| Decision | Honen | Articulate 360 | iSpring Suite AI |
|---|---|---|---|
| Start the draft | Draft lessons and checks from approved files; review tutor answers. | Rise AI Assistant can build from source documents; Storyline AI Assistant can refine writing on custom slides. | Build in PowerPoint or use AI to draft from slides and files. |

| Revise a released course | Approved Honen content loads through its live package on the next launch. | Rise Connected Packages in Labs can update a hosted SCORM 1.2/2004 course; test it in this LMS. | For a standard SCORM ZIP, edit the original iSpring project, publish again, and test the replacement. |
