ScenarioSplice is a no-code authoring tool for building branching training scenarios — short interactive lessons where a learner faces a decision, picks a path, and sees the consequences play out. You build a scenario as a visual map of connected pages, where each page presents a situation and the choices the learner can make. The editor lets you drag, zoom, and rearrange pages to see the full decision tree at a glance. When the scenario is ready, you click Assign and get a shareable link you can send to your learners, paste into your LMS, or email to your team. ScenarioSplice runs entirely in the browser — no installs, no downloads, works on desktops, laptops, tablets, and phones. It is built for educators, instructional designers, trainers, and L&D professionals who want to turn "what would you do?" moments into practice opportunities.
Click + New Scenario from the header. ScenarioSplice opens with a decision-tree template already in place: an intro page that sets up the situation, a decision page with two choices, two outcome pages (one for each choice), and a debrief page that summarizes the learning. Click any page on the map to edit its text. Mark pages as correct / partial / incorrect so learners see clear feedback. Add images — diagrams, photos of real-world situations, screenshots of the field you're teaching. Add or rearrange pages as needed. When the scenario reads well, click Assign to publish and get the shareable link.
The scenario map is a visual canvas where each card represents one page in the scenario — a passage the learner reads, ending in a set of decisions. Colored lines between cards represent choices — the options a learner picks to move from one page to the next. Cards with a green indicator are starting pages. Click a card to edit its page. Right-click for a context menu with add-child, test-from-here, and delete. Click a line between cards to edit the choice text or change where it leads. Drag cards to rearrange, scroll to zoom, drag the background to pan. The map updates in real time as you work.
Feedback types are a per-page tag that tells the learner — and you — whether a page represents a correct path, an incorrect one, a partial-credit outcome, or an informational note. When a learner reaches a tagged page, a colored pill appears at the top of the page (Good call, Not quite, Let's review, or Note), and the end-of-scenario debrief recaps every decision they made with its tag. Class results aggregate outcomes by these tags, so you can see what share of learners reached a correct, partial, or incorrect outcome.
Facilitator notes are a private textarea per page, visible only to the author. Use them for anything that shouldn't reach the learner — the learning objective behind the page, the source you cited, the expected facilitation time, notes to yourself about what to revise next. When you share the scenario link, facilitator notes are never rendered. They travel with the scenario when you export or duplicate, but they're yours.
AI is optional and positioned as a drafting helper, not the author. Open any page in the editor and click Write to have the AI draft the page text from the surrounding context. Use Rewrite to tighten existing text or adjust tone. Use Suggest choices to have the AI propose correct-and-plausible-but-flawed decision pairs for the page. Every suggestion appears in an accept-or-reject bar — you decide what stays. The AI understands it is drafting a training scenario, not a novel, so the tone is concrete and educator-voice rather than literary. If you prefer to write everything yourself, just ignore the AI buttons — the scenario editor works perfectly well without them.
Yes. Every page supports an image with alt text for accessibility. Upload a diagram, a photo of a real-world situation, or a screenshot directly from the page editor (PNG, JPG or WebP up to 5 MB), generate one from a short description, or paste a hosted image URL. Alt text is required so your scenarios remain accessible and LMS-compliant. Images appear both in the editor map (as thumbnails on the page card) and in the player (above the page text).
Click Assign in the editor toolbar. ScenarioSplice validates the scenario (flags missing pages, broken links), publishes it as unlisted (not listed in the public library), and opens a modal with a shareable URL. Copy the link and paste it into your LMS, an email, a Slack channel, or wherever your learners go. Anyone with the link can play the scenario in their browser — no sign-in required. You can revoke the link at any time from the same modal. Create a named cohort for each group you assign to (a class, a team, a client) so their results stay separate, and open Class results to see completion rate, outcomes by feedback tag, drop-off pages and the most common paths. Per-learner tracking is not built yet — results are aggregate and learners stay anonymous.
Yes, though ScenarioSplice shines brightest for decision-based scenarios rather than pure recall quizzes. The same editor supports both. A linear quiz is just a scenario where each page asks a question, feedback is shown based on the answer, and the path continues to the next question. There is no dedicated quiz mode (shuffling, numbering, a running score); for many educators the base feature set already covers quiz use cases.
Yes — scenarios are private by default. They remain private until you click Assign, which publishes the scenario as unlisted (accessible to anyone with the link, but not listed in the public library). If you want to unlist a scenario again, click Assign → Revoke link. Nothing you write is shared with other users, and AI drafting requests are routed through OpenRouter which does not retain prompt data after the response is generated. Images you upload are stored privately until you share the scenario link, at which point anyone with the link can see them.
Currently ScenarioSplice does not collect any personally identifiable information from learners. A learner follows an assigned link, plays the scenario anonymously, and no name, email, or identifier is stored. Class results are aggregate: which outcomes learners reached, where they dropped off, which paths were common — never who. If we add per-learner tracking, it will be an explicit per-scenario opt-in with retention and deletion policies in place before it ships. For anything closer to FERPA-grade — student accounts, grade passback to an LMS — the LTI integration will layer on top of your existing LMS's privacy controls, not ours.
Building, assigning and reviewing results is free: unlimited scenarios, unlimited assignment links, cohorts, the full editor, AI drafting assist, images, feedback types, facilitator notes and aggregate Class results. Professional ($19/month, cancel any time) is for delivering under your own brand: your logo, colors and intro/completion text on every learner page, ScenarioSplice attribution removed, a reusable brand kit, access-code-protected links, and CSV export of results. Teams that need several facilitators, multiple brand kits or a custom domain can contact us.
Yes — you can export any scenario as JSON at any time. Your content is yours; we don't believe in lock-in. A single-file HTML export (a self-contained scenario you can upload to an LMS that blocks external links) is coming in a subsequent release.
Check out our sibling product StorySplice — same underlying editor, same accounts, same auth — but tuned for fiction authors rather than educators. Choose-your-own-adventure stories, branching novels, game-style narratives. If you accidentally landed here looking for that, the sign-in works there too.
