In their own words
Hackiwi
Hackiwi is a security platform for organisational training, phishing simulations, suspicious-message triage and exposure monitoring. Its video and written lessons include interactive knowledge checks; teams can assign learning paths and track completion. The public training library is free to browse without an account, and its content is licensed under CC-BY-4.0. Organisations with up to 20 users can use the full platform free. Phishing campaigns are available only to verified organisations and domains, and track opens, clicks and reports with safety gates and audit logs. Submitted credentials are not retained; only the event is recorded. Staff can forward suspicious messages from desktop or phone mail clients for automated classification and reputation checks. Exposure tools cover scope-locked OSINT, website scanning, dependency CVE tracking, domain monitoring and alerts for newly registered lookalike domains. Hackiwi runs on the web or on an organisation’s own infrastructure under AGPL-3.0. Its simulator is not offered to individuals or families, and organisations above 20 users pay for premium tooling.
SentryMail

The Enterprise LMS adds self-hosted mandatory video training, automatic course assignments for low awareness scores, quizzes, and certificates. Listed integrations include LDAP, Microsoft Graph, SCIM 2.0, OIDC/SSO providers, and SMTP services. Enterprise adds SAML SSO, SIEM exports, and LMS xAPI export.
