iSpring Suite — What's New
Every month, we add new features and content so you can create more outstanding courses, spend less time on content development, and get better training results.
August 2026
Speed up content creation with AI
Write and refine training content with AI directly in your workflow. Generate text from scratch, rewrite it in a different tone, expand key ideas, summarize long passages, or organize content into clear, structured lists.
Reduce the time spent writing and editing so you can focus on course design, practical activities, and learning quality.
New characters, backgrounds, and templates for training scenarios
July 2026
Create slide courses faster with AI
You can now generate complete slide-based courses from your source materials. Simply enter a topic and, if needed, upload documents, presentations, or training materials. AI will create a course brief, outline, and a first draft for you.
Spend less time building courses from scratch and more time refining content, improving delivery, and creating engaging learning experiences.

June 2026
Text-to-Speech for scrollable courses
You can now easily add audio narration to any page or block in your scrollable courses. Powered by ElevenLabs, the AI-generated narration sounds natural and is created directly from your text — no recording equipment or voiceover artist needed.
Give your learners the flexibility to read at their desk or listen on the go. Transcripts are available in the player, providing built-in accessibility for visually impaired employees.
Available in iSpring Cloud (standalone, as part of Suite AI, and as part of iSpring LMS).
Natural AI voices from ElevenLabs, now in Text-to-Speech
iSpring Suite AI's Text-to-Speech now features voices from ElevenLabs — noticeably more natural and expressive than standard TTS.
Engage your learners with narration that's easy to listen to and helps them remember more without recording equipment or hiring a voiceover artist.
Available on the Suite AI plan.
May 2026
Up to 1.5x faster video course publishing
Spend less time waiting for your courses to publish, especially for video-heavy projects. Our new algorithm uses hardware acceleration to process and publish videos up to 1.5x faster on average.
Republishing after edits is also 20–80% quicker. You’ll save anywhere from a few minutes to an hour per course, getting your updates live faster and keeping your learners moving without delays.
Create ready-to-edit course drafts in minutes with AI Course Creator
Leave the blank page behind. Turn documents, audio files, and prompts into structured course drafts with the help of iSpring Suite AI. Define your audience and learning goals, and AI Course Creator will generate a complete course draft with ready tests and assessments included.
Course creation is now up to 10× faster and takes just three steps:
Step 1. Upload source materials or simply describe what your course should cover in a prompt
Step 2. Get a ready-made structure, lesson text, interactivities, and quizzes
Step 3. Review, refine, and export to SCORM or xAPI for any LMS
Save up to 80% of the time spent on initial draft and focus on what matters most: tailoring content to your learners, adding your expertise, and creating a better learning experience.

December 2025
Reduce course size with built-in image optimization
Image handling in iSpring Suite is now simpler and more predictable. When you publish a course, images are automatically optimized and converted to WebP to reduce the overall course size while preserving visual quality and transparency. This helps courses load faster, stay compatible with modern browsers, and removes the need to manually adjust compression settings for each project.
Create structured layouts faster with alignment guides in Cam Pro
Cam Pro now includes alignment guides that make it easier to position and duplicate shapes with precision. You can align objects to an edge, keep consistent spacing, and build clean lists and layouts without relying on reference shapes or manual adjustments. This update helps keep slides visually structured as your course grows, reducing time otherwise spent on layout fine-tuning.
Build stunning course visuals instantly with AI
You can now create images directly inside the authoring tool by simply describing what you need. AI helps refine your description, generates visuals in different styles, and lets you try multiple variations until the image fits your course. It’s a quick way to visualize scenarios, illustrations, or icons when stock images don’t match your idea. This effectively eliminates the need to use third-party AI generators.

Zoom for PowerPoint
iSpring provides best-in-class conversion technology and we’re continuing to grow. In order to help you streamline navigation in your online courses, we’ve made the Zoom PowerPoint feature accessible in iSpring Suite. Now, you can break out of the linear presenting mode and take control of where you go next. You can easily jump to specific sections or slides in your course, or even create an interactive table of сontents that links to all of the slides in your course.

Control media playback speed
Now, you can accelerate a video to skip through unnecessary information, or slow it down to attract viewers’ attention to important details.
Inserting a freeze frame
When creating a voice over for a video, you may encounter a situation in which the video footage is too short to read the whole script. In such cases, you can easily create a freeze frame to allow enough time to transmit all the necessary information and then continue the video.
Audio and video separation
Previously, when uploading a pre-recorded video to iSpring Suite, it was necessary to work with a single track that included both video and audio. It is now possible to edit video and audio tracks separately.
Automatic audio normalization
Sometimes, you may find that the volume of your voice changes during a voice-over. This may be due to a low-quality microphone or imperfect acoustics. iSpring Suite automatically normalizes the recording so you don’t have to do it manually.
Audio recording from a mic
With iSpring’s Narration Editor, you can cut out a poor voice-over and record an improved version on the spot using your mic.
Auto noise removal when recording audio
iSpring Suite automatically reduces background noise, making your voice louder and clearer.

Ignore hidden slides in course completion stats
Before, if you had hidden slides in your course, the LMS would process them as a part of your course. Therefore, users could never get 100% completion, because they couldn’t see those hidden slides. We’ve fixed that. Now, hidden slides won’t distort your learners’ results.
A course can be saved as a zip file
If you want to create a backup copy of your project or quickly send it to a colleague, simply save your course as a zip file. An archive file takes up less computer space and can be sent by email.
Preserving animations for SmartArt figures after publishing
iSpring offers best-in-class conversion technology, and we keep developing it.

SmartArt animations now work perfectly!

Added feedback for partially correct answers
You can give feedback for partially correct answers. This can be especially useful if, for example, a learner is very close to a correct answer and you want to give them a hint.

Inserting audio in feedback in Slide view mode
Adding audio to feedback is now possible in the Slide view mode. So if while designing a question you feel that it needs audio feedback, you can record it on the spot without going back to question editing.

New Process interaction
This interaction will be of help if you create e-courses on industrial processes and safety. For instance, you can show how part cutting or raw material processing is performed.
