P company, has announced an expansion of its AI-supported learning capabilities, introducing new product features that improve the learner experience and create a more equitable learning environment for users across the globe.

Enhancements to Iris, Pluralsight’ s AI learning assistant and new AI-driven translations change how professionals learn, engage and master critical technology skills by delivering personalisation, efficiency and accessibility for learners worldwide.
“ Our latest platform enhancements showcase how powerful human-led instruction can be when coupled with AI-assisted learning technologies,” said Erin Gajdalo, Chief Executive Officer at Pluralsight.“ This is truly human-centric design. We believe modern learning platforms must go beyond content delivery and incorporate dynamic features that empower more learners to stay engaged, learn faster and truly master high-demand skills. That’ s what learners will find in our latest updates.”
AI translations of expert-led content expand access for global learners
For Spanish, German and French learners, the platform now offers AIpowered translations with natural-sounding audio in the voice of the original course author, allowing learners to hear content in their own language while maintaining the authenticity of expert instruction. Learners can seamlessly switch between languages without restarting the course. The translation engine adapts not just words but tone, cadence and cultural inflections to preserve the integrity of instruction while increasing the approachability of course content for global users. AI-driven lip sync and localised closed captions further enhance comprehension and accessibility.
“ These translation capabilities remove a major barrier for the millions of learners who aren’ t native English speakers,” said Chris Herbert, Chief Content Officer at Pluralsight.“ By delivering audio in the author’ s real voice and culturally aligned translations, we’ re making high-quality tech education more inclusive, accessible and effective around the world.”
Iris delivers more intelligent, adaptive learning
Learners can more actively engage in course content with expanded‘ just-in-time’ knowledge checks that help build confidence in applying foundational knowledge.
Available through Iris across 3,000 courses, these integrated checks enable users to validate their understanding at the moment concepts are introduced. This enhancement ensures:
• Immediate feedback and course correction: Learners can identify and close knowledge caps before moving forward in the course.
• Maximised learning efficiency: Learners can focus their efforts where it matters most, on concepts they may struggle with.
• Increased retention and skill mastery: Learners can stay actively engaged in the course, ensuring long-term retention and success. Iris also now includes the‘ ask this video’ feature, a new experience that allows learners to ask questions about any video segment and receive accurate, transcript-sourced answers aligned with the author’ s instruction. Powered by retrieval-augmented generation( RAG) and available across all courses, this feature:
• Guarantees accuracy and alignment with course content
• Personalises learning flows with context-aware suggestions
• Saves time and reduces friction, enabling instant access to course insights.
These new capabilities are available now across Pluralsight’ s library, with additional course coverage and expanded language support planned throughout 2026.
