We've been helping people learn at work since 2012
We're Neovation, the team behind SmarterU LMS and OttoLearn. For all those years we've watched smart people waste hours hunting for answers their company already had. JoySuite is our fix: everything more than 500 clients have taught us, built into one platform.
One team, with one stubborn belief: work and learning belong together.
Neovation started in Winnipeg, Canada, and grew into a custom eLearning studio with more than 55 experts. Along the way we built an LMS trusted by compliance-heavy industries, a microlearning platform that makes training stick, and thousands of hours of custom courses. JoySuite is the next act: connecting all of that knowledge to the people who need it, the moment they need it.
Learning management · since 2009
SmarterU LMS
SmarterU is where it all started: structured training, tracking, and audit-ready certainty for industries where "probably trained" isn't good enough.
Microlearning · since 2018
OttoLearn
OttoLearn reinforces knowledge with adaptive microlearning a few minutes a day, so it's still there when it matters.

Knowledge & learning · today
JoySuite
JoySuite puts everything we've learned into one platform: trusted answers, real training, and hard-won expertise your team won't lose.
Joy works alongside SmarterU or whichever LMS you use today, so there's nothing to migrate to get started.

A straight line from LMS to microlearning to knowledge platform, each product built on what the last one taught us.
What we believe
One knowledge base
We've watched companies maintain the same answer in five places and get it wrong in three. Update a document once, and the answers, courses, and reports built on it stay current.
Works alongside what you already have
Migrations are disruptive, so Joy doesn't ask for one. It works with the LMS and systems you already trust, including our own SmarterU.
Grounded and governed
AI you bring to work has to earn its keep. Answers can be kept to the sources you approve, cited when you want them, because "trust me" isn't a compliance strategy.
Built for the people doing the work
Every plan includes unlimited users with no charge per seat, because the person on the shop floor deserves the same answers as the person in the corner office.
The humans behind Joy
Joy is designed, built, and supported by the same Neovation team behind SmarterU and OttoLearn.
Dan founded Neovation and has spent his career chasing one question: why is it so hard for people to find what their own company already knows? Decades of learning technology later, JoySuite is his best answer yet.
Connect on LinkedIn →Behind Joy is the same team that builds and supports SmarterU and OttoLearn for the more than 500 clients that trust us: real people who have managed workplace learning for real organizations, at scale.
Based in Winnipeg and working across the US and Canada: developers, designers, and learning nerds who still answer their own support tickets.
