A side-by-side editorial comparison of Immersive Labs and Kolibri — release velocity, themes, recent moves, and the top alternatives to consider.
The cyber-readiness platform stops testing only people and starts testing the agents.
Immersive Labs sells provable cyber readiness — training, simulations and assessments that produce evidence a workforce can handle an incident. The last three months have been almost entirely an AI build-out: an AI Baseline Assessment measuring literacy across departments, an AI Program Builder that assembles training programs, AI Knowledge Pass gating tool access on verified competency, Project Mythos crisis simulations for executives, custom goals layered on top of the resilience pathways introduced in June, and an ATLAS heat map placing team activity against the 16 MITRE ATLAS tactics. Feed entries are short launch teasers, so direction is legible but scope is not.
Kolibri 0.20 alphas add structured courses with units and pre/post tests.
Kolibri's 0.19.x line has been in maintenance: translations, migrations and sync fixes. The 0.20.0 alphas introduce assigned courses with a welcome page, units, lessons, and pre-test/post-test flow, currently in QA. Releases are infrequent and move through alpha, beta and rc stages.

The platform's premise has been that readiness must be measured rather than assumed, and it is now applying that premise in two directions at once. For people, the measurement is being wired to consequences — competency unlocking AI tool access rather than merely appearing on a dashboard. For systems, the subject under test has changed: the agentic harness pressure-tests an AI agent's safety, financial controls and human judgement before it reaches production, which is assurance of software rather than of staff. The MITRE ATLAS mapping serves both, giving the AI-threat work the same coverage framing the platform already used for adversary tactics.
Expect the agentic harness to acquire the reporting layer everything else here has — coverage maps and board-ready evidence — since every capability in this window eventually arrives at proof rather than practice.
Kolibri's 0.19.x line has been in maintenance: translations, migrations and sync fixes. The 0.20.0 alphas introduce assigned courses with a welcome page, units, lessons, and pre-test/post-test flow, currently in QA. Releases are infrequent and move through alpha, beta and rc stages.
The offline learning platform is adding guided course structure on top of its resource library, giving learners a sequenced path with built-in assessment. Expect the 0.20 cycle to dominate the next several releases.
Further 0.20.0 alphas or a beta are likely next, refining the course flow under the posted QA guidance.
