Litmos, a leading provider of corporate learning solutions, has announced a significant expansion of its artificial intelligence (AI) product offerings, integrating advanced generative AI features into its Content Authoring Tool (CAT), and introducing the Litmos AI Assistant and AI Playlists.
These updates aim to redefine how organizations deliver, personalize, and secure employee training at scale.
Overview of Litmos’ AI Portfolio Expansion
The AI product updates mark a key milestone for Litmos, which serves over 4,000 companies and 30 million users worldwide.
The new features are purpose-built for improving content creation, learner autonomy, and administrative efficiency within learning and development (L&D) ecosystems.
• The Litmos AI Assistant, launched in May 2024, helps with course recommendations, summarization, assignment workflows, and knowledge clarification.
• AI Playlists, introduced in September 2024, allow learners to curate their own training paths based on personal or professional goals.
• The enhanced Content Authoring Tool now includes generative AI to support rapid content development and improved instructional design.
These AI-powered solutions are designed to help administrators, content creators, and employees benefit from more adaptive and efficient learning experiences.
Leadership Perspective: Reimagining the Learning Experience
Litmos CEO Michael Scarbrough highlighted the company’s long-term vision to transform how corporate training is delivered using intelligent automation.
“By harnessing the power of artificial intelligence, Litmos is creating transformational, adaptive learning experiences that empower learners, administrators, and content creators to cultivate a more skilled and future-ready organization,” said Michael Scarbrough, CEO of Litmos.
Scarbrough emphasized that Litmos’ AI tools are not just automation features—they represent a rethinking of the role technology plays in lifelong learning.
Analyst View: Lowering the Barriers to Quality Learning Design
Independent experts have also endorsed the value of Litmos’ new AI capabilities, particularly in supporting content creators who may not have formal instructional design experience.
“Generative AI has a huge role to play in learning and development and is already significantly impacting learning design and content production,” said Fiona Leteney, Senior Analyst, Fosway Group. “Litmos has been able to build on its existing design expertise to provide AI tools to help subject matter experts produce something close to the quality of a professional learning designer, but much faster and without instructional design training.”
This is especially relevant for HR and L&D professionals who need to produce high-quality training materials at scale without relying on external vendors or time-consuming manual design.
Security, Privacy, and Compliance: Built Into the Infrastructure
Unlike many commercial AI platforms that rely on public data-sharing environments, Litmos has built its AI products on a proprietary infrastructure that maintains strict data isolation and regulatory adherence.
• All customer data and content remain secured within each organization’s LMS tenant.
• Litmos AI does not share training materials or learner data across customer environments.
• The infrastructure is fully compliant with GDPR, SOC II, and CCPA standards.
This setup ensures organizations can safely upload and use sensitive materials such as employee policies, internal workflows, and proprietary training documents without risk of data exposure.
Litmos will showcase its expanded AI capabilities at the Learning Technologies Conference, scheduled for April 23–24, at Booth K50.
The company will provide live demos of the AI tools and insights into how enterprise customers are using them to enhance workforce performance.
