Hi! I’m looking to add some options to my shortlist of LMS SaaS to investigate to see whether they meet my requirements.
So far, I’m considering:
Which other LMS solutions provide enough API access to make it possible to build a completely customized front end?
I used TI at a prior job and evaluated Absorb and decided not to pursue it at my current job. TI is a nice system but like any LMS, there are going to be areas it falls short. Between the two, I would choose TI. I don’t have the technical knowledge in the API world to offer other solutions, but the two on your list caught my eye and wanted to share. good luck!
Check out edloomio. They offer headless option.
I think there are different ways to go full headless mode. I am seeing Learnie (mylearnie.com) port entire communities into built out pages or they are embedding the micro lessons right into anything from emails, websites, slack or other places but it isn’t really a full featured LMS like the two you are referring to, but a community microlearning platform.

Hey u/ptrin - My team are 4500+ hours into building a product (CourseLayer) that might meet your requirements.
It was originally developed as a replacement for Teachable, since their API is fairly limited and doesn’t support a full headless implementation. Since then we’ve been working on getting it SaaS ready.
Everything you can do through the LMS admin interface is exposed through an endpoint.
It’s currently running in production for a couple of clients (one with Next.js, the other with React Native), but for full transparency, we’re still in MVP mode so it might not be mature enough for your situation.
