Each unit is a specialist in its own right — its own teams, methods and clients — sharing a common commitment to instructional quality.
End-to-end curriculum and content for publishers, schools and universities — instructionally sound, standards-mapped and culturally attuned.
Every engagement begins with the behaviour or capability it must change — then works backward to the experience.
Industry nuance for corporates; cultural, religious and national sensitivity for education markets worldwide.
We instrument learning so effectiveness and ROI are demonstrable, not assumed.
There is more noise and misguidance around AI in learning than almost any field we work in. Our job is to cut through it on your behalf.
This domain is evolving fast, and it needs serious handholding. We bring AI in where it measurably improves how people learn — personalisation, support, insight — and we're just as willing to say where it doesn't belong yet. The technology serves the learning. Never the reverse.
"The right question isn't 'where can we add AI?' It's 'where does AI actually make learning better?'"

We design learning experiences that change how people think and perform at work — from the factory floor to the C-suite. Bespoke, evidence-based, and built to measure.
Every service we offer connects to a single commitment: learning that demonstrably improves performance.
We design and develop ILT, VILT, and eLearning programs across domains — from compliance to leadership, onboarding to technical upskilling.
LMS implementation and administration, AI-powered personalisation, AR/VR simulations, and custom learning portals — chosen for your context, not for a spec sheet.
Our proprietary instructional frameworks — Arc, Scaffold, and Signal — give every program a structural logic that accelerates retention and transfer.
Learning needs analysis, capability mapping, L&D function design, and measurement strategy — helping you invest where it matters and stop where it doesn't.
Redesigned a 3-day ILT safety induction into a blended VR + scenario-based program for a large Indian manufacturer.
A modular eLearning suite with regional variants, built on our Signal framework, deployed to a GCC-based bank's entire workforce.
End-to-end design and facilitation of a 6-month blended leadership program for 320 new managers at a top-10 Indian pharma company.
Instructional design without industry fluency produces generic content. We embed deeply in the contexts we work in.
It depends on scope. A 30-minute eLearning module typically takes 6–8 weeks from brief to sign-off. A full blended program with VILT and assessment design runs 12–20 weeks. We'll give you a project-specific timeline after the discovery call.
Yes. Our Pune studio serves clients globally, with particular depth in the GCC, Southeast Asia, and the UK. Our sister unit Legato in Dubai handles education clients in those regions. Byline currently serves corporate L&D everywhere.
We're tool-agnostic but have deep expertise in Articulate 360, Adobe Captivate, and Lectora. We also build custom HTML5 interactives for scenarios requiring richer interaction. We'll recommend the right tool for your LMS and content type.
Almost always. Our content is SCORM 1.2, SCORM 2004, xAPI, and AICC compliant. We've deployed into Cornerstone, SuccessFactors, Moodle, Docebo, Degreed, and a dozen others. If you have an unusual setup, tell us and we'll confirm compatibility early.
We work best on projects of ₹10L and above, or comparable in USD/AED. Below that, the discovery and design process doesn't have enough runway to do the work we're proud of. We occasionally accept smaller pilots when there's a clear path to a larger programme.
Tell us about your learners, your goals, and your timeline. We'll take it from there.
End-to-end curriculum design and content development for publishers, schools, and universities. Instructionally sound, standards-mapped, and culturally attuned for global education markets.
We work at every layer of the education content chain — from standards mapping to the finished student experience.
Scope and sequence development, learning objective frameworks, standards alignment (Common Core, CCSS, UAE MOE, CBSE, Cambridge), and instructional unit design.
Animated explainer videos, interactive simulations, virtual labs, and rich-media digital textbooks — developed with the pedagogy, not bolted on to it.
Item writing, psychometric review, adaptive test design, and learning analytics dashboards — powered by our Metronome platform or integrated into your systems.
WCAG 2.1 AA compliance, PDF remediation, ePub conversion, and accessible eLearning — ensuring every learner can access your content without compromise.
UAE, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Kuwait — with sensitivity to cultural, religious, and language contexts across Arabic and English curricula.
India, Singapore, Malaysia — CBSE, ICSE, MOE Singapore frameworks, and international school curricula across the region.
Cambridge, IB, and Edexcel aligned content for publishers and independent schools operating in international markets.
Scope, sequence, student books, teacher guides, and digital interactives — aligned to the UAE MOE curriculum framework.
Instructional design, multimedia production, and SCORM packaging for 18 online courses across the MBA curriculum.
Item writing, editorial review, psychometric vetting, and Metronome platform integration for a Gulf-region standardised testing programme.
Every deliverable is reviewed against published instructional design standards, accessibility guidelines, and the curriculum frameworks of the target market.
Tell us your grade range, subject matter, and standards framework. We'll scope the rest.
Three focused tools born out of our own production needs — now available to schools, publishers, and institutions directly.
An assessment platform for schools and universities — question authoring, test assembly, delivery, and analytics in one integrated workspace. Built by the team that's been authoring items for national examination boards since 2018.
Rich question editor supporting 24 item types, LaTeX maths, and multimedia embeds. Built-in editorial workflow with role-based review stages.
IRT-based adaptive engine adjusts difficulty in real time. Configurable entry points, branching logic, and mastery thresholds.
Item-level analysis, cohort performance, discrimination index, and curriculum coverage reporting — exportable to Excel and PDF.
Tag every item to your curriculum framework. Instantly generate coverage reports showing gaps and over-representation.
Haptic transforms PDFs and eLearning files into fully accessible, WCAG 2.1 AA compliant content at scale. Designed for publishers and institutions with legacy content libraries that need remediation without a full rebuild.
Automated tagging, reading order correction, alt-text generation, and form field accessibility — then human review before delivery.
Automated WCAG scan of Articulate, Lectora, and HTML5 packages with a prioritised remediation report and fix estimates.
Upload entire content libraries via API or SFTP. Haptic processes at volume — 1,000 pages per hour at full accuracy.
Generate a VPAT-style conformance report for any document or course, ready for institutional procurement requirements.
TUNR converts publisher PDFs into rich, interactive ePubs — with embedded audio narration, interactive glossaries, comprehension checks, and accessibility baked in. From flat file to reading experience without rebuilding from source.
Intelligent conversion that preserves layout intent, table structures, and image placement — not just flow-exported text.
AI-voiced or human-recorded narration, synced at sentence level. Supports 40+ languages including Arabic (RTL) and Urdu.
Drag-in comprehension checks, interactive glossary pop-overs, and embedded video — without authoring tools or HTML knowledge.
Output to EPUB3, KF8/AZW, PDF/UA, and web — one conversion, every format your distribution channel needs.
All three products are available on annual site licences with implementation support from the Legato team.
Perspectives on corporate L&D, curriculum design, edtech, and the responsible use of AI in learning — from the people doing the work.
Most organisations rush to deploy AI tools without asking whether the problem they're solving actually warrants it. Here's a framework for thinking it through.
Most onboarding is information delivery dressed up as learning. We look at the instructional design decisions that make the difference between a learner who retains and one who forgets.
Adapting content for the GCC isn't just about translation. It requires rethinking examples, contexts, imagery, and — sometimes — the underlying pedagogy.
Measurement isn't what you do after a programme. It's what shapes how you design it. A practical look at embedding Kirkpatrick from day one of a learning brief.
Retrofitting accessibility onto finished content is expensive and imperfect. The decisions that determine accessibility are made during scope and sequence, not in production.
Two fields that rarely talk to each other have more to share than either realises. Observations from running both a corporate and an education studio under the same roof.
Compliance training is one of the most hated categories in corporate learning — but it doesn't have to be. Scenario design can turn obligation into something people actually remember.
When tests adapt in real time, the data they generate is fundamentally different from traditional assessments. A look at what teachers need to understand to use that data well.
The thinking behind bringing a corporate studio and an education studio under one roof, and what the first year of running them together taught us about what clients actually need.
Bylearnings is a learning group built on a simple conviction: that rigorous instructional design produces better outcomes than content production at volume.
We started Bylearnings because we saw the same problem in two different sectors — corporate L&D and K-12 education — at the same time: organisations spending money on learning that didn't change behaviour, and learners spending time on content that didn't stick.
Byline was built to solve it in the corporate world. Legato was built to solve it in education. Together they form a group that can follow a learner from their first classroom to their last boardroom — and hold the same standard throughout.
We're based in Pune and Dubai, which puts us at the intersection of the world's fastest-growing corporate learning markets (India, GCC) and its most ambitious education reform agendas (UAE National Agenda, India NEP 2020). That's not an accident.
Our work is measurable by design. Every engagement begins with a question: how will we know this worked? The answer shapes everything that follows.
We'd rather do fewer projects better than more projects faster. Quality is a function of time, attention, and expertise — and we guard all three.
A module is not a deliverable. Changed behaviour is. We orient every engagement around what success looks like after the learning, not during it.
The same learning objective requires a different design in a Saudi school than in a Pune factory. We don't have a template; we have a process.
We use it where it helps and say so. We don't use it where it doesn't and say that too. We're not selling AI; we're selling learning that works.
Everyone who leads a practice at Bylearnings has done the work. No generalists managing specialists here.

Legato HQIf you care about learning that actually changes people, we'd like to talk.
We hire people who care about learning — not just about learning design as a discipline, but about whether the learner on the other end actually gets somewhere.
You'll work on live programmes for real organisations — not demos or internal tools. The feedback is direct and the impact is visible.
We keep teams small so everyone owns a meaningful part of the work. There's no layer of producers between you and the design decisions.
Pune and Dubai teams work closely together. There are real opportunities to move between units and markets as you develop.
Don't see a fit? — we're always interested in strong instructional designers and assessment specialists.
Whether you have a brief ready or you're still figuring out the problem, a conversation is the right place to start.
