Frequently asked questions about Eggheads
What is eggheads?
Eggheads is a leading AI-driven microlearning platform that empowers you to easily create, share and analyze engaging, chat-based learning nuggets that make knowledge retention a breeze. You can craft these nuggets manually or use AI-assisted tools for a quick first draft. It is also described as a nanolearning platform, LCMS (Learning Content Management System), and chatbot tool focused on informing, educating and engaging users.
Is eggheads a traditional LMS?
No, eggheads is not a traditional Learning Management System (LMS) in the sense that it allows you to host and administrate your learning content library and users. However, eggheads does offer some LMS-like features such as content creation, user management, sharing functionalities and analytics. It can be integrated with existing LMS platforms.
How long does each learning interaction last?
The ideal length of a chat interaction has proven to be about one to two minutes. The egghead notifies employees about basic knowledge around 20 times, with each interaction lasting 1-2 minutes. These regular prompts prevent information overload that often occurs during long training sessions.
Can I create content without professional assistance?
Yes, not at all. With eggheads' user-friendly and lightweight content creation tool (authoring tool), anyone can effortlessly craft chat-based learning nuggets without seeking professional assistance. You don't need designers or an agency to produce conversational micro-content that educates and captivates your audience.
What languages does eggheads support?
Egghead currently provides important content in German and English. Other languages are available on request. The egghead answers employee questions in the user's language, and the AI can translate chat-based tutorials, quizzes, and surveys on the spot into the languages your participants speak.
How do employees access the egghead?
Employees can interact with the egghead in two ways: Via the egghead Microsoft Teams app directly in Microsoft Teams, providing the simplest and most frictionless option, or via a link in any web browser or existing channels, allowing seamless integration with your current LMS/LXP or intranet. Each chat-based learning nugget comes with a unique link that can be shared through Email, Messenger Apps, Social Media, or turned into a QR code.

Can I upload my own documents for the egghead to use?

What ready-for-use digital assistants are available?
