.

Discussions, quizzes, analytics, and gradebook sync ship in every tier, never as an upsell. Every tier ships the collaboration core: time-anchored discussions, polls and reactions, notes and AI summaries, and an activity feed that keeps classes connected. Completion and gradebook sync and analytics export are part of the platform, not add-ons hidden behind an enterprise wall. Higher tiers deepen institution-wide analytics, admin controls, and support commitments.

Institutions moving off per-seat video tools describe the switch to Annoto as a procurement simplification rather than a new negotiation. A single FTE-based license replaces a patchwork of course-level purchase orders, a pilot behaves exactly like the production deployment that follows it, and every tier ships the same collaboration, quiz, and analytics core so a smaller department is never quietly downgraded. Most renewal conversations end up being about expanding into new departments or campuses under the existing agreement, not renegotiating price, because the FTE figure procurement already tracks for accreditation is the same figure the license is built on.

A typical timeline runs from an initial pricing conversation to a live pilot within a few weeks, and from pilot results to a signed institution-wide agreement within a single semester. Most institutions run this pilot-to-license path with the same procurement contact from first conversation to signed agreement, rather than being handed off between a sales team and a separate onboarding team partway through, which tends to shorten the overall timeline.

At renewal, the license simply tracks your current FTE band: if enrollment grew, you move up a band; if it shrank, you move down. There are no per-view or per-minute meters to reconcile, and no true-up invoices arriving mid-year. Because usage is unlimited within the band, a course that doubles its video activity costs nothing extra, which lets teaching teams push adoption as hard as they like while the budget owner signs one predictable number a year.

No. Annoto is a flat annual license based on your institution's FTE band. Every instructor and learner is covered, and there are no limits or meters on users, videos, minutes watched or storage, so usage can grow without changing the price.

Included. Every license covers the LTI 1.1 and 1.3 integration with Canvas, Moodle, Blackboard, Brightspace and Open edX, support for video platforms such as Kaltura, Panopto, YuJa, YouTube and Vimeo, and the JavaScript SDK, REST API and webhooks for any other site. Setup help and ongoing technical support are part of the license.

Yes. A department or program license runs on the same terms as an institution license. When other departments want to join, you expand to the whole institution under the same agreement rather than starting a new negotiation.

Yes. If you are switching from GoReact, PlayPosit, VoiceThread, FeedbackFruits or a similar tool, we credit the time left on your current contract, so you do not pay twice and can move when it suits your teaching calendar.

We built Annoto to make an impact in education first, so we price it as the lowest of any comparable solution. One license replaces separate tools for video assessment, in video quizzes, video discussion and peer feedback, and covers every learner and instructor.
