Most programs go live a few weeks after signature with no setup fee; pricing is quote-based per user, and content runs in NINJIO's portal or exports as SCORM/xAPI. Vendor-published ratings include 4.9/5 on G2 and 4.8/5 on Gartner Peer Insights.
Frequently asked questions
How long does implementation take before employees start training?
NINJIO states that most programs are up and running a few weeks after contract signature, using a white-glove implementation approach. New AWARE episodes ship monthly, and enrolled users are reached by email with a 'Watch Now' link, so they do not have to log in to the platform to view content.
Is there an implementation or setup fee?
No. NINJIO states that setup and implementation costs are included in the per-user price. Optional content customization, such as a custom intro, bumper or company branding added to existing episodes and quizzes, is available for an incremental cost.
What does NINJIO cost?
Pricing is not published. NINJIO says cost depends on the number of users to train and the features selected, and directs buyers to a security advisor for a quote. Multi-year discounts, education and non-profit discounts are available, and three free sample episodes can be requested for evaluation.
What does NINJIO integrate with?
NINJIO's platform is compatible with Entra and Okta directory services, with additional API functionality. Content is deployable on any LMS compatible with SCORM 1.2, SCORM 2/3, xAPI, HTML5 and mp4, and in many cases can be uploaded to other security awareness platforms.
Does NINJIO use AI, and is customer data used to train models?
Yes, AI features sit under the NINJIO Sensei AI offering, including AI-generated phishing simulation templates, AI analysis of user-reported suspicious emails, and deepfake vishing simulations. NINJIO's privacy policy states that customer data is not used for general model training by external providers, and that pre-trained third-party LLMs are used rather than models trained from scratch.
What support is available and during which hours?
Support is available by opening a ticket or calling 805-864-1999 between 6 AM and 6 PM Pacific. Most customers have their programs managed by NINJIO's managed services team, which handles onboarding and offboarding users, setting up campaigns, reporting findings and recommending improvements.
