AI Assistant: Producing Highly Realistic Audio
As a course author, you want to do more than just present information—you want to create multi-sensory e-learning experiences that resonate with learners. Using sound creatively can help you get there. AI Assistant’s text-to-speech and sound effects features let you create highly realistic AI-generated voices and sound effects for more immersive and accessible content. Originally, both of these features could only be accessed in Storyline 360. However, as of the July 2025 update, AI Assistant in Rise 360 can generate text-to-speech narration. Visit this user guide to get started creating AI-generated narrations in Rise 360. In Storyline 360, these features can be accessed from the Insert Audio dropdown in the AI Assistant menu within the ribbon. Find them under the Home or Insert tab when you’re in slide view or from the AI Assistant side panel as quick action buttons for added convenience. Bring Narration to Life with AI-generated Voices If you’ve ever used classic text-to-speech, you probably wished the voices sounded less, well, robotic. AI Assistant’s text-to-speech brings narration to life with contextually aware AI-generated voices that sound more natural—and human! Check out the difference in quality between a standard voice, neural voice, and AI-generated voice by playing the text-to-speech examples below. Standard Voice Your browser does not support the audio element. Neural Voice Your browser does not support the audio element. AI-generated Voice Your browser does not support the audio element. To get started, click the Insert Audio icon in the AI Assistant menu to open the Generate AI Audio dialog box. A library of AI-generated voices—which you can filter by Gender, Age, and Accent—displays under the Voices tab. The voices also have descriptions like “deep,” “confident,” “crisp,” “intense,” and “soothing” and categories that can help you determine their ideal use cases, from news broadcasts to meditation, or even ASMR. Find these qualities under the voice’s name, and use the play button to preview the voice. Currently, there are 52 pre-made voices to choose from, and you can mark your favorites by clicking the heart icon. This way, you can easily access your preferred voices without having to scroll through the list. Toggle the View option to Favorites to find all your favorite voices, or In project to see voices used in the current project. Once you’ve decided on a voice, click the button labeled Use to switch to the Text-to-Speech tab. Your chosen voice is already pre-selected. Next, enter your script in the text box provided or click the add from slide notes link to copy notes from your slide. The script can be a maximum of 5,000 characters. For accessibility, leave the Generate closed captions box checked—AI Assistant will generate closed captions automatically. You can instantly determine if your text-to-speech narration has closed captions by the CC label that appears next to each output. Find More Voices in the Voice Library In addition to the pre-made voices, you also have access to an extended voice library with thousands of ultrarealistic, AI-generated voices that can be filtered by age, gender, and use case. Discover the right voice for your content by clicking the Voice Library button on the right under the My Voices tab. Check out this article to learn how to use the voice library. Adjust the Voice Settings Unlike classic text-to-speech, the AI-generated voices in AI Assistant’s text-to-speech can be customized for a tailored voice performance. The Model setting lets you choose between the Multilingual v2 model—highly stable, exceptionally accurate, lifelike speech with support for 29 languages—and Flash v2.5 model—slightly less stable but can generate faster with support for 32 languages. Play the following samples to listen and compare the voices generated by each model. Multilingual v2 Your browser does not support the audio element. Flash v2.5 Your browser does not support the audio element. The setting for Stability controls the balance between the voice’s steadiness and randomness. The Similarity setting determines how closely the AI should adhere to the original voice when attempting to replicate it. The defaults are set to 0.50 for the stability slider and 0.75 for the similarity slider, but you can play around with these settings to find the right balance for your content. Additional settings include Style exaggeration, which amplifies the style of the original voice, and Speaker boost, which enhances the similarity between synthesized speech and the voice. Note that if either of those settings is adjusted, generating your speech will take longer. Note: Some voices in the Multilingual v2 model tend to have inconsistent volume—fading out toward the end—when generating lengthy clips. This is a known issue with the underlying model, and our AI subprocessor for text-to-speech is working to address it. In the meantime, we suggest the following workarounds: Use a different voice Switch to the Flash v2.5 model Increase the voice’s stability Manually break your text into smaller chunks to generate shorter clips Do I Need to Use SSML? AI Assistant has limited support for speech synthesis markup language (SSML) because AI-generated voices are designed to understand the relationship between words and adjust delivery accordingly. If you need to manually control pacing, you can add a pause. The most consistent way to do that is by inserting the syntax <break time="1.5s" /> into your script. This creates an exact and natural pause in the speech. For example: With their keen senses <break time="1.5s" /> cats are skilled hunters. Use seconds to describe a break of up to three seconds in length. You can try a simple dash - or em-dash — to insert a brief pause or multiple dashes for a longer pause. Ellipsis ... will also sometimes work to add a pause between words. However, these options may not work consistently, so we recommend using the syntax above for consistency. Just keep in mind that an excessive number of break tags can potentially cause instability. Multilingual Voices Expand Your Reach Another compelling benefit of AI-generated text-to-speech is the ability to bridge language gaps, allowing you to connect with international audiences. With support for up to 32 languages depending on the model—including some with multiple accents and dialects—AI Assistant’s text-to-speech helps your content resonate with a global audience. All you have to do is type or paste your script in the supported language you want AI Assistant to use. (Even though the voice description notes a specific accent or language, AI Assistant will generate the narration in the language used in your script.) Note that some voices tend to work best with certain accents or languages, so feel free to experiment with different voices to find the best fit for your needs. The table below provides a quick rundown of supported languages. Available in Multilingual v2 and Flash v2.5: Arabic (Saudi Arabia) Arabic (UAE) Bulgarian Chinese Croatian Czech Danish Dutch English (Australia) English (Canada) English (UK) English (USA) Filipino Finnish French (Canada) French (France) German Greek Hindi Indonesian Italian Japanese Korean Malay Polish Portuguese (Brazil) Portuguese (Portugal) Romanian Russian Slovak Spanish (Mexico) Spanish (Spain) Swedish Tamil Turkish Ukrainian Available only in Flash v2.5: Hungarian Norwegian Vietnamese Create Sound Effects Using Prompts Sound effects that align with your theme and content can highlight important actions or feedback, like clicking a button or choosing a correct answer, offering a more engaging and effective e-learning experience. With AI Assistant’s sound effects, you can now use prompts to easily create nearly any sound imaginable. No more wasting time scouring the web for pre-made sounds that may cost extra! Start creating high-quality sound effects by going to the AI Assistant menu in the ribbon under the Home or Insert tab. Then, click the lower half of the Insert Audio icon, and choose Sound Effects. (You can also access it from the Audio dropdown within the Insert tab. Simply select Sound Effects under the AI Audio option.) In the text box, describe the sound effect you want and choose a duration. You can adjust the Prompt influence slider to give AI Assistant more or less creative license in generating the sound. Since AI Assistant understands natural language, sound effects can be created using anything from a simple prompt like “a single mouse click” to a very complex one that describes multiple sounds or a sequence of sounds in a specific order. Just note you have a maximum of 450 characters to describe the sound you want to generate. Play the following audio samples to listen to sound effects created using a simple prompt and a complex one. Your browser does not support the audio element. Prompt: A single mouse click Your browser does not support the audio element. Prompt: Dogs barking, then lightning strikes You can also adjust the Duration—how long the sound effect plays—up to a maximum of 22 seconds. For example, if your prompt is “barking dog” and you set the duration to 10 seconds, you’ll get continuous barking, but a duration of two seconds is one quick bark. Adjusting the Prompt Influence slider to the right makes AI Assistant strictly adhere to your prompt, while sliding it to the left allows more free interpretation. Pro tip: You can instantly determine if your sound effect has closed captions by the CC label that appears next to each output. Some Pro Terms to Know Using audio terminology—specialized vocabulary that audio experts use in their work—can help improve your prompts and produce even more dynamic sound effects. Here are a few examples: Braam: A deep, resonant, and often distorted bass sound used in media, particularly in trailers, to create a sense of tension, power, or impending doom. Whoosh: A quick, swooshing sound often used to emphasize fast motion, transitions, or dramatic moments. Impact: A sharp, striking noise used to signify a collision, hit, or sudden forceful contact, often to highlight a moment of action or emphasis. Glitch: A short, jarring, and usually digital noise that mimics a malfunction or distortion, commonly used to convey errors. Foley: The process of recreating and recording everyday sound effects like movements and object sounds in sync with the visuals of a film, videos, or other media. Here’s something fun to try! Generate a 3-second sound effect using the prompt “studio quality, sound designed whoosh and braam impact.” Increasing the duration may produce better sound effects but will also create more dead air towards the end. Pro tip: Onomatopoeias—words like “buzz,” “boom,” “click,” and “pop” that imitate natural sounds—are also important sound effects terms. Use them in your prompts to create more realistic sound effects. Video Tutorials Want to learn more before getting started?

AI Assistant: Setting the Stage for AI Magic
Before diving into the course creation process, you want your authoring tool to be tailored to your specific requirements so you can focus on developing high-quality content. With features designed to streamline your workflow, AI Assistant allows you to do just that. Available only in Rise 360, AI Assistant’s course outline generation and AI settings features boost your efficiency—setting the stage for AI magic! Get a Head Start Just as a builder uses a blueprint, course authors depend on a well-organized outline to guide learners toward their objectives. AI Assistant’s course outline generation feature jumpstarts your course creation process by instantly generating a course title, description, and full set of lesson titles based on your chosen topic or source material. To get started, click the Create New button on the left of the Rise 360 dashboard, hover on Course, and choose Start with AI. Using custom prompts, guide AI Assistant by describing your topic, target audience—referenced when you write and edit inline content—and learning objectives. The more details you provide, the better the suggestions will be. If you have existing source content, upload it for AI Assistant’s reference. Otherwise, you can rely on AI Assistant’s general knowledge. Pro tip: Currently, AI Assistant doesn’t use Bloom’s Taxonomy or other similar frameworks when analyzing what you enter in the learning objectives field. Therefore, you’ll get the best results by entering high-level topics or traditionally formatted learning objectives. For instance, if you enter “Tennis rules” as a high-level objective, AI Assistant generates a generic outline based on that topic. If you want specific outcomes, however, you might enter “Learners will be able to summarize the rules of tennis” to generate more targeted output. AI Assistant will generate a few course title suggestions first—you can pick one from the list or make further changes. Then you can proceed with the outline generation. Refine the outline as needed before applying it. For example, you can edit the number of lessons, change the lesson titles, or reorganize the lesson order. Once you’re happy with the result, click Insert Course Outline. From there, you can use AI Assistant to add content to each lesson by clicking the Add Content button next to the lesson title. When you generate a new block inside a lesson using AI Assistant, you’ll see suggested topics based on your course outline. At any time you want to review your AI-generated course outline, click the View course outline button below the title on the course overview page. This opens the AI settings window to the Course outline tab. You can also click AI Assistant in the top right, select AI settings, and then click the Course outline tab. Here, you can copy the course outline content—including the original prompts you entered about the topic, target audience, and learning objectives—with just a click. However, this view doesn’t reflect any changes made to the lesson titles after the course outline generation, only the course title updates. Keep Any Documents Handy As a course author, you probably start gathering assets and reference materials right after choosing a topic and writing an outline. While you can now generate content from scratch using AI, you may also want to create courses based on existing documents. You can import source documents to use as a reference whenever you want to generate new content using AI Assistant. But instead of uploading reference materials each time, you can keep them all in one place by uploading them in the Source content tab of the AI settings window before you start. Access AI settings from the AI Assistant dropdown menu in the upper right. Drag and drop files into the Source content tab or click Choose file to upload them. Supported file types and limitations are listed in the following table. Content Type File Extension File Size Limit Character Limit Portable Document Format .pdf 1 GB 200k Microsoft Word .doc , .docx Microsoft PowerPoint .ppt , .pptx Text .text , .txt Captions .vtt , .srt , .sbv , .sub Storyline 360 .story Audio .mp3 , .wav , .m4a Video .mp4 , .webm , .ogg Website URL — — Tips: For PDF, Word, PowerPoint, and Storyline 360 source documents, AI Assistant only references extractable text. Images, audio, and video are not included. To use an existing Rise 360 course as source content, export the course to PDF, then upload the resulting file. Audio and video files are transcribed and then processed like caption files, so it’s faster if you just upload a caption file. Only text-based content contained in publicly accessible URLs is supported. Website URLs that require authentication, block crawlers, redirect to inaccessible content, or sit behind paywalls will not work. While there’s no hard limit on how many files you can upload to use as source content for AI Assistant, we recommend uploading only what you need for faster processing. If you don’t have entire files as reference, you can also copy and paste content from the source into the text box provided.

Fun Animated Timer for Gamification Projects
Hi Articulate heroes, I wanted to highlight one very fast but fun-looking way to create timers for interactive projects. I've learned about this way from "Gamification Series; 05: Creating Tension with Timers." You can check out these amazing webinars Gamification series, and there was a few different ways to add timers to projects. I used it in my recent project "Cooking Frienzy" - Jeopardy-style cooking-game. (btw you can check out the full game: Cooking Frienzy So, here are the steps: 1) Create / find a "timer" picture - it could be any image with transparent background what works for your theme (in my case it is "Pomodoro" timer, made with AI help, saved as .png ) 2) Add this image as a picture (insert an image). 3) Go to Animation tab 4) Choose Exit Animation - "Wipe", go to "Effect Options" - "From Right". Set the animation timer for whatever time you need (10 sec., 30 sec., 1 min etc.) 5) Set triggers to what will happen after the timer is done (animation completed): i.e. jump to the next slide, show "result-fail" etc. 6) Preview and adjust if needed 🤞

An AI-Powered Knowledge Check in Storyline
I've been wrestling with this challenge for a while: How do we get learners to reflect without relying on quiz after quiz? How can we use open-ended questions to encourage deeper thought? I've long considered AI for this, but there were hurdles... How do you integrate it into an Articulate Storyline course without paying for tokens or setting up contracts? And how do you do it without leaking credentials in the course itself? Can it be done without having to modify code after exporting the course? I learned recently that Hugging Face Transformers provide a solution. You can now download an AI model to the learner's machine and run it locally in their browser. I've managed to get this running reliably in Storyline, and you don't have to modify the code after export! In the final slide of the demo, your goal is to recall as much as possible from the podcast/summary. The AI will then check your response and give you a percentage score based on what you remembered. Live demo & tutorial here: https://insertknowledge.com/building-an-ai-powered-knowledge-check-in-storyline/ If you want to learn how I recommend starting with the sentiment analysis because it's easier to get started. I've also provided a file to download in that tutorial if you want to reverse engineer it.

AI Assistant: Creating, Refining, and Converting Blocks
Blank page problem? Not when you have AI Assistant! You don’t need to start from scratch because you can now easily generate, edit, and convert blocks in seconds. Our human-centered AI block generation process works with you to draft your content, ensuring that you stay in control every step of the way. Available only in Rise 360, AI Assistant’s block generation, block editing, and quick block conversion features can be accessed in multiple ways. Find them in the AI Assistant menu in the upper right, the block formatting menu on the left when you hover over a block, the shortcuts bar at the bottom, and within the block library. Are you ready to get started? Here are some tips for using these block generation features to enhance your course creation process. Create New Blocks from Scratch Refine Existing Blocks Convert Existing Blocks to Another Type Supported Blocks Create New Blocks from Scratch Spend less time putting your thoughts into words—just pick a block to generate. Enter a topic, select reference materials, and let AI Assistant draft the content. Use custom prompts to guide AI Assistant in revising and polishing your draft. When you’re happy with the final copy, click Insert block and see your new block appear. It couldn't be easier! Use Source Content and Specify a Topic You can upload source documents in AI settings or when creating a new block and select them as a reference. AI Assistant uses the content in those documents whenever you generate new content. If you don’t have full files to upload, you can copy and paste content from external sources. The topic you specify guides AI Assistant in narrowing down the content from your source documents. This is especially useful when you have multiple source documents. If you specify a topic that isn't in your selected reference material—existing lessons or source documents—AI Assistant can also generate content using general knowledge. For best results when specifying a topic, try asking AI Assistant to: Focus on a particular subject within the source material. For example, you could say, “Focus on strawberries” when working with a source document about fruit. Focus on a specific section. For instance, “Focus on chapter two” ” when working with a source document with multiple chapters. Write in a particular order using specific source documents. For example, “Write an overview of all my source docs, write an introduction about fruit, write a conclusion about fruit.” AI Assistant also generates relevant topic suggestions when you select source documents. These are displayed above the prompt input box as quick-action buttons. Outline Your Content When creating a list or interactive block, AI Assistant generates an outline before drafting the content. For a sorting activity block, AI Assistant brainstorms the categories after you choose the topic and select the block type. You can then click one from the list or enter one of your own. This particular step gives you a bird’s-eye view of the main topics covered in your block, letting you arrange the main content and structure of your block. Focus on big-picture items like what topics to cover, what order the content will appear in, and how content will be separated into different sections of the block. Polish Your Draft In the final step of the block generation process, AI Assistant shares a full block draft. Now you get to collaborate with AI Assistant to finalize the copy for your block. You can task AI Assistant with doing just about anything here—changing the tone, target audience, format, or topics. Or, get creative! Try asking AI Assistant to: Add scenarios or examples Add pros and cons Add key takeaways Simplify or paraphrase Add more or less text Bold key terms Add emojis Add bulleted lists Note that AI Assistant doesn't support generating media such as images, audio, and video within generated blocks. While AI Assistant is designed to adhere to your topic and source materials, always check for accuracy. AI can't read your mind! It follows instructions but can struggle with context or knowledge gaps and may generate incorrect information. Before clicking Insert block, double-check the output. And if you’ve already inserted the block but want to make changes, use the write and edit inline or block editing features. You can also provide quick feedback to help improve AI Assistant without disrupting your workflow. Use the simple thumbs-up or thumbs-down feedback tool on the right. Clicking the thumbs-up icon means you like the content AI Assistant generated. Clicking the thumbs-down icon indicates you dislike it and gives you specific options for adding context to your feedback, including the opportunity to write your own comments. Our engineering team will review your feedback and use it to improve AI Assistant for everyone. Refine Existing Blocks In addition to generating new content, AI Assistant makes editing existing content easier than ever with its block editing feature. Use custom prompts to set the tone as more casual or professional, or target a specific audience by simplifying the language or adding technical terms. You can also shorten or lengthen content, or even completely change the topic. Since editing a block allows you to interact with AI Assistant using custom prompts, experiment and have fun! Remember, though, that AI Assistant rejects malicious requests and automatically blocks offensive content. After refining your content, choose to replace the original or insert the modified block below it to compare changes. Convert Existing Blocks to Another Type Want to see how your content would look in a different block? That used to mean tedious copy-pasting from one block into another. But with AI Assistant’s quick block conversion feature, you can convert an existing block into a different type in a flash. Turn a static list block into an interactive flashcard in just two clicks, or condense interactive blocks into a statement or a paragraph block. When converting blocks, AI Assistant retains as much of the original content as possible. AI Assistant maps the content between the two block types to retain content and generates new content only when necessary.
