We did it! We Are Learning named a 2026 Top 20 AI Content Creation & Authoring Tools Company
Training Industry's annual Top 20 lists spotlight the most innovative providers in corporate learning. This year, the AI Content Creation & Authoring Tools list celebrates the platforms helping teams create better learning, faster.

We have some exciting news to share: We Are Learning has been named a 2026 Top 20 AI Content Creation and Authoring Tools Company by Training Industry, Inc., one of the most trusted names in corporate learning and development.
Every year, Training Industry publishes its Top 20 lists to highlight standout providers in the L&D market. These lists help learning leaders find trusted partners. Being included in the AI Content Creation and Authoring Tools list means we are among great peers.
What it takes to make the list
Selections were not given just for participating. Training Industry evaluated each provider on the scope, quality, and depth of their AI authoring capabilities, as well as market presence, brand visibility, innovation, client portfolio, customer relationships, and overall business performance and growth. We are especially proud to have made the list in all these areas.
Why we think we earned it
At We Are Learning, we transform training content into interactive, story-driven experiences led by 3D animated characters. This approach creates learning that people want to complete.
Creators use our authoring tool to build Stories, map out scenes, quizzes, and branching moments, while our AI Script Assistant helps turn rough ideas into polished scripts. Learners then experience these Stories in the Player, featuring animated presenters, lip-sync, and real interaction.
Our approach is based on a simple belief: the best learning happens when human creativity and AI work together, supported by learning theory. This recognition shows that our approach is working.
"I'm incredibly proud of our team and everything we've built together. From the beginning, we've believed AI should empower learning designers, not replace them, making it easier to create immersive learning experiences that have a lasting impact.
This recognition belongs to our team and our customers, who inspire us every day to rethink what's possible in learning. We're excited for what's next."
— Rolf Risnes, CEO, We Are Learning
Training Industry's analysts noted that tools like ours use generative AI, natural language processing, and automation to help teams create high-quality, engaging content quickly and consistently at scale. Solving this challenge has always been our goal.
