Arist Build skills and shift behavior at scale, one message at a time.

What is Arist?

Arist provides a platform designed to enhance corporate training effectiveness by leveraging artificial intelligence. It addresses the challenges of traditional e-learning methods by converting existing documents and collateral, potentially thousands of pages, into interactive, bite-sized courses. These courses are delivered directly to employees through familiar messaging applications such as SMS, Slack, Microsoft Teams, and WhatsApp, aiming for high engagement and accessibility without requiring new app installations.

The platform emphasizes continuous enablement and learning within the workflow, typically requiring just five minutes a day from the learner. Arist incorporates robust analytics to track learner progress, identify knowledge gaps in real-time, and measure overall impact on a granular level. It supports over 100 languages, offers integrations with existing HRIS, LMS, and CRM systems like Salesforce and Veeva, and ensures compliance standards like SOC-2, GDPR, and frontline worker wage & hour regulations.
