Since October 15, 2026, the Laioutr Academy has been live at academy.laioutr.com. It is the user manual for Laioutr and the products of the group: for every task a short video, numbered steps and a check of the result. On top of that come five learning paths and three free certificates. All content is available in English and German.
## What is the Laioutr Academy?
The Academy answers one simple question: how is a specific task done in Laioutr? Creating a project, connecting Shopify, publishing a page, pointing a domain or connecting an agent through the MCP. It is built for everyone who works with the platform: e-commerce leads, content managers and editorial teams, UX designers, developers and partners.
The starting point is the path from the first login to a deployed storefront on a custom domain. Building on that, the Academy documents the full feature set, from Studio, the [Composable Visual Page Builder](https://www.laioutr.com/en/composable-visual-page-builder), through Cockpit to the apps.
## Eleven areas: the manual at a glance
The manual is organized into eleven areas:
- **Getting started**: from the account to the first project
- **Cockpit**: organization, roles, markets, licenses and operations
- **Studio**: building and publishing pages from sections and blocks
- **Apps**: connecting and checking shop, CMS, search and tracking
- **Essentials apps**: legal building blocks, email, SEO and GEO
- **Hosting and operations**: deployments, rollback, domains and CDN
- **Storefront features**: the storefront sections from hero to cart
- **AI and agents**: Larry Co-Pilot, AI functions on fields and sections, agents through the MCP
- **Group products**: Distributr, Translatr, Consentr and more
- **Partners**: partner portal, deal registration and certification
- **For developers**: local development, custom apps and sections, Orchestr
In Laioutr, integrations such as Shopify, Shopware or Hygraph are apps. The Academy therefore explains them from the user's point of view: which flow, which configuration, which check at the end. The [Laioutr App Store](https://www.laioutr.com/en/apps) shows which integrations are available.
## How every guide is structured
Each guide solves exactly one task and follows the same pattern:
1. A short answer up front
2. A video, usually two to four minutes long, with chapters, subtitles and a transcript
3. Numbered steps to follow along
4. A check that the result is correct
Video and text belong together: every video is tied to exactly one article with the same steps. Readers miss nothing, and viewers find the steps again in the article. "Ask Laioutr" searches all articles and lessons, with questions such as "How do I publish a page?" or "How do I connect an agent via MCP?".
## Five learning paths, organized by role
Learning paths bundle articles into courses of short video lessons. The lessons link to the articles with the individual steps instead of repeating them.
- **From sign-up to go-live** (177 minutes): for e-commerce leads and content managers, up to a deployed storefront on a custom domain
- **Foundations** (94 minutes): the basics for every role, with a test and a badge at the end
- **Agentic Frontend Manager** (111 minutes): pages, campaigns, translation and SEO in daily work. Agents prepare, a person approves
- **Agentic UX Designer** (96 minutes): layout system, design tokens, Figma kit and accessibility as the framework for pages and agents
- **Agentic Developer** (146 minutes): apps, Orchestr, custom sections, deployment and connecting agents through the Laioutr MCP
The first path shows what the Academy is designed for: a team should get from sign-up to a live storefront without help from Laioutr. What needs to be settled organizationally after launch is covered in our post on [composable frontend ownership after go-live](https://www.laioutr.com/en/blog/composable-frontend-ownership-raci-after-go-live-2026).
## Certification: three certificates with a practical task
The certification program launches together with the Academy. It covers three certificates: Certified Agentic Frontend Manager, Certified Agentic UX Designer and Certified Agentic Developer. The exam, the practical task and the certificate are free.
The process:
1. Create an Academy account
2. Complete the Foundations path with its test and badge, then the path for the chosen role
3. Knowledge test: 40 scenario-based questions in 60 minutes, passing score 75 percent
4. Complete a practical task in a Laioutr project within 30 days. The Laioutr team reviews it against a fixed checklist and gives written feedback
5. Digital badge, valid for 24 months
In the practical task, AI agents work on an existing page through the Laioutr MCP, for example on a second language version. A person reviews the result and publishes it. This division of work is exactly what daily work on an [Agentic Frontend Management Platform](https://www.laioutr.com/en/agentic-frontend-management-platform) looks like. How agents work with storefronts through MCP servers is explained in our post on [the agent-readable storefront](https://www.laioutr.com/en/blog/agent-readable-storefront-mcp-across-vendors-2026).
For partners, certificates count toward the partner tier. Among other requirements, Premier needs at least three and Strategic at least six certified people. Certificates belong to the individual and move with them when they change employers.
## Academy and docs: what lives where
The Academy explains tasks from the user's perspective. Technical references on development processes stay in the Laioutr Docs. The "For developers" area and the Agentic Developer path bridge the gap to where things get technically deep.
## FAQ
**What does the Laioutr Academy cost?**
The Foundations path is open to every role. The three certificates, including exam and practical task, are free.
**Which languages is the Academy available in?**
English and German, including subtitles and transcripts for the videos.
**Is a partner account required for certification?**
No. Linking a partner account is only needed if the certificate should count toward a partner tier.
**How long is a certificate valid?**
24 months from the passing date. Renewal works through a short update test on new features, without a new practical task.
## Getting started
The fastest way in is the [Foundations learning path](https://academy.laioutr.com/en/lernpfade/foundations). For a concrete project, the [From sign-up to go-live learning path](https://academy.laioutr.com/en/lernpfade/from-sign-up-to-go-live) is the right fit. All program details are on the [certification page](https://academy.laioutr.com/en/zertifizierung), and the complete manual is in the [Laioutr Academy](https://academy.laioutr.com/en).
