EduGen Turns Knowledge Points into Animated Teaching Videos in Minutes

LearnSmart launched EduGen, a platform that generates animated teaching videos complete with narration and subtitles from a short knowledge-point description in about five minutes. It has been piloted in 200 schools.

Education AI company LearnSmart launched its EduGen automated educational video platform on April 30. A teacher simply enters a knowledge-point description — say, "explain the process of photosynthesis" — and EduGen generates a three-to-five-minute teaching video in about five minutes, complete with animated visuals, voice narration, and subtitles.

The generation pipeline works in four stages: AI breaks the knowledge point into teaching steps, creates corresponding animated scenes for each step, synthesizes natural-sounding narration, and finally adds subtitles and interactive quiz questions.

In pilots across 200 schools, 85% of teachers rated EduGen-generated video quality as "acceptable" or "excellent." Students who watched the videos scored an average of 12% higher on knowledge-retention tests compared with traditional board-based instruction.

EduGen's annual school subscription is $2,000 per institution with no limit on video generation. LearnSmart plans to release a free version for individual users by 2031.
