The four apps
Compose
A desktop course authoring tool. Lessons made of blocks, exported as SCORM or HTML5.
Snap
A screenshot tool whose library is a plain folder of image files. In development.
Cloud
Browser-based storage where files are encrypted before they are uploaded.
Sotto
Press a shortcut, speak, and the text appears in whatever app has focus. Nothing leaves the machine.
Which one do you need?

Compose. It exports SCORM 1.2 and SCORM 2004 packages, which is what Moodle, Cornerstone,
TalentLMS, SCORM Cloud and most others import. It also exports plain HTML5 if there is no LMS
involved.Start with your first course.

Sotto. It runs Whisper locally with GPU acceleration; no audio ever leaves the machine and
there is no account. Currently Linux only, targeting KDE Plasma on Wayland.See Sotto overview.

Snap is being built for exactly this, but it is not finished and is not downloadable yet.
Today, use whatever screenshot tool your desktop ships and insert the images into Compose as
Image blocks. See the Snap roadmap for what is coming.
What the apps share
One account. A single Mauvely account signs you in to Compose, Snap and Cloud. Sotto has no account at all and never asks for one. See Accounts. One visual language. Compose and Snap deliberately use the same window chrome, the same control shapes and the same colour ramps, so moving between them does not feel like changing tools. Files you own. Compose saves to a.course file on your disk. Snap’s library is a folder of
ordinary PNGs. Sotto writes into whatever app you are already using. Nothing is locked inside a
service — Cloud is the only app that stores anything remotely, and it stores it encrypted.
What Mauvely is not
- It is not a hosted LMS. Compose produces packages; something else delivers and tracks them.
- It is not a team collaboration platform today. Cloud can share individual files and folders with named people or by link, but shared team workspaces are planned, not built.
- It is not cross-platform everywhere. There is no macOS build of anything, and Sotto is Linux only.
