Operating worldwide 2BeLive faced a challenge with onboarding new educational providers - many of them still rely on old course materials - PDFs, DOC files and PowerPoint slides - which are difficult to digitize and require tons of manual work to create a single course.
Manual recreation of their courses into a new, digital format was hard, time-consuming, and frustrating of course providers, so 2BeLive partnered with Outter to streamline course creation with AI.
Tasks:
- Automate the transformation of legacy curriculum intro structured digital courses
- Process old (pdf, presentation, documents) content into engaging lessons
- Scale content digitalization across thousands of educators and institutions
The Challenge
Digital Course Creation was time-consuming, mostly manual, and frustrating for educator. Additionally, each 'copy-paste' operation required manual review for mistakes and correction, because of the nature of 'legacy' content - old PDFs, presentation and purely formatted DOC files.
Each course digitizing was at least a week of routine:
- Analyzing hundreds and thousands of pages of lecture note, textbooks, slides and articles, usually stuck in PDFs, DOC files and old PowerPOint presentations
- Educators had to manually extract headings, topics, lessons breakdown and put it into 2BeLive's LMS
- Various formats (textbooks, plain text, slide-decks) slowed down the process even more, requiring 100% manual recreating the lessons
All these caused unnecessary frustration from educators, slowed down their onboarding onto 2BeLive Platform and costed both sides tens of thousands dollars every months .
2BeLive needed an reliable automatic solution to streamline content digitalization - a user friendly tool which can help decrease the amount of manual work needed for educators to start earning from their courses.
The Solution
2BeLive partnered with Outter to streamline content digitalization, utilizing Outter's Content Transformation AI Module - a LLM-powered document processing pipeline that automatically converts any type of legacy content into structured digital courses.
AI-Powered Content Transformation
