What's New in Articulate 360: Q3 2026

In case you missed it, we just released our biggest update in 10 years—which is why we’re especially excited about this quarter's new features.

Of course, these features couldn’t come to life without your feedback helping shape our future. 

This quarter, we’ve got updates that transform your team’s knowledge into training that actually improves work. From major changes, like a brand-new dashboard and AI Avatars, down to the little details, like an updated course library, we’ve got you covered every step of the way. 

Read on to learn how our latest updates make it easier than ever to create, collaborate on, distribute, and scale training. 

Create

This quarter, we’ve brought you tons of new features to help you build interactive training quickly and easily. 

AI Avatars

Save time, money, and effort by generating a realistic presenter without filming anything. Now, it’s easier than ever to keep your videos current by editing text or media without re-recording.

Customized videos help learners stay engaged and actually retain information after the training ends—and you can make all that happen without leaving the Articulate platform.

Hyperlink Enhancements

Need to reference additional information in another part of your course? 

Build more dynamic, flexible training that helps learners easily navigate to related content.

Turn any text or image into a smart navigation link using the standard formatting toolbar to point learners directly to related lessons or blocks, all without disrupting their flow or losing important context.

New Dashboard

Kick off creation faster with the new streamlined Articulate 360 dashboard. 

This refreshed, AI-first entry point helps you get started even faster with a simple prompt or source file. You can even select brand settings upfront rather than adjusting fonts and color palettes after your content is created.

Survey Block 

Having trouble getting your learners’ honest opinions about your training? 

Now, you’re able to embed anonymous, structured feedback questions directly inside any training! 

Surveys can be added to any training published via QuickShare, and you can get insights quickly with AI-summarized results.

Brands

Want to make sure your organization’s training is on-brand from the start? 

Now, you can maintain brand consistency across your organization by applying logos, brand colors, and font families to your content. You can even set a brand as a default so that it's applied whenever new content is created. Keeping the look and feel of your training cohesive has never been easier.

Image Editing 

Tired of starting over and over again because the AI image you’re generating still isn’t quite what you asked for? 

No more editing your AI image in Photoshop or Canva to make those small (but important) changes! Now, you can use prompts for targeted changes, like specific details, colors, and background, without endlessly regenerating until you get what you need.

Quick Reference 

Need to update team members on a new process or product, but don’t want them bogged down by another lengthy training session? 

Now, you can generate a Quick Reference course in minutes to get them up to speed. These three-lesson courses include interactive moments to make sure the learning sticks without taking up too much bandwidth.

LLM Integration 

The days of copy-pasting and losing important context are gone!

This new integration lets you integrate your favorite AI tools into your training workflow! Sync it with Articulate 360 to start working there, then seamlessly generate training without any back-and-forth.

Google Drive/OneDrive Integration

Tired of jumping back and forth between apps and documents? 

Now, you can use your existing documents to build training. With this integration, you can pull all of your team’s files directly from Google Drive or OneDrive and turn them into training with just a few clicks.

Exclusive Voices

Tired of manually trying out different voices by going through the library one by one, with no avatar-to-voice matching guidance to help you?

Now, you can choose from a curated set of avatar-matched voices to help ensure the right fit, every time. Plus, this exclusive library is entirely Articulate-owned, so you never have to worry about voices disappearing from live training again.

Interactive Video

Worried about learners disengaging before finishing a lengthy video?  

Now, you can instantly transform any video, like meeting recordings or demos, into structured training with AI-generated chapters, learning checkpoints, summaries, and more.

And here’s the best part: Zero videography skills are required! This feature automates the manual process of splicing, editing, and summarizing, so you can give your learners a polished video they’ll actually enjoy watching.

Scenario 

Don’t have the time to build interactive branching scenarios? Don’t worry, not many of us do—but you still want your learners prepared for real-life situations. 

Scenario-based learning is an incredibly effective way for learners to build real-world skills, but it’s certainly not quick or easy to create from scratch. Now, you can use AI to create training sequences with realistic dialogue, choices, and feedback, all from a simple prompt.

Training Deck

Tired of maintaining courses, slide decks, and other training materials in multiple places? 

If you frequently design blended training paths—such as online training paired with live, facilitator-led training—this feature makes it easier to create and maintain both formats together in the same tool.

Simply convert your existing content into polished presentation decks with built-in responsive slide templates, all without leaving Articulate 360.

Kit Generation 

Not sure where to start when building training? Training kits have got you covered!

You can get started quickly by uploading any of your existing docs, decks, or videos to Frontline. From there, you’ll get a generated kit with recommended content types, including Training Deck, Quick Reference, Guide, and Scenario. The artifacts that make up your comprehensive training kit are chosen specifically with industry best practices and your learning goals in mind, helping to ensure your finalized training materials are professional, engaging, and effective.

Update Content with AI

Say goodbye to manual, block-by-block edits. 

Now, you can update training at scale with AI-powered bulk editing and replacement! 

Simply describe what you’d like to change once, and this new feature applies it across your content in seconds—no more manual edits required. 

Plus, you can review and revert at any time with built-in confirmation, review, and undo options, letting you apply changes with confidence.

Guide

Courses aren’t always the best way to document guided workflows. 

Easily build, update, and share step-by-step training content using the new Guide format. Choose from five different format options, including Step, Text, Video, Note, and Survey. This feature is ideal for creators looking to record workflows, build SOPs, or create onboarding references!

Updated Course Library

Finding the right training just got a whole lot easier.

Now, you can quickly access and organize your team’s content, even as your library grows. Enjoy streamlined training management with new filtering options, including content type, update recency, and the ability to filter by multiple content owners at once (not just "owned by anyone" or "owned by me").

Distribute

Connected Packages 

Tired of republishing and re-uploading your course to your LMS after every update?

The old system made it complicated to keep training content accurate, as even small edits often require a full republish and re-upload. This only slows your team down, adds manual work, and increases the likelihood that your learners engage with outdated content.

Now, when you want to update a course, you can push those updates to the live training in your LMS with just a few clicks—all without repeating the full “publish and upload” process.

Scale 

Discover how these new features help you expand training across languages, systems, and workflows.

Analytics

Want to gain insights that can actually help improve your training? 

Now, creators using QuickShare links to distribute training have a built-in dashboard with engagement metrics, including:

• Views
• Sessions
• Completions
• Time spent
• Sentiment
• AI Tutor engagement themes

You can drill even further into the data to view analytics for an individual artifact, kit, or learner.

Learn more about Analytics here.

Multi-format translation

Need to translate content beyond courses? 

This AI-powered workflow allows text (and TTS where available) in new formats, such as guides and presentations, to be translated. This helps ensure your global workforce can learn in the language that they think and work in, no matter where they’re located.
