Structured knowledge interviews using a pre-designed guide, plus recordings made with smart glasses right at the workplace. No more “write everything down”: Experienced employees demonstrate what they do once, and Elephant turns it into a learning module. This ensures that valuable experiential knowledge stays within the company instead of being lost to brain drain.
Turn this into a module for new fitters.
I transcribed the video and found 4 work steps. Here is the course outline.
Interviews and recordings are immediately converted into structured work instructions with timestamps and automatic expiration dates. This allows valuable knowledge to be digitized and permanently stored. No document becomes outdated without being noticed. As a result, even after personnel changes, the documentation of how processes and procedures work remains intact.
Screw tightening torque:
If your SharePoint or Confluence changes, Elephant automatically updates the training content. No manual updates, no outdated documentation. This ensures that relevant knowledge remains available—no loss of knowledge due to outdated or missing information.
From a first-person perspective, employees demonstrate how they actually go about their work right on the job. There’s no need to first describe the steps or reenact them for a camera. This makes even knowledge that’s hard to put into words tangible—without a camera crew.
I cut 4 clips from your video (14:32 min) and added them to the lessons:
Our authoring tool, Ellie, turns interviews, PDFs, and SharePoint documents into interactive courses—in minutes and in 105+ languages. This makes sharing knowledge within the company easier: Anyone can create content on their own and make it available to teams.
While operational staff carry out their workflows, Elephant provides contextual knowledge directly in audio format—hands-free, without a screen, and without interruption. This allows experiential knowledge to be passed on directly—from senior staff to newcomers.
