Sage AI Transform is part of our set of artificial intelligence features. Sage AI Transform takes content you provide (plain text for now but, in the future, files or content in existing elements in your topic) and transforms that content into one of our other elements - such as a quiz or flipcards.
Sage AI Transform accelerates the creation of your online training content by repurposing existing content and transforming it into one of our interactive elements.
NOTE: Access to all Sage AI features is plan dependent. Sage AI Transform requires an annual Starter/Lite or Active/Business plan. Organisations on legacy monthly plans will not have access to this feature.
In addition, more complex uses of Sage AI Transform require an Active/Business plan. Access requirements for each use of Sage AI Transform are outlined in this article.
NOTE: Use of all Sage AI features are optional. All Sage AI features follow our approach to responsible AI usage. Your content is not shared with any third party, all AI operations occur within Australia and your content is not used to train any AI model.
What does the Sage AI Transform element do?
Creators can use Sage AI Transform to automatically convert existing content into one of our interactive online learning elements.
The purpose of Sage AI Transform is to help creators through the process of taking their existing content - for example, an explanation of a process in a SOP, information about a product from a training manual or a script in a Narration element - and transforming it into an element in the platform - for example, a quiz, set of flipcards, or an acronym interaction.
Sage AI Transform uses a large language model (LLM) to not just analyse your provided content, but also rewrite it in a way that suits the new element. For example, if flipcards are selected, then the AI will rewrite the content in a way which suits flipcards - a very short summary / title for the front of each flipcard and a suitable length explanation for the back of the flip card. As another example, if a quiz is created, it will include correct and incorrect answers plus feedback about the correct answer for the learner.
What content can be provided to Sage AI Transform?
Creators can use the following sources of content to provide information for the AI to work with.
Plain text - Lite or Business Plan - Creators can paste in up to 10,000 characters of plain text for content. This may be copied from a document, PDF or website for example.
File - Coming soon.
Website - Coming soon.
Topic - Coming soon.
What elements can Sage AI Transform create?
Creators can transform content into these output elements. The required plan for access to each element and the options for each element are outlined below.
Accordion - Business Plan - Creates an accordion (Interact) interaction. Creators can select how many items for the accordion. Provides instructions plus a title and content for each accordion item.
Acronym - Business Plan - Creates an acronym (Interact) interaction. Creators can select the word for the acronym (which should be given as an acronym with full stops between each letter - like S.M.A.R.T.). Provides instructions and then summarises the content based around the acronym (e.g. S is for Smart, which means...).
Buttons - Business Plan - Creates an buttons (Interact) interaction. Creators can select how many items for the buttons. Provides instructions plus a title (one word) and content for each button.
Card - Business Plan - Creates an card (Interact) interaction. Creators can select how many items for the card (each item is one card). Provides instructions plus a title and content for each card.
Columns - Coming soon.
Fill-in - Coming soon.
Flipcard - Business Plan - Creates an flipcard (Interact) interaction. Creators can select how many items for the flipcards (each item is one flipcard). Provides instructions plus a title and content for each flipcard.
Hotspot - Coming soon.
Insight - Coming soon.
List - Business Plan - Creates a list (Interact) interaction. Creators can select how many items for the list. Provides instructions plus a title and content for each list item. The bullet list layout is used by default, but creators can select different layouts after creation by editing the element.
Match - Coming soon.
Narration - Coming soon.
Process - Business Plan - Creates an process (Interact) interaction. Creators can select how many steps in the process. Provides instructions plus a title and content for each step. Note that this output requires content which represents a process and steps - using content which does not naturally break into 'steps' may lead to unpredictable output from the AI.
Q&A - Coming soon.
Quiz - Lite or Business Plan - Creates a multiple choice quiz with options for how many answers to be included in the quiz. Provides the question, answers, correct answer and post-submission feedback.
Quote - Coming soon.
Sort - Coming soon.
Tabs - Business Plan - Creates an tabs (Interact) interaction. Creators can select how many items for the tabs. Provides instructions plus a title and content for each tab.
Text - Coming soon.
Timeline - Business Plan - Creates an timeline (Interact) interaction. Creators can select how many steps in the process. Provides instructions plus a title and content for each step. Note that this output requires content which represents events over a time period - using content which does not naturally break into 'events' may lead to unpredictable output from the AI.
How do I use Sage AI Transform?
Sage AI Transform is found in the Content box when editing a topic. Creators can open the Content box as they would for inserting any new element. The first option in the Content box is Transform. Click on Transform to begin the process.
NOTE: Transform uses a recently added browser feature (popover) that works with all modern browsers (Chrome, Edge, Safari and Firefox). However, some old versions (typically more than 2+ years old) may not support this feature. If so, please update your browser to a more recent version.
The Sage AI Transform process will then open. The first step is to provide Sage with content and select your output and options.
Content. The Sage AI requires content to transform. Initially, this is limited to plain text. Creators should simply paste in the plain text. More options for content will be added soon.
NOTE: The quality of the content created by the Sage AI will be heavily dependent on the quality of content provided to it. If you only provide limited content (<200 characters) or poor quality / repetitive content, then the AI may struggle to generate high quality content. Limited or poor quality content will also increase the chances of AI hallucination.
Output. Creators then need to select the required output. Initially, this is limited to quizzes. More options for output will be added soon.
Options. Once the output is selected, some options may be available for creators to modify the created content. The options vary depending on the selected output (e.g. the number of answers in a quiz).
Once a creator has provided the content and selected the output and options, the creator can select the 'Generate' button to request the output from the AI. Generation will likely take 5-20 seconds depending on complexity.
Once the AI has generated its output, creators will see a preview in the Transform process. Creators can either accept that output (see below), or ask for a regeneration (which takes the same settings and asks the AI to try again - this can be done twice more) or to edit settings (which allows the creator to change the provided content or settings).
NOTE: For large / long content, or complex / long output, the time to generate the output can be 10-20 seconds. Please be patient as the AI reviews and creates your content.
What happens when a creator accepts the provided output?
When the AI output is accepted, the Transform element will close and a new element will be inserted containing the generated output. For example, if a quiz is selected, then when the output is accepted a new Quiz element will be inserted with the question, answers, correct answer choice and feedback all populated with the output content.
At this point, the creator is free to edit the new element and adjust any content as required. Please note, default options will apply to the layout and settings of AI-generated outputs. You can update these in the newly created element as well as add images and audio, when applicable.
What are the limitations of the Sage AI Transform output?
The quality of the generated summary is firstly dependent on the quality and amount of content provided. If your input is limited or poor quality content, it will be hard for the AI to create useful output.
Keep in mind that the AI is not perfect. It is there to assist or accelerate your work. It does not replace the need for human review or consideration! Creators should use Transform to rapidly build content and elements, saving considerable time in the process, but always take time to review and adjust the output as required.
Some selection outputs also require certain content. For example, if a Timeline is selected as the output, then the content needs to contain information based on events/dates. If a Process is selected as the output, then the content needs to represent something which can be completed as steps. Asking for output which does not relate to the nature of the provide content may lead to unpredictable results.
NOTE: Our Support team cannot influence the AI output. If you are not happy with the AI output or it is not able to create the content you want, this isn't something the Support team can fix - we cannot influence individual requests to the AI. If, however, the Sage AI Transform feature is just not working at all or providing output which is not related to your content at all, please contact the Support team with all the information (your provided content and the selected output and options) to see if we can learn more.
NOTE: AI Models are extensively trained on US English language data. As a result, our AI features are purely English language based at this time. In addition, while our prompts request UK English responses, the AI Models often still respond in US English. This process is not within our control so you may need to edit some US to UK English at times.
