Available in Articulate 360, this update combines the speed of artificial intelligence with the flexibility of Rise 360 authoring tools — giving you a massive head start on course creation.

How It Works
With AI Course Drafts, you can collaborate with Articulate built-in AI Assistant to create a complete course outline, lessons, and interactive blocks.

You stay in the driver’s seat — guiding the direction while AI handles the heavy lifting.
Why It Matters
- Save hours of development time by generating first drafts instantly.
- Overcome creative blocks with structured outlines and content suggestions.

The AI Course Drafts feature helps you move faster from concept to delivery, freeing you to do what really matters — making learning engaging and effective.
Here are the top 5 ways that productive, real-world, eLearning Professionals are using Articulate AI Course Drafts:
1. Rapid Conversion of Existing/Legacy Content
Convert disorganized or outdated content (like lengthy PDFs, Word documents, or existing PowerPoint decks) into structured, interactive Rise 360 course drafts instantly. The ability to upload source documents and generate a course draft bypasses weeks of manual outlining and data entry.
2. Eliminating the “Blank Page” Problem
Quickly generate a functional first draft or comprehensive course outline from a simple text prompt. This delivers a significant reduction in time spent starting a new project and allowing instructional designers to skip the most tedious initial structuring phase.
3. Automatic Knowledge Check and Assessment Generation
Leverage AI’s ability to automatically embed knowledge checks, quizzes, and interactive elements directly into the course draft. Instructional designers love how this automation saves time by ensuring that assessments are instantly aligned with the content generated from the source material.
4. Focusing on Refinement Over Creation
With the basic course draft handled by the Articulate AI Assistant, there is a shift in the Instructional Designer’s role. Instead of the majority of time going into content creation, more time can be allocated to high-value activities: adding complex scenarios, enhancing user engagement, ensuring cultural nuance, and refining the instructional design.
5. Instant Structuring of Complex Topics
With the ability to take vast, complex, or highly technical information and immediately break it down into a logical, sequential, and well-structured Rise course outline, AI generated course drafts is super-powerful for those building compliance training, technical training, and HR onboarding content, where structure and clarity are paramount.
