Introducing The New Evolve: Completely Rebuilt From The Ground Up

Key takeaways

• Intellum rebuilt Evolve, its course authoring tool, from the ground up instead of patching the previous version.
• Content creators working in the new Evolve get a visual WYSIWYG interface, real-time collaboration with colleagues and reviewers, and a simplified course architecture.
• The rebuild keeps the customization, interactivity, and brand control that Evolve customers already relied on.
• Intellum restructured every course element and learner interaction so AI can read them, a foundation meant to give content teams intelligent templating and real-time insights.
• The new Evolve is available now, and Intellum offers it as a free trial.

For years, instructional designers and content creators have wrestled with outdated tools. Legacy authoring platforms resulted in complex workflows, rigid structures, and steep learning curves. New users often gave up before they even published their first course. Experienced teams found themselves slowed down by the very tools that were supposed to help them move faster.

And when the industry rushed to add artificial intelligence, most platforms tried to bolt it onto existing products. The result? “AI-powered” solutions that didn’t really move the needle.

We knew incremental fixes weren’t enough. To build a platform for the future of learning, we had to start fresh.

Introducing the New Evolve

The new Evolve is a complete rebuild from the ground up. We reimagined the authoring experience with a clean, visual interface, streamlined workflows, and real-time collaboration. We built it because today’s learning teams need speed and simplicity, and tomorrow’s teams need a foundation that’s AI-ready.

With the new Evolve, content creators can:

• Design polished, interactive, and brand-aligned experiences visually
• Collaborate in real time with colleagues and reviewers
• Build and iterate faster, with drastically simplified course architecture
• Prepare for what’s next with a foundation built to leverage artificial intelligence
  
  

We took everything people already love about Evolve—deep customization, rich interactivity, unmatched branding flexibility—and made it even more accessible. (Just look at our G2 reviews to see what customers have always valued most.) At the same time, we created an architecture ready to power the next wave of AI-driven content creation.

What’s Different About the New Evolve?

When we set out to rebuild Evolve, our goal wasn’t to reinvent course creation for its own sake. It was to make life easier for designers, admins, and creators while unlocking entirely new possibilities. The result is a platform that feels familiar, yet transforms what’s possible.

It’s faster, cleaner, and more intuitive.

A drastically simplified architecture and a clean, visual interface mean you can build and iterate quickly without the tool getting in your way. Faster builds. Faster reviews. Faster launches.

It’s everything you loved, reimagined.

Customization, interactivity, and brand control are still here, but with a modern WYSIWYG interface and built-in collaboration. It’s Evolve—just better in every way.

It’s AI-ready from day one.

Unlike platforms that treat AI as an add-on, Evolve is designed with AI in mind. Every course element, every learner interaction is restructured to make it completely accessible and intelligible to AI. This opens the door to smarter workflows, intelligent templating, and real-time insights that will change how teams create content.
