Train with Video. Scale with AI.

It starts with something simple. Someone records a quick walkthrough for a colleague. Someone else shares a screen-recorded explainer. A department makes a five-minute how-to. One video turns into five. Then ten. Then a hundred. Before long, your organization isn’t just using video. It depends on it.
That’s not a fluke. Video works. It sticks. It captures tone, timing, body language, things slide and documents can’t. And it helps people retain what they learned. It keeps things human. Whether it’s a training session, a company announcement, or a professor breaking down a tricky concept. Video pulls people in.
But here’s the problem. Creating good video at scale has always been hard. Until now.

Why Video Training Works and Why People Remember It
There is a specific way we learn, naturally. We watch. We listen. We mimic. We rewind and repeat. Video taps into that. It lets people learn at their own pace, on their own schedule, without needing someone to be in the room.
Video also sticks. Studies show people retain information from video far better than from text or static visuals. There’s emotion, tone, and expression. That makes the message easier to absorb and easier to recall when it matters.
It’s also inclusive. Video lets someone pause, replay, or slow things down. It meets different learning styles without requiring multiple versions of the same content.
That’s why trainers enjoy it. That’s why learners remember it.
The Scaling Challenge: More Demand, Less Time
But here’s the catch. Video creation takes time. Not everyone feels comfortable on camera. Editing is tedious. Distribution can be messy. And once you have hundreds or thousands of videos, managing them becomes a job on its own.
Organizations hit a wall. You either slow down creation or sacrifice quality. Neither option is good.
That is where AI comes in.
AI Does Not Replace People. It Empowers Them.
The point of AI is not to take over. It is to open the door for more people to participate. It removes friction from creating, editing, translating, and sharing video. It gives someone without a production background the ability to make something that looks professional.
With tools like Elai, an AI video creation platform within the Panopto ecosystem, users can turn a script or a slide deck into a fully narrated video. It includes lifelike avatars, accurate translations, and visual enhancements. No camera. No microphone. No editing software needed.
That means people who never felt confident speaking on camera can now bring their ideas to life. People with good content but little time can scale their knowledge. Teams can publish training videos, explainers, onboarding clips, or product demos, all without a studio or editing crew.
It does not just save time. It makes content creation fairer and more accessible.
Panopto: The Backbone for Video Learning
Elai creates video. Panopto powers everything else.
At its core, Panopto is a video management system. But that label does not do it justice. It is more like a home base for every video your organization produces. It handles recording, storage, organization, sharing, search, and security.
Anyone in your organization can record a session, upload a file, or create something with Elai. Panopto ensures it is easy to find, watch, and analyze.
Every video becomes searchable. Every spoken word turns into a transcript. Every click creates data you can learn from.
If Elai unlocks content creation, Panopto ensures that content lives where it can be discovered, used, and valued.

A Creator Friendly, Viewer Smart Ecosystem
Here is what happens when you bring AI video creation together with enterprise video management:
- A new hire creates an onboarding video with Elai using only a slide deck and a short prompt.
- It is uploaded to Panopto, where it is automatically transcribed, captioned, and stored.
- The video is added to a playlist with other onboarding materials.
- HR can see which videos were watched, where viewers dropped off, and which topics may need clarification.
That kind of system does not just store content. It helps you learn from it. It helps you improve.
From Higher Education to Corporate
Panopto is already in use at twenty-one of the world’s top twenty-five universities. Professors record lectures. Students rewatch challenging concepts. Administrators analyze usage data to improve outcomes.
In business, Panopto is the video layer behind onboarding, training, sales enablement, and compliance. Global teams use it to keep consistent messaging across time zones. Field teams access content from anywhere, anytime.
Elai helps those same organizations create more video, faster. Learning and development teams build microlearning. HR teams personalize training. Subject matter experts produce explainers without needing to book a studio.
Practical, not flashy solutions, that deliver real value. They help real teams do more with less friction.
Built for Scale Without the Bloat
Some platforms try to do everything: webinars, meetings, virtual events, video email, video calls. That sounds great until you need to manage all that content. Then it becomes a sprawl of tools with different interfaces, permissions, and workflows.
Panopto is focused. It is a purpose built video learning platform. That makes it better at what learning teams care about most: content discovery, search, LMS integration, engagement data, compliance, and accessibility.
Elai brings that same focus to creation. It is not trying to be a meeting tool. It is designed to make it simple to go from script to finished video in minutes, not hours or days.
When you combine the two, you get something rare: a full video workflow that feels manageable.

Creative Possibility, Not Just Productivity
AI does something people do not talk about enough. It unlocks creativity.
When people are not bogged down in editing or camera setups, they start to experiment. They test new formats. They try storytelling techniques. They create things they never thought they could.
That is what happens when you remove the blockers. The volume of content rises, and so does quality.
With Elai, someone can test several versions of a message, find which one works best, and refine it. With Panopto, that video can be shared instantly, embedded in a course, or sent directly to a team. It is all tracked and secure.
This kind of loop, create, distribute, learn, improve, is how great video programs are built.
From One to Many: Scaling Learning Across the Organization
What begins as one helpful training video can become an entire library of knowledge. A video made for a team in Berlin can help onboard someone in Chicago. A recorded message from your head of sales can shape the next regional playbook.
That is how knowledge becomes scalable. Not by writing longer documents, but by capturing people as they explain, demonstrate, and teach. Then organizing it so others can find it when they need it.
Panopto ensures that what gets created never gets lost. Elai ensures that more people can create in the first place.
That is what it means to scale with AI.
You Are Not Just Training People. You Are Building Culture.
The more video your people see from each other, from leadership, from across teams, the more connected they feel. Video carries voice. It carries tone. It shows faces. That matters.
In a hybrid or global workforce, that is not optional. It is essential. People want to feel connected to what their organization stands for. They want to hear from their leaders, not just read a memo.
Training with video is not only about sharing knowledge. It is about building identity and belonging.
The Future of Learning Is Here and It Is Watchable
You do not need a film degree to make great training content. You do not need a production crew to scale knowledge across continents. What you need is the right mix of tools: ones that make creation possible and management effortless.
That is what Panopto and Elai bring together.
So go ahead. Train with video. Scale with AI. Unlock your team’s knowledge, creativity, and voice at the speed your organization truly moves.
The tools are ready. The future is watchable.
