New platform Study Space taps artificial intelligence to turn any document into an immersive course

Study Space, a new learning platform backed by a team from top universities, has launched, claiming to turn any document or link into an immersive, multimodal course complete with slides, voice narration and animations.

Powered by artificial intelligence (AI), Study Space breaks down complex information into digestible, engaging formats and says users do not require any expertise or prior experience. 

The generated courses are said to be delivered with rhythm, emotion and personality and can be tailored to each individual user’s long-term goals and study preferences. 

Study Space says the platform can be used to create structured learning experiences or can even assist with spontaneous exploration of trending topics by breaking down complex information into digestible, engaging formats. 

Users following the courses created by Study Space can also follow along with the original content used to create the course, retaining key details and reinforcing understanding.

Study Space’s founding team includes members from universities including Oxford, Columbia and the National University of Singapore (NUS) who say they are committed to building inclusive and accessible learning environments using cutting-edge AI technologies. 

The news comes shortly after Knowunity, a German EdTech startup that has developed an AI powered learning platform for students, announced that it raised €27 million in a Series B round to develop its offering, hire talent, and expand into new markets, particularly the US and Asia.
