Getting Started with Course Extraction

Getting Started with Course Extraction

Course Extraction converts Adobe Captivate courses into modern formats. Extract all content — text, images, audio, and metadata — and export to PowerPoint, Word, or import directly into Articulate Rise.

Why Use Course Extraction

  • Locked in Captivate? Can't easily reuse or repurpose your course content
  • Manual extraction means spending hours copying text and images one by one
  • Format limitations — Stuck with Captivate formats that don't work on modern platforms

What You Get

  • Chrome Extension for Rise — Import extracted courses directly into Articulate Rise with one click
  • Complete Extraction — All text, images, audio, and metadata extracted automatically
  • PowerPoint Export — Convert courses to editable PowerPoint presentations with coordinate-perfect positioning
  • Word Documents — Generate Word documents with all course content for easy editing and review
  • Audio Transcription — Automatically transcribe all audio narration using AI
  • AI Content Cleaning — Organize and clean your content structure automatically

How It Works

  1. Upload — Drop your Captivate ZIP file
  2. Extract — AI processes your content
  3. Export — Import to Rise, download as PPTX, or DOCX

Spark Costs

  • Extract + Export: 500 Sparks
  • Rise Import (via Chrome extension): 2,050 Sparks
