Short answer

How can I use AI to manage my Udemy course discussions?

Your AI pulls the latest questions from your course boards and drafts replies based on your course content. You stay in control by reviewing every response before it goes live. This keeps your engagement high without the manual typing.

The outcomes.

Where your responses land.

The AI organizes student interactions into these four outcomes.

CONTEXT

Deep dives
