What is Big Think+

Big Think+ is a learning experience platform that provides a curated library of short-form expert-led videos and supporting learning assets for workforce development. It is used by L&D teams to deliver leadership, professional skills, and business-focused learning programs to employees. The platform emphasizes editorially curated content collections and learning paths rather than user-generated course authoring. It typically complements, rather than replaces, an organization’s existing LMS by providing content and learner experience features.

pros

Curated expert content library

Big Think+ centers on a managed catalog of expert-led video lessons and related learning materials. This reduces the need for internal content production for common leadership and professional development topics. The content model fits organizations that want consistent, centrally curated learning experiences across teams.

Short-form, program-ready modules

The platform’s lessons are designed for brief consumption and can be assembled into structured learning paths. This supports cohort programs, manager enablement, and ongoing professional development where time is limited. The format can be easier to deploy at scale than long, course-like modules.

LXP-style learner experience

Big Think+ is oriented around discovery and consumption of learning content rather than heavy administrative workflows. It supports packaging content into collections and pathways for different audiences. This aligns with LXP use cases where engagement and content relevance are prioritized over complex compliance training management.

cons

Limited custom authoring depth

Big Think+ is primarily a content and experience platform, not a full course-authoring suite. Organizations that need extensive creation of interactive eLearning, assessments, or SCORM-heavy custom courses may require additional tools. This can add complexity when teams want to build highly tailored training beyond the provided library.

Not a full talent suite

While it supports learning and development programs, it is not positioned as an end-to-end talent management system. Capabilities such as performance management, compensation, succession planning, and recruiting typically sit outside the product scope. Buyers looking for a single system for learning plus broader HR talent workflows may need integrations.

Content fit varies by role

The catalog focuses on broadly applicable business and leadership topics, which may not cover role-specific operational training in depth. Frontline enablement, product training, or highly regulated compliance content may require separate content sources. As a result, some organizations use it as one component of a broader learning ecosystem.
