The free LMS that doesn't get more expensive as you reach more people.
Most platforms charge you more the moment your program succeeds: more learners, more members, more cost. MyPass LMS is open-core, so it works the other way. The core learning management system is free to self-host, with unlimited registered users, no per-seat licensing and no feature tiers to unlock.
Trusted by 130+ associations, schools, nonprofits, certification bodies & training teams
When your program grows, your LMS bill shouldn't grow with it.
Per-seat pricing quietly turns success into a penalty. The more people you train, the more you pay, so teams start rationing access to the very thing meant to help everyone.
You launch
A focused program for a small group. Costs feel manageable.
It works
Word spreads. More members, volunteers and employees want in.
Seats add up
Every new learner is another line on the invoice at renewal.
Growth gets capped
You start limiting who gets access to protect the budget, not the mission.
Train everyone. Count no seats.
MyPass LMS is open-core, so reach never works against your budget. Add your whole audience (members, staff, volunteers and customers) without licensing tiers, user caps or feature paywalls standing in the way.
One learning management system for the entire learning lifecycle.
Delivery, certification, reporting, automation, integrations and AI-powered workflows, together in a single system, so your team stops stitching tools and starts teaching.
Learning delivery
Courses, paths, blended and instructor-led training in formats learners actually finish.
Certifications
Issue, track and renew certificates automatically, with expiry and renewal reminders.
Reporting & analytics
See progress, completion and compliance across your whole audience at a glance.
Automation
Enrollments, reminders, renewals and reassignments that run themselves.
Integrations
Connect your AMS, CRM, SSO and tools so records stay in sync, not in silos.
AI workflows
Generate courses, surveys and content, and guide learners with a built-in assistant.
A free LMS that isn't limited.
Community Edition is the free, open core of MyPass LMS. It is a complete self-hosted LMS you run on your own server: the real platform, not a stripped-down trial. The Windows bundle is available now; macOS and Linux bundles are on the way.
Up and running in three steps
No sales call. No license key. No permission required.
Don't want to run the servers? We'll handle it.
This is the optional paid layer of our open-core model. Keep the same complete platform and let our team run the infrastructure: hosting, security, monitoring, backups and support. You focus on learning; we keep it online.
Self-hosting stays free. You only pay if you want us to run it.

Common questions about our free LMS
What is MyPass LMS Community Edition?+
MyPass LMS Community Edition is a free LMS that you download and run on your own server. It is the open core of the MyPass LMS platform, with unlimited registered users, no per-seat licensing and no license key. Kprise offers optional managed hosting if you prefer not to run servers yourself.
Is MyPass LMS really a free LMS?+
Yes. Community Edition is free to download and self-host, with no per-seat fees and no license key. Your only costs are your own server and the time to run it. You pay Kprise only if you choose managed hosting, which starts at $99 per month.
What does open-core mean for an LMS?+
Open-core means the core learning management system is free to download and run yourself, while the company behind it sells an optional paid layer on top. With MyPass LMS, the free core is Community Edition and the paid layer is managed hosting, security, monitoring, backups and support from Kprise.
How is an open-core LMS different from an open source LMS?+
With a typical open source LMS, you arrange hosting, updates and support yourself or through third parties. An open-core LMS gives you a free core and an optional managed service from the same team that builds the product, so you can move from self-hosted to fully managed without changing platforms.
How many users can I add to the free LMS?+
Unlimited. MyPass LMS has no per-seat licensing on any edition, including the free Community Edition. You can register your whole audience, including members, staff, volunteers and customers, without the platform cost rising as you grow.
What is included in the free Community Edition?+
Community Edition includes unlimited users and courses, certificates and renewals, SCORM and content import, reporting and analytics, built-in AI tools and full ownership of your data. It is the real MyPass LMS platform, not a time-limited trial.
How do I install the self-hosted LMS?+
Download the Community Edition bundle as a single ZIP file, unzip it and run start.cmd. The setup wizard then opens in your browser. The Windows bundle is available now, and macOS and Linux bundles are on the way.
Can I switch from self-hosting to managed hosting later?+
Yes. Community Edition and managed MyPass LMS are the same platform, so you can start by self-hosting for free and ask Kprise to take over hosting, security, backups and support later. Managed hosting starts at $99 per month.
Who is MyPass LMS Community Edition best for?+
MyPass LMS suits associations, nonprofits, schools, certification bodies and training teams that want to train a large or growing audience without paying per learner. More than 40 organizations already run MyPass LMS.
