How does hallucination work with Bonzai?
arrow

Hallucination in AI refers to the generation of content or responses that are incorrect or fabricated. Bonzai AI has integrated measures to reduce hallucination, especially when creating structured learning materials. However, as with any AI system, there’s always a slight possibility of generated content being inaccurate. To address this, we encourage manual review and editing of AI-generated course materials to ensure the highest level of accuracy.

Can I make adjustments to the voices, background sound, speed, etc.?
arrow

Yes, Bonzai AI provides customization options for generated video content. You can adjust the voice, background sound, and speed of the AI-generated video lessons. Depending on the plan you are subscribed to, you also have access to additional tools for further customization, such as using your own voice for voiceovers and more advanced editing options.

  • Smart Translation: Translate entire courses into other languages quickly and easily, with the cost being the same as for the original course creation.

How Can I Personalize Content for Specific Audiences?
arrow

With Bonzai Course Creator, AI enables you to personalize content for different audiences in just a few minutes using the Target Audience feature. Simply specify your audience, and the AI will adjust the content’s language, tone, and structure to fit their needs, making your courses more relevant and engaging.

What are Voiceovers in Bonzai Course Creator?
arrow

Voiceovers in Bonzai Course Creator are AI-generated narrations added to your video content to enhance the learning experience. When creating lessons or videos, Bonzai AI allows you to select from various voice options, including different accents, genders, and tones, to match your course's style and audience.

The voiceovers are professionally synthesized, and you can adjust elements like speed, pitch, and background sound to further personalize the narration. Whether you're using a standard video or a Digital Twin video, the AI-generated voiceover ensures smooth, natural-sounding narration without the need for you to record your own voice.

What are Technical Videos?
arrow

Technical Videos in Bonzai Course Creator are step-by-step guided videos that combine text, highlights, and voiceover to create an interactive user experience. These videos are generated from simple screen recordings that clients upload to Bonzai AI for processing. Clients only need to record their screen while clicking through the steps—no need to record their voice or face.

Bonzai AI processes the video, adding professional voiceovers and visual highlights to guide viewers through the steps. This format is ideal for creating tutorials, software demonstrations, or technical walkthroughs. Due to the additional processing involved, Technical Videos cost 15 credits per lesson.

What are Digital Twins, and how do they differ from regular videos?
arrow

Digital Twins in Bonzai Course Creator are AI-generated avatars that closely mimic a real person’s appearance, voice, and movements. These personalized avatars are designed to represent instructors, trainers, or other figures, providing a highly realistic and interactive learning experience.

Here’s how Digital Twins differ from regular videos:

  • Personalization: Digital Twins are created using specific details provided by the client, such as appearance, voice, and gestures. They offer a unique, personalized avatar that can replicate real-life instructors or company representatives, providing a more immersive learning experience.
  • Advanced AI Technology: Digital Twins leverage advanced AI algorithms to create lifelike avatars that can engage learners at a deeper level. These avatars can speak, demonstrate, and guide learners through content just like a real instructor would.
  • Regular Videos: Standard videos, on the other hand, are pre-recorded or AI-generated instructional videos without personalized features. These videos still include high-quality visuals and voiceovers but lack the specific customization and realism provided by Digital Twins.
  • Usage: While regular videos are sufficient for general course content, Digital Twins are ideal for organizations that want to create a closer connection with learners or deliver personalized, high-impact training using AI-replicated human interactions.

In terms of credit consumption, creating a lesson with a Digital Twin video uses 15 credits per lesson, while a standard video uses 10 credits.

How Does SCORM Compliance Work?
arrow

Courses created using Bonzai Course Creator are fully SCORM-compliant. This means that once you’ve generated a course, it can be exported and used in any SCORM-compatible Learning Management System (LMS). This ensures you can distribute your courses across various platforms while maintaining tracking and progress data for learners.

  • Technical/Digital Twin Video Lessons: 15 credits per lesson (includes 2-5 minute video with advanced features).
  • Smart Translation: Translating an entire course into another language costs the same number of credits as the original course creation.

Credits help you manage resource usage effectively, ensuring you only consume what is necessary based on your project’s requirements.
