eduMe keeps publishing healthcare training guides while pitching frontline enablement.
eduMe's recent entries are buyer's guides and explainers: healthcare training software by training type, a frontline enablement versus training essay, UK logistics software, the logistics skills gap and Dayforce LMS alternatives. None describes a change to eduMe's own product.
Thinkific's teaching assistant grows into a storefront recommender.
The dated window covers two threads shipped in duplicate: a mobile learning overhaul in April and, in February, the Thinker AI Teaching Assistant for Plus customers plus AI-generated summaries of learner activity. The undated rows carry the quarter forward — Thinker running site-wide with product recommendations, and commerce tools for selling to teams and organizations.

The content targets frontline-heavy verticals, healthcare and logistics in particular, and buyers leaving competitors such as EdApp and Dayforce's LMS. The enablement essay hints at a broader category pitch beyond course delivery, but there is no release yet to back it.
Expect more vertical guides and enablement messaging. The entries do not show what product changes, if any, will follow.

Thinkific is building around the two things that decide whether a course business grows: whether learners finish, and whether they buy again. Thinker started on the first and is now placed on the second, while the commerce work moves the buyer from an individual to an organization. The mobile investment sits underneath both, since neither retention nor repeat purchase happens on desktop for most learners.
With Thinker on every page and recommendations attached, the missing piece is attribution — expect reporting that ties assistant conversations to enrolments, and the Plus-tier gate to be the lever for pricing it.
