Your org rolled out a major AI tool to everyone.
Usage is… let’s call it “optional” 😬
That’s an AI adoption gap. And in 2027, closing it is L&D’s move to make.
In Session 2 of From Grind to Growth, we’re taking a real AI adoption gap and turning it into a full multi-format learning experience, built live across Copilot, Powtoon and Articulate.

Which format fits which learner. How the content is structured. What ships and what gets sent back.
Joining us live: 2027 AI in L&D Trends Report co-authors Jonathan Hill and Tanya Andrassy Beniquez, two people who’ve spent their careers making sure learning actually lands, will discuss what that looks like when agents are doing the heavy lifting.

If anyone can build training now, why does your org still need L&D? 🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄
Session 1 co-host and report co-author Tanya Andrassy Beniquez answers with Trend 2 from Powtoon’s 2027 AI in L&D trends report, “Everyone Creates, L&D Curates”, featuring a quote by Nick Elkins of Johnson & Johnson. Watch for a hint of her secret sauce to future-proof your L&D and comms next year.
Nick’s quote is one of many community voices behind the report, which is built from 1,000+ real L&D conversations, analyzed by Tanya, Jonathan Hill, Megan Torrance, Sean McPheat and our very own Lynn Aviv Pinhas.
Up next, 4 more trends and actionable workflows drop live in Session 2 on Nov 18. RSVP now, seats are limited 👉 powtoon.com/w/webinars/2027-…

New 🚨 Connect Powtoon’s MCP to the AI tools you already work in, like Claude, Copilot or ChatGPT. Now you can build engaging training and comms fast, minus the app hopping. Watch 3 demos that show how it’s done, while putting some of the biggest rising L&D trends for 2027 to work:
▶️ Demo 1: Connect and prompt
In this demo, you’ll see the Powtoon MCP connected in Claude, and one prompt kick off a full training video. This reflects a rising L&D trend called Environments Eat Tools, which means in 2027 you’ll stop juggling tools and start working in one connected environment where your tools talk to each other.
▶️ Demo 2: Your expertise in, quality learning out
In this demo, you’ll see the AI ask the right questions first, then you approve the script and quizzes before anything is generated. This reflects a rising L&D trend called Everyone Creates, L&D Curates, which means in 2027 anyone can create content, but you’ll be the one making the learning calls that turn it into real learning.
▶️ Demo 3: Complex made clear and accurate
In this demo, you’ll see ClarityGen turn a complex product mechanism into clear, accurate visuals sales teams can actually remember. This reflects a rising L&D trend called Accurate by Design, which means in 2027 you’ll be able to show complex processes with real precision, without an agency or long production cycles.
Running it all end to end? That’s the AI Proficiency you’ll need to future-proof your career.

Report co-author Jonathan Hill opened our “From Grind to Growth” Webinar Series with it: 2027 isn’t about using fewer tools. It’s about choosing smarter ones that play together.
It’s a shift L&D teams are already feeling, and one that L&D pros like Starlet Franz, one of the community voices featured in the report, captures perfectly in her quote.

AI is after your job.
It will replace some L&D folks.
𝗕𝗨𝗧 𝗡𝗢𝗧 𝘆𝗼𝘂.
Here’s what you need know 👇
AI now does what used to be owned by instructional designers alone: curating learning, generating modules, scripts, storyboards, authoring learning content, restructuring into videos and presentations.
Everyone can create content. But not everyone has the judgment to decide if the output is S#%T, needs to be regenerated or has the potential to make an impact with some fine tuning and your instructional eye.
Some orgs will risk it.
Their business results will show it.
That’s where you come in:
Your call on what ships.
Your expertise on what the guardrails are.
The L&D pros winning in 2027 rule AI.
They don’t let it rule them (or their outcomes).
They will adopt AI that respects their expertise and make the org see it.
They will get more out of it. Stopping the grind and the tool sprawl.
Working in environments they build and orchestrate.
And have these environments work for them.
They will become the training authority in the org.
They’ll grow instead of being reduced to “AI button pushers.”
That’s what this year’s L&D trends are about.
And we’re not stopping at predictions.
In our From Grind to Growth webinar series we reveal 12 trends AND we will also show you how to own them, with live workflows spanning Claude, Articulate, Powtoon and Copilot.
Join to get practical tips on how to future-proof your L&D and win back authority with measurable outcomes.
Attendees will also unlock Powtoon’s 2027 AI in L&D actionable trends report co-authored with Megan Torrance, Sean McPheat, Jonathan Hill & Tanya Andrassy Beniquez - and get the chance for limited beta access to the tools presented.

No doc? no problem 😎
You already know you can turn doc into a training or comms video inside Powtoon.
But sometimes there's no doc. Just an idea and a deadline.
In Anything to Video, a single prompt can also get you to finished video, in whatever style the message needs:
🎥 Footage-based
🧑💼 Avatar video
📊 Dynamic presentation
✏️ And yes, also animated explainer (like this one)
One idea, four ways to tell it.

The quote from the animation studio: 6 weeks.
The actual time to build it in Powtoon: one coffee. ☕
1️⃣ Drop in a doc, deck, URL or prompt.
2️⃣ Anything to Video animates it, with characters wearing your brand colors, uniforms and props.
3️⃣ Go get a second coffee. ☕
