Empower learners with an always-on expert that knows exactly what you teach—no outside data required.
🌟 What is the AI Companion?
The AI Companion is an intelligent chat assistant embedded right into your course. Learners can ask questions in plain English and get answers based exclusively on the course materials you’ve uploaded and authorized. It’s like a personal “Stump the Expert” session—only the expert is always available and always accurate.
🧠 How It Works
- Go to: Instructor space > Select a course > Resources & AI
- You upload files under the Resources & AI tab.
- You choose which of those files the AI Companion can access.
- The AI Companion processes only those approved files.
- Learners ask questions and receive instant answers, drawn directly from the allowed content.
🔐 Why It Matters – Information Segmentation
This feature is built for secure, segmented knowledge sharing:
- The AI only “knows” what you explicitly allow.
- Different teams, roles, or courses can have custom AI knowledge bases.
- It ensures that sensitive or irrelevant information remains inaccessible to learners and the AI.
💡 Real Use Case:
You’re training sales, support, and compliance teams.
Each group needs different material. With the AI Companion:
- Each team gets a tailored assistant based on its own course content.
- You prevent knowledge leaks between departments.
- You empower learners to explore and ask — without relying on instructors.
🎓 Learner View:
Learners simply type a question into the AI chat panel. The AI Companion replies using your uploaded, approved materials — instantly, accurately, and in context.

Upload wisely, enable selectively, and create a secure, expert-like learning experience for every course.
