We’re excited to officially launch AI Tutor into Open Beta, bringing real-time, conversational support right into your Skilljar courses.

When learners hit a roadblock, they often disengage with the content or turn to your team with repeat questions. AI Tutor solves both sides of that problem, delivering in-the-moment support to learners, and reducing the burden on Education teams.

This release also marks the beginning of something bigger. AI Tutor is a big step toward our vision of agentic learning, a model where education is personalized, proactive, and lives everywhere. We’re building a future where learning is no longer a static, one-way experience but dynamically supported every step of the way.

 

What AI Tutor Can Do Today

AI Tutor sits directly within each Skilljar course, giving learners instant access to:

  • Contextual answers based on lesson content, transcripts, and course materials
  • Lesson recommendations to guide learners to the most relevant next steps
  • Real-time coaching that adapts to individual learner needs

 

Skilljar admins can also customize AI Tutor to match your Academy’s look and feel. For setup details, visit the Help Center

 

 

The AI Tutor button is currently only available for HTML, video (with transcripts), and audio lessons. It is not supported for SCORM or web package lessons.

 

AI Tutor enters Open Beta today, with general availability planned for later this Spring. Beta access to AI Tutor is available to all Skilljar customers at no additional cost. If you haven’t signed up yet, you can join the beta here. If you’ve already signed up, AI Tutor will be enabled within three business days. All Release Week generally available features are included in existing plan.

 


 

That’s officially a wrap on Skilljar Release Week. Five days of new features and behind-the-scenes upgrades, all designed to make it easier to manage your Academy and support your learners.

Thanks for following along. We’d also love your thoughts on Release Week itself. Tell us in this quick survey to help shape future launches.
