TL;DR

LearnWorlds Automations let you set up step-by-step training journeys that run automatically, so learners get timely guidance, teams reduce routine follow-up, and training stays on track without stitching together extra tools.

Automatically guide learners from signup to completion with multi-step journeys

Trigger messages and actions based on what learners do (or don’t do)

Keep training on track with timely reminders and smart follow-ups

Manage journey logic, emails, mobile reminders, and learner follow-ups in one place

Best for:
Teams that want to onboard, train, and support learners at scale, without spending hours chasing progress or managing every follow-up manually.

Equip your academy with intelligent automation

Free up your team’s bandwidth

Design onboarding and activation journeys once, from signup to first success, and let them run. Workflow automations handle follow-ups, nudges, and next steps so customers and partners keep moving without manual chasing.

Guide every learner to value faster

Track where customers, partners, or client teams are in their journey and trigger the right action based on their behavior via personalized automation. No one gets stuck, and you reach adoption milestones faster.

Stay relevant at every stage of adoption

Journeys adapt dynamically. Whether a learner completes early or goes quiet, the right response fires automatically, keeping onboarding, activation, and ongoing engagement on track without extra effort.

AI drafts it. You perfect it.

Let AI draft your first journey 

Describe your goal in plain language—”re-engage learners who haven’t logged in for 2 weeks” or “onboard new B2B clients in 5 steps”—and AI builds the sequence for you. No blank canvas, no guesswork.

Make it yours with drag-and-drop

Once the draft is ready, take full control. Drag in new steps, reorder actions, adjust time delays, and fine-tune branch conditions—all in a visual builder that anyone on your team can use.

Personalize every detail

Tweak messaging, timing, and logic to match your audience, your brand, and your training goals with AI automation. Every journey that AI drafts is a starting point, not a finished product.
