Here's this week's platform update: A quick summary of new features across Data Manager, ibl.ai, and skillsAI, plus a highlight from our ongoing collaborations and reflections on AI's role in education.
Highlighted Features
MCP Analytics MCP
Enable agents to query platform analytics directly through MCP, supporting data-driven conversations around usage, performance, and outcomes.
Search MCP
Allow agents to perform structured searches across indexed content and platform data using MCP, improving retrieval accuracy and contextual responses.
RBAC Enrollment Managers
Grant users the ability to invite and enroll learners into programs and courses without full administrative access.
Learner Management
Control who can view, manage, and organize learners within the platform.
Team Manager
Allow users to create and manage teams they own, including adding and organizing members.
Team Sharing

Bulk Team Management
Efficiently manage large groups of learners and teams through bulk actions and uploads.
Groups
Use Groups to organize users at scale and apply permissions consistently across skillsAI and ibl.ai.
Agent Editor
Assign users the ability to create, edit, and manage agents without granting broader administrative privileges.
Additional Updates
External Credentials
Support external badges and credentials to recognize learning achievements beyond the platform.
Code Interpreter
Students can run Python code, spreadsheets, and more directly in chat to analyze data, generate charts, and explore concepts interactively, without leaving the conversation.
Reflections
Campus leaders share why endless proofs of concept aren't enough — and how avoiding pilot fatigue is key to moving AI strategy into action.
AI equity and infrastructure: building access that supports all learners and ensures institutional AI tools serve the entire campus community.
Students as agents and builders: how role-based access control (RBAC) unlocks secure, scalable participation in AI-powered workflows.
Highlighted Partnerships
We're proud to partner with Union Theological Seminary, advancing a values-driven collaboration that explores how AI can support ethical, mission-aligned learning and teaching. This work centers on empowering faculty and learners with tools that respect community values and foster human-centered inquiry across theological and liberal arts contexts.
