What Larmer LRS is

Larmer LRS is a learning record store for organisations using xAPI. It captures learning records and provides detailed tracking, reporting, and analytics through dashboards, graphs, a chart builder, advanced graph queries, and AI-assisted natural-language analysis. Its learner portal can host and administer content, allowing people to sign in and launch links, PDFs, videos, SCORM 1.2 courses, and xAPI content. Data teams can import and export CSV or JSON, create URL data dumps, optionally export SQL, and forward statements between LRS instances. An advanced search API and VQL query language support querying and aggregating xAPI data. Dashboards can be embedded in websites and LMS platforms, while MCP connections work with Claude, Microsoft Copilot, Google Gemini, and OpenAI Codex. Deployment is available as SaaS in Larmer Brown’s private cloud or on premise. The product page says it passed the ADL LRS Test Suite for xAPI 2.0 conformance. Subscriptions include technical and telephone support and future upgrades. Pricing is based on activity volume and storage, with rolling monthly or annual subscriptions and no per-user pricing; contact the company for pricing.
