FAQs

What are Smartcat’s AI Agents?

Smartcat’s AI Agents are advanced tools designed to automate tasks like content creation, translation, and localization with minimal human guidance.

They are built on powerful large language models (LLMs), allowing them to understand context and trigger subsequent actions in a workflow.

Unlike simple automation, they learn from your team’s feedback. Each edit helps the Agent improve, leading to higher quality and smarter outputs over time.

What are AI authoring tools for microlearning?

AI authoring tools for microlearning are platforms that use artificial intelligence to help create, translate, and manage bite-sized training content quickly and efficiently.

These tools automate many of the time-intensive steps in content production, such as drafting text, localizing it for different regions, and formatting it for delivery.

The goal is to enable L&D teams to produce engaging and effective micro-courses at scale, without the traditional production bottlenecks.

How does the Learning Content Agent work?

You simply upload your course material, such as a SCORM file or slide deck. The agent then helps you structure, translate, and localize it within a single interface.

It can produce multilingual versions instantly while preserving the original layout and any interactive elements.

Your team can then review, edit, and publish the content directly from Smartcat or export it in a format ready for your Learning Management System (LMS).

How do AI Agents ensure the quality of my training content?

Smartcat AI Agents operate on a continuous learning loop. They improve with every human correction, adapting to your brand's voice, approved terminology, and specific compliance rules.

This human-in-the-loop system is crucial for regulated industries, ensuring that all automated content remains accurate and compliant.

Can I invite my team to review and edit content?

Yes, Smartcat is built for collaboration. You can invite instructional designers, reviewers, and other stakeholders to edit, comment, or approve content in real time.

You can assign roles and languages, track changes, and lock content segments to maintain control. This streamlines the review process and improves team alignment.

What other types of Agents are available?

Smartcat provides a suite of AI Agents for various content needs. This includes a PDF Agent for manuals, a Marketing Agent for web copy, and a Website Agent for site localization.

Each Agent is designed to automate a specific content workflow. Discover all Smartcat Agents.

How do these tools compare to traditional microlearning authoring tools?

Traditional microlearning authoring tools focus primarily on content creation. To localize that content, you typically need a separate, multi-step process involving translators and reformatting.

In contrast, ai authoring tools for microlearning like Smartcat integrate content creation and localization into a single, automated workflow.

This unified approach dramatically reduces production time and the hands-on effort required to prepare training for global audiences.

Can I customize my own workflows?

Yes, with Smartcat’s Agent Builder, you can design a custom AI Agent using a no-code interface. You define the tasks, training data, and review steps to match your team's exact process.

This allows you to automate unique workflows and integrate with tools like Articulate, Jira, or your LMS.

Why should I use AI for my learning content?

Using AI for learning content significantly reduces creation time and costs. Studies show that leveraging AI for appropriate tasks can boost worker productivity substantially.

For L&D, this translates to faster content development and localization. Companies using Smartcat have cut translation costs by up to 70% and reduced turnaround times by weeks.

What content types can the AI Agent process?

The Learning Content Agent handles a wide array of formats, including SCORM packages, XLIFF files, videos with subtitles, quizzes, PDFs, and slide decks.

It is also compatible with interactive content like knowledge checks and simulations, preserving their structure and logic during translation.

Do I need to reformat content before uploading it to my LMS?

No, a key benefit of Smartcat is its ability to preserve your original content structure. Localized files are exported in a format ready for direct upload to your LMS.

This eliminates the need to copy and paste translations or manually re-link elements within your authoring tool, saving significant time and effort.

What languages do Smartcat AI Agents support?

Smartcat AI Agents support over 280 languages and dialects, providing comprehensive coverage for global markets.

This ensures you can deliver training content in the language that your learners understand best, which helps improve knowledge retention and performance.
