Trainual
Docsie
Trainual is an internal playbook for processes, policies and roles, with tests and completion tracking. Teams usually look elsewhere when they cannot get a price without a demo, do not want a one-time $1,000 implementation fee, want to try before they buy, or already have their training on video and want it turned into guides and courses. Here is what Trainual costs today, where it stops, and which alternative fits. If you switch to Docsie, we move your Trainual content over for you.
The best Trainual alternative depends on what you need. To turn training videos into guides, courses, quizzes and certificates at a published price, pick Docsie. For quick click-by-click SOP guides without a training platform, pick Scribe. For narrated how-to videos, pick Guidde.
Pricing
Trainual quotes every plan after a demo. Docsie publishes its prices; each plan includes a set number of seats, monthly AI credits for turning video into docs, and Docsie Learn courses and learners. Prices checked 2026-11-15 on each vendor's own pricing page (Trainual: trainual.com/pricing) and docsie.io/pricing.
What you can know before a sales call
With Trainual you get a quote after a demo, plus a one-time $1,000 implementation fee. With Docsie the numbers are public. Hobby is $25 a month billed yearly (1 seat, 10 courses, 100 learners), Starter is $83 a month billed yearly (5 seats, 25 courses, 250 learners) and Premium is $170 a month billed yearly (15 seats, 50 courses, 500 learners), each with monthly video-to-docs hours and a knowledge base.
Recommendation: If you want an HR-style onboarding hub with e-signatures and role-based training paths, get a Trainual quote and compare. If your training already lives in videos, recordings or PDFs and you want it turned into guides, courses and quizzes at a published price, start Docsie free or book a demo.

Trainual Questions
Q: How much does Trainual cost?
A: As of November 2026, Trainual does not publish prices. All four plans (Core, Pro, Premium and Enterprise) are quoted after a demo, and Trainual says pricing depends on team size. On top of the subscription, Trainual's FAQ lists a one-time $1,000 implementation fee. Prices you find on third-party sites are not on Trainual's own page and may be out of date.
Q: Does Trainual have a free trial or free plan?
A: As of November 2026, Trainual's pricing page lists no free plan and no free trial; it offers a demo instead. Docsie has a free plan with no credit card, 5 free video uploads and a knowledge base on your own domain, and its paid plans start at $25 a month billed yearly.
Q: What is Trainual's implementation fee?
A: Trainual's FAQ states a one-time $1,000 implementation fee and that implementation support is required on every plan. Docsie's prices are published on docsie.io/pricing, and if you switch we migrate your existing Trainual content for you.
Q: Can Trainual turn a video into a training guide?
A: Trainual hosts uploaded videos with automatic transcriptions on Pro and up, and has a built-in screen recorder. Its AI writer drafts documents from text prompts and PDFs; a flow that turns a recorded video into a written step-by-step guide is not documented. Docsie does that directly, with screenshots taken from the video, and can turn the result into a course with quizzes.
Q: What is the best Trainual alternative?
A: Docsie fits teams whose training lives in videos, recordings or PDFs and who want guides, courses, quizzes and certificates at a published price. Scribe fits teams that just need quick click-by-click SOPs. Guidde fits teams that want narrated how-to videos.
Q: Can I move my Trainual content to Docsie?
A: Yes. If you switch, we migrate your existing Trainual content into Docsie for you, so your processes and policies arrive as editable, versioned articles you can turn into courses. Book a demo and bring a few documents or training videos; we will show them in Docsie on the call.
Book a demo, bring a few of your Trainual documents or a training video, and we'll show them rebuilt in Docsie on the call, as a guide and as a course with a quiz. If you switch, our team migrates your library so nothing has to be rewritten.
Free plan includes 5 video uploads and a knowledge base on your own domain. No credit card.
