Storyline's 100th Release
Articulate hit an important milestone recently that we wanted to share with you—we've hit our 100th month of Storyline releases 🎉 That means that for 100 months running, we’ve shipped updates to our products, from small UI enhancements and bug fixes to big, net-new features like text-to-speech and 360 degree images. (You can check out our entire release history, including the features in our 100th release, here). This community is an absolutely crucial part of how we got here, and we wanted to celebrate with you. Our team put together this video we wanted to share celebrating this shared achievement: You’ve generously shared your kind words about Articulate, and how it supports your work in the E-Learning industry, for us to include in this video. But, we wanted to make sure to also tell you how much we love you. Here’s what our product team had to say about how working with this community supported these releases: "It has been a true pleasure collaborating with our customers through the private beta program over the past seven years. I am continually impressed by the innovative ways they leverage Storyline! Assisting them in overcoming project challenges has significantly enhanced my own understanding of the product, and I am thankful for the opportunity to partner with them in improving our features for all users. I would especially like to acknowledge​​ AndreasNeuberg​, PhilMayor​, GaryBaldock1​, TracyParish​, and many others for their active participation in our Beta program." - Vanessa Fage, Staff QA Engineer & Quality Lead “For years, our customers have been instrumental in shaping accessibility, from helping refine the Accessible Player to influencing new features like the Accessibility Checker in Storyline 360. Through user research, early access testing, beta testing, and feedback, you've helped ensure a smoother experience for creating accessible content. A heartfelt thank you to all our customers who shared their insights, with special recognition to DianeElkins​, MelanieSobie-14​, DonnaWestwood​, MartinBrown-1ab​, RayeShilen​, LoicBENARD​, MadalinaMano183​, AndreasNeuberg​, and many others!” - Ronnie Pilman, CPACC, Senior QA Engineer II & Accessibility Lead “Recently we’ve been inviting customers to get early access to new features, and it’s been incredibly valuable to hear your feedback earlier and more often throughout the development process. Your input has directly shaped how these features look and function, helping us build features that truly meet your needs. A big thank you to all who participated—especially GregoryFauchill​, jeff-batt​, MathNotermans-9​, PhilMayor​, rachelatkaiser​, and HarriS​ for their active participation & feedback on the new JavaScript API & corner radius feature.” - Annie Kim, Storyline Product Manager Is there a time when you remember participating with us to improve Storyline? Did you take part in a beta program, suggest a feature that got turned into a real part of our product, or take part in a user interview? Let us know in the comments. Psst—we know we've come a long way, and we still have a long way to go! We wanted to share that this year, we're investing in making our product feedback cycles in this community even better. Look out for improvements to our product ideation boards and beta programs in the coming quarters.You're Hired!
Rather than make a series of clickable objects, I tried to create a more dynamic experience where the user can actually meet fellow employees, each with their own personality, voice, and knowledge base. In this example, the user can select a team member, meet them in their office, and through an AI interface, ask them real-time questions just as they would in a live onboarding session. I tried to give each character their own personality that comes through in their responses, so feel free to ask whatever you want -- you should get a coherent response. The ultimate goal is to create an onboarding experience feels more "human" and engaging, but is also scalable, with avatars that can be retrained as company knowledge grows.

This is a demo of what and Office Exploration could look like, if you combine Storyline with Powtoon and Adobe Stock assets. I originally started building this for Moving Beyond E-Learning's Next Button #462, but couldn't finish it in time. Have fun exploring it! Challenge#528 - Office Exploration Interaction | Review 360How To Embed An ElevenLabs Conversational AI Widget Into SL360 Using JS!
Hi Heroes, It feels like something new and exciting is always around the corner in the world of generative AI technology, and this week ElevenLabs put themselves firmly in the driving seat of the agentic AI revolution with their new Conversational AI toolkit. If you haven't heard of this yet, check out this video which explains it all: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v-EYzZCLF48&ab_channel=ElevenLabs The interactive, animated widget that this toolkit provided is easy to embed anywhere, including directly within an Articulate Storyline 360 project slide! If you're interested in how to get started, I've written a blog post that includes all the steps, including an Execute JavaScript snippet you can use to effortlessly get your agent loaded into your activity: https://discoverelearninguk.com/how-to-set-up-elevenlabs-conversational-ai-widget-in-articulate-storyline-360/ I'm also currently experimenting with the API for the new Conversational toolkit to understand how I can implement it into my eLearning Magic Toolkit plugin for Storyline + WordPress, potentially opening the door for developing real-time voice activated automation all within a Storyline-built eLearning activity! Much more to come very soon. 🚀 --- My name's Chris Hodgson, an eLearning developer and software trainer based in the UK. I enjoy creating fun, unique, and engaging online experiences using Articulate software!
