Getting Started
This guide will walk you through creating your first learning experience with Impact. In just a few minutes, you'll have professional learning content ready to share.
Step 1: Start a New Project
When you open Impact, you'll see the welcome screen with template options. You can either:
- Choose a template — Select from Assessment, Scenario Training, Gamified Learning, or other starters
- Start from scratch — Type your own prompt describing what you want to create
Step 2: Describe Your Learning Experience
In the chat input, describe what you want to create. Be specific about:
- Topic — What subject matter should the content cover?
- Audience — Who will be learning this content?
- Learning objectives — What should learners be able to do afterward?
- Format — Scenario, assessment, gamified experience, role-play?
- Style — Formal, casual, technical, beginner-friendly?
Example Prompts
Here are some prompts to get you started:
Build a scenario-based training for handling customer complaints.
Include branching paths based on the learner's choices and feedback
on their decisions.Design a gamified onboarding experience for new sales team members.
Include points, badges, and a leaderboard to track progress.Create an assessment tool for testing cybersecurity awareness
with multiple question types and detailed feedback.Build a role-play simulation for practicing difficult conversations
with employees, including realistic dialogue options.Step 3: Add Source Materials (Optional)
Enhance your content by uploading reference materials. Impact can use these to inform the generated content:

Tip: Upload existing training materials, brand guidelines, or reference documents — Impact will incorporate the information into your learning content.
Step 4: Watch the Live Preview
As Impact generates your content, you'll see it appear in real-time in the preview panel on the right side of the screen. The preview shows:
- Your learning content as learners will experience it
- Interactive elements you can test
- Progress tracking and navigation

Step 5: Iterate and Refine
Not quite right? Simply ask for changes:
- "Make the introduction more engaging"
- "Add more interactive elements to lesson 3"
- "Include a knowledge check after each section"

- "Change the theme to be more playful"
Impact remembers your conversation context, so you can refine incrementally.
