Changelog

A running record of launches, quality-of-life improvements, and product updates across Skillsail.

August 7, 2026

Review comments for shared modules

Public modules can now collect review comments directly on individual slides. Reviewers can join with a display name, leave threaded feedback, edit or delete their own comments, and follow resolved discussions without creating an account. Authors can reply, resolve or reopen threads, and keep the full comment history even when comments are turned off or a slide is deleted.

Turn comments on or off in the module's share settings. The Skillsail assistant and connected MCP assistants can also read feedback, reply in the module owner's name, resolve or reopen threads, and update visibility, template status, passphrase removal, and comment collection together in one confirmed sharing change. See Sharing and templates and What the assistant can do for the complete workflow.

Microsoft Teams: chat with your assistant in Teams

The Skillsail assistant is now available in Microsoft Teams. Send it a personal message, or mention @Skillsail in a team channel and it replies in a thread on your message. Connect your account from Settings → Agent channels with a one-click link that prefills the connect message in Teams — see Use Skillsail in Microsoft Teams to get started.

More flexible visual slides

Slides can now combine up to four generated images in responsive stacked, split, or gallery layouts. Learners can select any slide image to open a larger view, and the same layouts are available through the Skillsail assistant and connected MCP assistants.

PowerPoint imports now build learner-ready modules

Skillsail can now inspect and import selected slides or ranges from an uploaded .pptx without loading the entire presentation at once. By default, the assistant turns the source ideas into concise, learner-focused course slides while preserving important facts, figures, quotations, and compliance language. You can ask for a close transcription when exact wording matters.

• Work with a whole deck, a range, or specific slide numbers, including large presentations processed in safe batches
• Use slide text and speaker notes, and reuse a suitable directly embedded image from each source slide
• Retry an interrupted import without duplicating the same course slides or repeating the same visual-analysis charge

The import rebuilds the material as an e-learning course; it does not reproduce PowerPoint animations, charts, SmartArt, vector artwork, master slides, backgrounds, or the complete visual composition. See Turn a PowerPoint into a module for the workflow and current limits.

Slack: chat with your assistant where your team works

The Skillsail assistant is now available in Slack. Message it in a DM, or invite it to a channel and mention it when you need it — the standout feature is threads: mention @Skillsail mid-discussion and it reads the thread's earlier replies before answering, so your team can talk through a process and then say "turn this into a training module" without repeating anything. Add the app to your workspace and connect your account, both from Settings → Agent channels — see Use Skillsail in Slack to get started.

Chat with your Skillsail assistant in Telegram

You can now connect your Telegram account to Skillsail and talk to your course assistant straight from your phone — create modules, edit slides, translate content, or send a photo or PDF to work into a course. Connect in Settings → Agent channels with a one-tap link, and add the bot to team group chats where it responds when mentioned. See Use Skillsail in Telegram to get started. Slack and Microsoft Teams support is on the way.

xAPI, cmi5, and standalone HTML5 export

Modules can now be exported as xAPI ("Tin Can") and cmi5 packages, alongside the existing SCORM 1.2 and SCORM 2004 formats. Choose the standard in the publish dialog or when starting a new module — the exported package tracks completion, scores, and resume position through your LMS or Learning Record Store.

• xAPI packages send learner statements (attempted, passed, failed, completed) to your LRS and support bookmarking, so learners resume where they left off
• cmi5 packages follow the modern successor to SCORM, including launch-mode handling and mastery-score criteria from your module's completion settings
• Works with SCORM Cloud and any xAPI- or cmi5-conformant LMS

There is also a new standalone HTML5 export for teams without an LMS: a self-contained web package you can host on any web server. Learner progress — bookmark, quiz score, and completion — is stored in the learner's browser, so people still resume where they left off.

Billing controls on the usage page

Usage & Billing now brings plan status, shared monthly credits, plan options, billing settings, and recent usage into one place.

Free organizations can choose Plus or Pro from the page. Paid organizations can switch between Plus and Pro, see when the current plan renews or ends, and keep the current plan when a scheduled change can be canceled.

Self-service organization deletion

Organization admins can now delete their Skillsail organization from Settings. See Deleting an organization for what is removed and how billing is handled.

Expanded docs for course authors

The Skillsail docs now cover the parts of the product that come up most often when you are building a module. New sections:

• Concepts — modules and components, languages and translation, themes and completion, resources and media, sharing and templates, and saved versions.
• AI assistants (MCP) — connect an outside AI assistant to your Skillsail workspace, a plain-language list of everything the assistant can do, and recipes for common authoring jobs.

The pages are written for course authors and trainers — the people actually building modules.

Skillsail AI assistant documentation

Skillsail now has public documentation for connecting MCP-compatible AI assistants to your Skillsail workspace.

The guide explains how to connect an assistant, what kinds of training tasks it can help with, and what to check before publishing or sharing AI-assisted changes.

• New guide: /docs/mcp/overview
• Covers training creation, content updates, publishing, templates, resources, exports, and version restore
• Written for Skillsail users and workspace admins, with a focus on day-to-day authoring tasks

More free-form learning content

Skillsail can now create more open-ended learning experiences alongside the slide and question formats you already use. When a standard slide is not the right fit, you can ask for a learning game, branching scenario, checklist, decision exercise, flash-card activity, simulation-style practice, or another custom learning moment.

This gives you more room to describe the outcome you want instead of choosing a predefined template first. For example, you can ask Skillsail to create a quick phishing detection game, a safety decision tree, or a product knowledge practice activity, and Skillsail will build a self-contained experience for the module.

• Best for practice moments, guided exploration, lightweight games, scenarios, and custom exercises
• Works alongside existing slides, questions, media, translations, sharing, and exports
• Designed to give authors more creative freedom without needing to write code

Credit usage is now tracked

Skillsail now tracks credit usage for AI features. Signed-in users can review their organization's monthly usage from Usage & Billing in the account menu or at skillsail.com/usage. For current allowances, usage examples, and billing details, see Credits and Usage.
