Edlib connects to learning management systems through LTI, which can send results to the LMS; setup guidance includes Moodle instructions. It also documents integrations with third-party audio, video, and image APIs. Edlib is available on the web and can be self-hosted. Its self-hosted open-source edition is free under GPL 3.0. Teams costs $23 a month per user or 276 USD per year, and includes 40+ H5P content types, unlimited creation and usage, content versioning, improved H5P library version control, and 23 GB storage.
