HR training vs Purchasely: at a glance
What is HR training?
Illumeo's HR course landing page captured section by section - no product changes in it.
This tracks Illumeo's HR training landing page rather than a changelog. The five captures are the page's own sections: a hero line, an FAQ block, two calls to action, and a catalog summary claiming 500+ programs with SHRM, HRCI and Payroll.Org accreditation. All five have null publish dates.
What is Purchasely?
Purchasely puts its Management API in the terminal and in AI coding agents
Purchasely is an SDK and console for in-app subscriptions and paywalls. Version 6.2 in October let apps send their own business events to trigger campaigns and linked every purchase to the paywall, placement and test that drove it. On November 5 it released a CLI in beta that exposes every Management API operation as a command, shows app metrics in the terminal, and installs a Purchasely plugin into AI coding agents, with dry runs, plan-then-apply and a read-only mode for safe writes.

Illumeo's HR course landing page captured section by section - no product changes in it.
◆ Current state
This tracks Illumeo's HR training landing page rather than a changelog. The five captures are the page's own sections: a hero line, an FAQ block, two calls to action, and a catalog summary claiming 500+ programs with SHRM, HRCI and Payroll.Org accreditation. All five have null publish dates.
◆ Where it's heading
The signal available here is catalog scope and accreditation claims, both of which move slowly and only when the marketing page is rewritten. Nothing in the captures describes software behavior, so there is no product arc to follow. Repeat crawls will surface the same headings.
◆ Prediction
No product prediction is supported by this data. What is unclear is whether Illumeo publishes release notes anywhere; none of the captured sections points to one.

Purchasely puts its Management API in the terminal and in AI coding agents
◆ Current state
Purchasely is an SDK and console for in-app subscriptions and paywalls. Version 6.2 in October let apps send their own business events to trigger campaigns and linked every purchase to the paywall, placement and test that drove it. On November 5 it released a CLI in beta that exposes every Management API operation as a command, shows app metrics in the terminal, and installs a Purchasely plugin into AI coding agents, with dry runs, plan-then-apply and a read-only mode for safe writes.
◆ Where it's heading
The SDK releases have steadily moved control of paywalls and campaigns out of app code and into the Console. The CLI moves it again, into scripts, CI and coding agents, with guardrails designed for automated writes.
◆ Prediction
The CLI needs Management API access enabled by Purchasely staff, so the next likely step is broader self-serve access, or more agent-facing tooling built on the same API.
