360Learning is a French collaborative LMS, known for content co-creation by internal experts.
Cards works on complementary ground: retention. Where 360Learning excels at producing and distributing learning paths with your internal experts, Cards tracks the dated status of each skill and reactivates those that are coming due, through Learning Routine®. Cards also offers an MCP connector so you can manage your content from your AI (Claude, ChatGPT, Copilot, Mistral). The two can be combined: Cards is installed alongside an existing LMS.
An LMS records who took which course. Cards adds the real status of each skill: up to date, to reactivate or outdated, with the date of the last proof. You move from a training history to an actionable skills inventory.
A training history: who took which learning path, and how far they got.
The dated status of each skill, and automatic reactivation of those that go out of date.
This page compares the Cards offering and 360Learning. On the Cards side, two components are part of the comparison: Cards Authoring Tool for producing microlearning modules (SCORM export, generative AI, MCP, AI Agents), and Cards Platform for the Learning Routine® retention engine, mobile delivery and retention measurement. The two can be combined or activated separately.
360Learning has established itself as a leading collaborative LMS, driven by content co-creation by internal experts. Cards picks up from there: where the learning path ends, retention begins. That's what leads Training Managers to combine the two.
360Learning's AI generates courses, translates and recommends learning paths. Cards Authoring Tool's AI generates a complete microlearning learning path in French (text, visuals, quizzes, self-assessment) in under two minutes, from a brief, a PDF, a PPT or a URL. Cards adds measurement of real retention at D+30.
360Learning uses gamification and social learning (comments, likes, forums) to sustain engagement. Cards Platform adds natively microlearning formats: automatic spaced reminders, adaptive quizzes, measurement of memorization at D+30. Engagement opens the door, retention builds the reflex.
Cards publishes its comparison criteria, including those where 360Learning keeps the advantage: multi-expert co-creation and the breadth of the integrations catalog. Everyone can then position the two tools against their own needs.
Your content stays manageable from the tool your teams already use. Cards provides a native MCP connector, compatible with Claude, ChatGPT, Copilot and Mistral. Activation takes 5 minutes and your data stays hosted with you.
Once the learning path is complete and engagement measured, Cards opens the next phase. Cards Authoring Tool is natively compatible with the Cards platform, which adds the Learning Routine® retention engine, mobile and Microsoft Teams delivery, and measurement of real retention at D+30. An add-on you can activate when your retention challenges call for it.
Cards provides an MCP (Model Context Protocol) server. In practice: your external AI (Claude, ChatGPT, Microsoft Copilot, Mistral, or your organization's sovereign LLM) can drive Cards directly from your usual AI interface. You ask Claude to create a GDPR learning path, Cards generates it. You ask your Copilot to analyze the rotation of existing content, Cards answers. A capability available today at Cards, while 360Learning announces its own MCP server as coming soon.

Create, Analyze, Edit, Challenge: four AI agents in Cards, trained on your training context. They cover design, learning path audits and challenging what has been learned.
Cards measures real retention at D+30 through Learning Routine®, with automatic spaced reminders. You know what remains usable in the field, course by course.
Cards is added to 360Learning and handles the retention phase. Setup is smooth, with continuity of service.
Cards Authoring Tool is installed alongside 360Learning: Learning Routine® retention engine, agentic AI, MCP connector. Your content continues to live in 360Learning. Cards Platform adds the Learning Routine® retention engine, mobile and Teams delivery, and measurement of real retention at D+30. This page compares the full Cards offering with 360Learning.
Yes. Cards Authoring Tool exports to SCORM 1.2 and SCORM 2004. Your Cards content integrates into any LMS on the market, including 360Learning, Cornerstone, Workplace or TalentSoft. PDF export is also available.
Yes. Cards provides an MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that lets any compatible AI (Claude, ChatGPT, Copilot, Mistral, sovereign LLM) generate, edit or query your Cards content directly from your usual AI interface. Activation in 5 minutes. 360Learning also announces an MCP server, listed as coming soon on its product page.
Four specialized agents: Create (generate a complete learning path from a brief), Analyze (query your retention data in natural language), Edit (rephrase, translate, shorten), Challenge (audit a learning path, identify areas at risk of being forgotten). A scope that covers design, auditing and challenging what has been learned, whereas 360Learning's AI focuses on content creation and recommendation.
Not through direct import (different proprietary formats). However, Cards' AI and MCP let you quickly recreate your existing content from the sources (PDF, PPT, doc) in a few hours, or in a few minutes if you drive the recreation from Claude or Copilot via MCP.
Cards is a complement. It adds the retention and retention-measurement layer on top of the LMS you already use. For complex interactive scenarios like Storyline (simulations, advanced branching), Cards covers most needs through situational exercises and AI-generated adaptive quizzes.
Yes, that's the major advantage of the Cards Authoring Tool Enterprise plan (€1,990 excl. VAT/year/user): the license is transferable from one employee to another at any time, with no fees or contractual delay. At 360Learning, the terms depend on your contract.
Cards Authoring Tool starts at €1,490 excl. VAT/year/user (Standard) or €1,990 excl. VAT/year/user. Cards runs on an annual flat-fee model per user, with a transferable Enterprise license, pricing on quote. At 360Learning, pricing is also on quote, based on your headcount and the modules activated. Ask both for a quote to compare on your actual scope.
Your data stays hosted on Cards infrastructure in Europe, in compliance with GDPR. During an MCP request, the AI only accesses the data needed to respond to your instruction, and only for the duration of the request. The data stays with you. Authentication by a unique token per organization.
Cards is designed in France and hosted in the EU, natively GDPR-compliant. 360Learning is also a French company. On this point, both solutions meet the same requirements; the difference lies in retention.
Yes, it's an exclusive option. Cards Authoring Tool is natively compatible with the Cards platform, which adds the Learning Routine® retention engine (automatic spaced reminders), mobile delivery, Microsoft Teams integration and measurement of real retention over time.
