What does IT Trainerbot cost?

IT Trainerbot Plus adds saved conversations, memories, Deep Think, and image and file upload on top of everything in IT Trainerbot. It is $19 a month billed annually, or $29 a month month to month.

In the mobile apps it is listed as IT Trainerbot Pro; on the web and your invoice it is CBT Nuggets Individual.
What is IT Trainerbot for Teams?
IT Trainerbot for Teams is the IT Trainerbot name for CBT Nuggets Teams, and it is included with every Teams seat. Every engineer gets everything in Individual.

How does IT Trainerbot help me as an IT Director?
IT Trainerbot reduces escalations by giving your engineers instant answers on the CBT Nuggets platform or on mobile, where they already work. You see what your team is asking, which tells you what to train next. Every answer cites the CBT Nuggets video it came from, so each question becomes a training touchpoint. Engineers can start on the free tier before you buy. CBT Nuggets Teams adds the videos and labs those answers cite and the reporting you need to run training as a program.
Does IT Trainerbot include the training videos?
Not on the free tier or IT Trainerbot Plus. Every answer links to the video it came from, and watching that video needs access to the course through a CBT Nuggets Individual or Teams subscription, or by unlocking that one course.
