Meet Batu LMS – Simple by Design, Built for Developers & Agencies 2026

Meet Batu LMS – A WordPress LMS plugin built with simplicity in mind for developers and agencies!

Today, I am excited, on behalf of our small team, to introduce the Batu LMS plugin. Batu LMS is in the MVP stage and we will improve the plugin over time. If you face any issues, we are always here to help you solve them. It can be a bug, a feature idea, or a design improvement. Our goal is to support you in any possible way.

In this blog, we will start with why we built the Batu LMS WordPress plugin, how the name Batu LMS came about, the MVP module and features, what the pricing plan is, and a final call for community support. Let’s get in.

• Batu LMS starting price is $49/year for a limited time only. Let’s become an early supporter of this new product.

Why did We Build this Plugin?

We want to make the developer’s job easier. Most LMS plugins come with a wide range of features that a simple eLearning website doesn’t need. Leading LMS already become feature creep.

This leads us to think about a solution that’s easy for the end users. And also easy for the developer. So here is the question we kept asking: how many of those features does a site with ten courses actually use?

And no hesitation in saying that we made this plugin with the help of AI. But wait! Our Brain Intelligence, which we often call BI, is the key for managing AI. So, the main credit goes to our BI rather than the AI code.

We started Batu LMS a few months back. And we are still trying to improve the Batu LMS to make it even better. This is the same team behind Minifly and the Cookiemate plugin.

What does Batu mean on the Batu LMS?

Well, our founder was in Malaysia, and he has a soft corner for this country. So, when he was researching the name, he checked a few names related to Malaysian things. And Batu suddenly came to mind. It felt simple, memorable, and meaningful.

BATU is inspired by Batu Caves, a place known for its distinctive identity, strong presence, and its connection to learning, culture, and community. And the best part: BATU also represents LMS and online education very clearly.

• B — Business. Supporting organizations in building a skilled and capable workforce.
• A — Academy. Creating a structured environment where people can learn, grow, and develop new knowledge.
• T — Training. Providing practical training and learning experiences for employees, professionals, and learners.
• U — Upskilling. Helping people continuously improve their skills and stay ready for new opportunities and challenges.

BATU is more than an LMS name. It represents a strong foundation for learning, training, and continuous growth.

Together, BATU — Business, Academy, Training & Upskilling represents a learning platform built to connect organizations, educators, and learners in one place.

Meet Batu LMS v1.0.0 Modules and Features

Batu LMS MVP v1.0.0 has the features to run a complete course-selling opportunity. It has many upcoming features. But the current system will allow you to create a course, sell it online and earn money. Let’s see the introductory features in this section.

Platform Owner

The Owner runs the whole platform from one WordPress install. It can be a teacher or a creator who has some idea. Or it can be an entrepreneur who wants to power up other creators.

• Company Accounts – company tree-based accounts, so each client or department is its own space with its own users, courses, and reports. Nothing leaks between them. This is one of our features that is unique in the industry.
• Users & Permissions – one directory for every account, with permissions set per user instead of locking people into fixed roles.
• Platform Dashboard – live counts for students, courses, enrollments, and revenue, with a simple trend chart.
• Reports & Export – company, user, course, and quiz reports, each one downloadable as a CSV file.
• Switched Account – log in as any account to see exactly what they see and fix things in place.
• Full Data Backup – export the whole platform to a single file, import it back, or reset it when you need a clean start.

Platform Staff

Platform staff features are unique options in Batu LMS. Think about it, a learning site has 50+ course. In that case, it’s really hard for anyone to manage. With Batu LMS, they can assign staff who will work for the owner. Staff helps the owner run the platform without full owner access.

• Shared platform access – manage companies, users, and courses next to the Owner.
• Scoped access – each staff member gets only the screens they need.
• Same dashboard and reports – the platform view, minus the owner-only data controls.

Course Publish

Course is the key module for any LMS. And we keep it in our Batu LMS MVP. For the people who build and publish courses. With Batu LMS, authors can publish courses.

• Course Builder – build a course on one page with drag-and-drop chapters, lessons, and quizzes.
• Lesson Types – video (upload or YouTube/Vimeo), audio, documents, downloadable files, and rich text.
• Question Bank – reusable quiz and exam templates with multiple choice, true/false, and short answer.
• Certificate Builder – design a certificate on a drag-and-drop canvas and auto-issue it when a learner passes.
• Author Dashboard – a front-end workspace to manage your own courses and students, no wp-admin login needed.
• Add Students & Employees – company and employee managers add their own learners under their company tree.

Course Learners

For students taking the courses.

• Buy & Enroll – a clean catalog, cart, and checkout with bKash, Stripe, or manual payment.
• Course Player – a full-screen learning page with a curriculum sidebar, private notes, and a progress bar.
• Learning Paths – follow an ordered set of courses with clear progress at each step.
• Assessments – take quizzes and exams inline, submit assignments, and review results and history.
• Certificates – download a PDF certificate and confirm it with a public verification link.
• Student Dashboard – one front-end page for enrolled courses, quiz results, and certificates.

Can You Explain About Pricing?

Well, Batu LMS pricing is unique and easier than in the whole industry. Only a few public pricing plans and one private plan. Public pricing has both a lifetime deal and yearly pricing. We did not put any cap on the features. It’s just your preference whether you like to spend on small subscriptions every year or pay once for lifetime.

The public pricing is for people who have one or more clients. Buy and use it like other popular plugins. Nothing less, nothing more. All features we have released or will be released by the financial year.

Our focus is not on massive customers. We aim to build a smart customer count that allows us to provide the best support experience, deliver timely updates, and respond to every query efficiently.

For bulk purchases, we usually provide a discount. If it’s only a bulk license, we give a big discount. And if the agency wants Batu LMS white label, then we offer a regular discount.

As you can see, the Anual price starts at $139 for a single site, $299 for 10 sites and $999 for 10 sites lifetime access. As an early bird offer, Batu LMS can be purchased for $39 only. We are giving up to 90% OFF during our campaign. Every pricing plan comes with a safe 14-day money-back guarantee.

Speciality and USPs

For Bangladeshi users, we keep bKash payments. So if you have any skills and want to monetize, Batu LMS is an ideal LMS solution for you. bKash is a very popular payment option in Bangladesh. So payment management should no longer be an issue.

Modern Design

Batu LMS comes with a unique design approach for the end users. It’s not only a few-click setup process, but also the design brings SaaS style dedicated dashboard for each user. And we are working to improve it.

Company Account

If you want to sell courses for corporations and agencies, Batu LMS is the correct solution. Because we make a dedicated company module in this plugin.

Let’s Support Batu LMS

One of the amazing things in the WordPress community is that they are always supportive of new products. Even though the product may have some bugs or some features missing, people still purchase, share feedback, and shape the product over time with the authors.

I believe you will be one of those guys who support Batu LMS at the start. Let’s make a simple purchase, share feedback and make Batu LMS better than ever before.

We keep Batu LMS focused on the developers and agencies who build websites for others. We want to give them an experience that lets them build and forget. So, we also keep our eyes on end users’ experience. Moreover, a few of our features are unique in the industry, like company tree-based accounts.

If that sounds like the LMS you have been waiting for, take a look at the Batu LMS page, check the pricing, and talk to us about anything you need. See you on the inside.
