Learnlist Creation (Open Beta)
Volt's learnlist creation agents allow you to generate and maintain structured learning paths using natural language instructions. These features are currently in Open Beta, available to Admins and Owners with Volt enabled.
Overview
Putting together a learnlist that really works for your learners takes time. Volt's learnlist agents can generate a full learning path from a single prompt, suggest content to enrich it, and update it whenever you need — drawing on your content library, web resources, or uploaded files.
This feature is currently in Open Beta. You can enable it from Company Settings → AI Features.

FAQs
Q: Where does Volt source content for learnlists?
Volt can draw from your indexed content library (via Content Search), the web (via Web Search, if enabled), or uploaded files (via File Upload). The more content you have indexed and the more agents you have enabled, the more useful Volt's suggestions will be.
Q: Can I give Volt specific constraints for the learnlist?
Yes. You can specify the audience, duration, topics to include or exclude, preferred formats, and more. The more detail you provide in your prompt, the more tailored the output will be.
Q: What's the difference between Learnlist Creator and Learnlist Supplementer?
Learnlist Creator generates a new learnlist from scratch. Learnlist Supplementer works with an existing learnlist and suggests additional content to enrich it, without replacing what's already there.
Q: Can I update a learnlist Volt has already created?
Yes — use the Learnlist Updater agent. You can update learnlists created by Volt or learnlists you've created manually.
