AI Draft Assist
Use AI to automatically generate course content, pages, and quizzes from your course brief
What is AI Draft Assist?
AI Draft Assist is an intelligent feature that automatically generates a complete course structure with content, interactive widgets, and quiz questions based on a simple course brief. Instead of starting from a blank page, you provide basic information about your course, and AI creates a professional, ready-to-edit draft in minutes.
The AI understands your course topic, target audience, and difficulty level to generate:
- Course structure - Logical page flow and organisation
- Page content - Text blocks with relevant information
- Interactive widgets - Cards, timelines, info boxes, and more
- Quiz questions - Multiple choice questions with feedback
- Learning objectives - Clear goals for the course

Limitations and Considerations
Content Accuracy
While AI generates relevant content, you should always verify accuracy, especially for compliance courses or technical topics. Review all information and update as needed.
Organisation-Specific Information
AI generates general content. You'll need to add your organisation's specific policies, procedures, contact information, and examples.
Media Assets
AI generates text and structure but doesn't include images or videos. You'll need to add your own media assets to enhance the course.
Complex Interactions
For highly interactive or custom learning experiences, you may need to manually build additional elements beyond what AI generates.
Common Questions
Can I use AI Draft Assist for existing projects?
AI Draft Assist is only available when creating a new project through the Creation Wizard. For existing projects, you'll need to manually add and edit content.
How accurate is the AI-generated content?
The AI generates relevant content based on your brief, but you should always review and verify accuracy, especially for compliance or technical courses. Treat it as a starting point that requires your expertise to refine.
Can I regenerate the draft if I don't like it?
Currently, AI Draft Assist runs once during project creation. If you're not satisfied with the draft, you can manually edit it or create a new project with a revised brief.
Does AI Draft Assist work for all course types?
AI Draft Assist works well for most course types, including compliance training, skills development, and knowledge-based courses. For highly specialised or technical content, you may need to do more manual editing.
How long does generation take?
Generation typically takes 30-60 seconds depending on the number of pages and quiz questions you've requested. Larger courses with more content may take slightly longer.
