Generate a course
How to build a whole course with the AI agent: what you give it, what it asks, and how to keep shaping it afterwards.
Open Create with agent, give it your material or describe what you want, and answer the questions it asks. It builds a structured course of screens grouped into sections, and you keep talking to it to change anything.
The in-builder agent is available on all current plans, but not on the legacy Flow and Hub plans.
Build a course with the agent
- From your library, select New course, then Create with agent.
- Upload what you have (a document, a presentation, or a SCORM package), or just describe the course you want. You can upload more than one file.
- Answer the questions the agent asks. It asks only what it needs, skips anything it can work out from your material, and checks your answers make sense before it starts building. Expect questions about your audience and their familiarity with the topic, what learners should be able to do afterwards, the tone, and roughly how long the course should be.
- If you gave it a single document or SCORM package, it also asks how closely to follow your source.
- It builds the course while you watch, then you review it.
How closely should it follow your source?
- Verbatim: keeps your wording exactly as written. Use it for policies, compliance content, and anything already approved.
- Structured: reorganises your material into a clear learning flow, keeping the content itself.
- Adaptive: rewrites and expands your material into a fuller course.
The agent doesn't ask this when you start from a prompt alone, or when you upload several documents at once.
Keep shaping it
The agent stays with you in the builder. Ask it for whatever you need next: rework a screen, change the tone, add a knowledge check or a quiz, split a section, reorder things, or generate images and narration. You can also edit any screen by hand at the same time, since everything it produces is ordinary editable content.
The Suggestions menu in the Chat tab gives you starting points, like generating a screen, a knowledge check, flashcards or a quiz. Picking one writes the prompt into the box so you can adjust it before you send it.
Generate using a prompt (Classic)
The Classic builder has its own one-shot generation flow. From the New course menu, open the Classic group and select Generate using a prompt, describe your topic, set the audience, learning outcome, language, tone and a screen-count range, then review the outline before it builds. On the outline you can add or remove screens, rename and reorder them, or select Regenerate for a different version.
Classic tones are Informal & Conversational, Academic & Research-Based, and Motivational & Persuasive.
Frequently asked questions
Can I edit a generated course?
Yes. Everything is editable after generation, and you can either change it yourself or ask the agent to do it.
How long should a generated course be?
Aim for around 20 screens or fewer. For longer topics, split the content into several smaller courses grouped into a collection.
Can I build from a file rather than a description?
Yes. Upload a document, a presentation or a SCORM package, on its own or alongside a brief.
What if the result isn't what I wanted?
Tell the agent. Describe what's wrong and it reworks that part, so you don't have to start again.
