Instancy Learning Record Store vs Veracity Learning

Instancy Learning Record Store is a cloud service that receives and stores learning activity data generated through Experience API (xAPI). It can track activity across web browsers, mobile apps, simulations, performance support, social learning, and business applications. External systems can send data using basic authentication or OAuth, and the LRS can exchange xAPI data with learning management systems. Instancy says the service is integrated with its learning ecosystem for content authoring, delivery, and data reporting. Dashboards and reports with drill-down widgets support analysis; a statement viewer lets users inspect raw xAPI records and filter by user or learning activity. Captured activity can trigger workflows such as assigning the next module or recommending a learning pathway. The LRS supports cmi5 and multi-tenant use. Instancy's learning implementation team can help identify activity and content types, configure the system, and integrate data flows. There is no free plan. A complimentary 30-day trial does not require credit card information, and pricing is on request based on user count, modules, functionality, and learning needs; an initial implementation setup fee applies after subscription activation.

Veracity Learning is a learning and performance data platform built around the Experience API (xAPI) standard. Its Learning Record Store stores and retrieves xAPI statements, including signatures, binary attachments, and document stores. Analytics include default and custom dashboards, a chart builder, graph query tools, and support for common xAPI profiles. Data can be imported or exported as CSV, JSON, or URL-based data dumps, and statements can be forwarded between LRSs. The product provides an advanced search API, Veracity Query Language, and an LRS API for managing learners, lessons, and other data objects or launching content. Separate LRS instances do not share keys, analytics, or databases. Customers can use cloud-hosted SaaS in a browser or install the product on their own network; the SaaS option uses AWS by default. Veracity Lite is a free download with fewer features. Starter is listed at $100 a month, with 5 LRSs, 1GB storage, 100K–1M xAPI statements, and 25K daily API calls. The Learner Portal is a content player, not an LMS.
