Designed for instructional designers, developers, and training teams using Articulate Storyline and modern authoring tools.

Workflow Integration

AI Grounded in Real Elearning Workflows

Generic AI chatbots produce unstructured text that requires hours of reformatting to fit into course authoring software. Cluelabs AI tools are built around the specific deliverables course creators produce every day: screen-by-screen storyboards, developer notes, narration audio, accessible captions, and interactive scenario logic.

  • Built for instructional designGenerate structured slide outlines, practice exercises, and developer notes instead of generic blog-style paragraphs.
  • Direct authoring handoffExport content and assets formatted for Articulate Storyline, Adobe Captivate, Word, Google Docs, CSV, and PDF.
  • Complete editorial controlReview, edit, refine, or regenerate any text, script, prompt, or media asset at every stage of the project.
  • Commercial ownershipRetain full commercial rights to all generated narration audio, captions, graphics, sound effects, and course text.

Storyboarding & Media Production

Content Studio: Storyboard and Produce Course Media in One Workspace

Content Studio is a dedicated workspace between your source material and authoring tool. Turn raw documents or topics into an editable slide-by-slide storyboard, draft practice activities, and produce all supporting media assets in one place.

Explore Content Studio

  • Source-to-storyboard generationPaste source notes, describe a topic, or import Word documents, Google Docs, or CSV files to generate structured outlines and slides.
  • Contextual interaction designDraft branching scenarios, case studies, trivia games, drag-and-drop exercises, and quiz questions based on surrounding lesson context.
  • Full-spectrum media productionGenerate realistic voiceover narration across multiple languages, synchronized SRT captions, custom graphics, sound effects, and background music.
  • Project style consistencyAnchor visuals with reference images and set project-level voice profiles so all slides stay visually and acoustically consistent over time.

Conversational Role-Plays

AI Interactions: Add Realistic Role-Plays and Scenarios to Storyline or Publish Standalone Web Pages

Add conversational practice to your courses without scripting hundreds of rigid branching paths. Learners speak or type to AI characters that react in real time, stay in role, and evaluate performance against defined rubrics.

Explore AI Interactions

  • Embedded Storyline integrationConnect AI agents to Storyline using pre-built variables and JavaScript triggers with our downloadable starter template.
  • Grounded in your training materialsUpload manuals, SOPs, and policy documents up to 15MB so the AI character references verified company knowledge and never invents facts.
  • Spoken and typed practiceAllow learners to speak naturally via device microphone or type text, with the AI responding in realistic synthesized voice or text.
  • Objective rubric scoringAutomatically evaluate open-ended learner responses, passing numeric scores, feedback text, and pass/fail statuses directly to Storyline variables for LMS tracking.

Accessibility & Transcription

Closed Captioning: Fast Speech-to-Text with Script-Matched Accuracy

Make course audio accessible to every learner without spending hours manually creating timestamps or correcting speech-to-text mishearings. Convert narration audio into timed SRT closed caption files and clean transcripts in seconds.

Explore Closed Captioning

  • Script-matching quality controlUpload your original narration script alongside audio files so AI matches timing to your exact words, punctuation, and technical terms.
  • Bulk audio uploadDrag and drop all slide audio files across your entire course (MP3, WAV, M4A up to 16MB) to process them in a single batch.
  • In-browser caption editorReview and edit lines and timestamps in the browser alongside an integrated audio player before downloading.
  • Ready for authoring softwareDownload individual SRT files or a complete ZIP archive ready to import into Storyline, Captivate, Camtasia, or video players.

Course Localization

Course Translation: Localize Storyboards and Course Documents

Deliver training to international teams quickly. Translate your course content into dozens of languages while keeping your storyboard structure, developer notes, and document formatting organized.

Explore Course Translation

  • Storyboard-level translationSelect an existing Content Studio project and choose specific fields to translate—such as narration or on-screen text—keeping slide IDs and interaction design intact.
  • Structured Word document localizationUpload bilingual two-column Word tables (.docx) to generate side-by-side translations ready for stakeholder and SME review.
  • Asynchronous batch processingRun large multi-chapter translation projects in the background without needing to keep your browser tab open.
  • Professional review optionsAccess custom project services for human proofreading and certified linguistic review when compliance training demands human verification.

Development Lifecycle

How Cluelabs AI Fits Your Course Development Process

  1. Kickoff & Storyboarding

    Upload your source material into Content Studio to generate a structured outline, slide scripts, developer notes, and interactive practice activities.

  2. Media Creation & Styling

    Generate voiceover narration, custom course illustrations, sound effects, and background music that match your project style rules.

  3. Interactive Scenario Design

    Build conversational role-plays in AI Interactions, upload training context, and connect the activity to Storyline variables for live scoring.

  4. Accessibility & Localization

    Generate script-matched SRT captions for all narration audio, then translate storyboards and documents into target languages for global delivery.

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Do these AI tools require technical or coding skills?

No. Every tool is designed for instructional designers and elearning developers. Storyboarding, captioning, and translation work through clear visual forms. For AI Interactions in Articulate Storyline, we provide a pre-built starter template containing all necessary triggers and variables so you can get started without writing code.

Does Cluelabs use proprietary training materials to train public AI models?

No. Your uploaded course materials, documents, scripts, and generated assets remain private to your account. Cluelabs does not use your proprietary content to train public foundational AI models.

How do these tools work with Articulate Storyline and Adobe Captivate?

Cluelabs tools are built to integrate directly with your authoring software. Content Studio exports storyboards to Word, Google Docs, CSV, and PDF for developer handoff; Closed Captioning produces standard SRT files that import directly into Storyline and Captivate audio tracks; and AI Interactions connects to Storyline via Web Objects and JavaScript triggers.

Can I edit everything generated by the AI?

Yes. AI generates the initial draft to take care of repetitive tasks, but you retain complete editorial control. You can revise slide copy, adjust narration timing, tweak graphic prompts, rephrase interaction feedback, and edit caption text directly in the platform.

Are generated assets licensed for commercial use?

Yes. You retain full commercial rights to all text, narration audio, captions, graphics, sound effects, and music generated on the platform for use in internal corporate training, commercial courses, and client deliverables.
