Book Creator vs Sutori

Book Creator is a classroom tool for students and teachers to create books and show learning through text, images, audio and video. Users can record voice, images or video in the app, work together on books in real time, and leave feedback as audio, video or text comments. The product describes more than 130 built-in accessibility features, including speech-to-text, text-to-speech, screen reader support and video captions. Translation can cover text, audio, comments, captions and entire books. Books and libraries can be published, shared by QR code, downloaded as ePub or printed as PDFs. It supports fixed-layout books and imports PDFs and EPUB files created with Book Creator. The free Starter plan costs nothing and includes one library with up to 40 books and unlimited students; a private My Books library can hold 40 more. There is no per-student cost or limit, and no limit on page count or audio and video duration. It runs on Android, iOS, macOS, web and Windows.

Sutori is a web-based timeline tool for K–12 history and social studies classrooms. Teachers and learners can build presentations from templates or a blank story, adding text, media, quizzes, and polls. Stories support real-time collaboration, with the creator able to invite unlimited collaborators, and can be converted into PowerPoint presentations. Sutori integrates with Google Classroom and Microsoft 365 and supports LTI-based learning systems including Blackboard, Canvas, D2L, PowerSchool, Moodle, and Schoology. Students entering through an integrated LMS receive accounts automatically. The free Sutori Essential plan costs nothing and permits unlimited presentations, but creation is limited to text and image items. New users get a 30-day Sutori Unlimited trial before moving to the free plan; educators can add 30 days by inviting three fellow educators. Unlimited and Pro subscriptions renew every 365 days. Sutori identifies the service as COPPA- and GDPR-compliant.
