CYPHER AI 360 with Copilot (Copilot) – the world’s first AI-powered tool – accelerates the development and delivery of competency-based, gamified courses, complete with assessments and reporting, in mere minutes. By enabling fast and efficient course creation, the tool aims to alleviate the administrative burden on individuals/businesses tasked with training responsibilities, facilitating quicker time-to-market and revenue generation. It also fosters scalable personalized learning experiences while achieving measurable outcomes, including learning engagement, mastery, and skill development.
In the industry, creating one course typically takes trainers 430 hours. With Copilot, users can accomplish 80% of the mundane work in minutes, greatly reducing manual effort and streamlining the course creation process. The trainer validates, edits, and focuses on the remaining 20% – for lasting impact. Imagine turning a dull compliance course into one taught in the style of Homer Simpson or Oprah. Different, right?
