As our working lives change and turn towards accessible online resources, the demand for video learning platforms has increased. Video learning as a concept is becoming increasingly popular, with studies claiming that it improves people’s ability to remember concepts and details that are often forgotten in lectures, powerpoints and documents. As the demand for video learning continues, companies have begun shifting their focus towards creating specialist video learning tools that offer the same levels of engagement and learning support in accessible, online formats.
But what makes a great learning platform? What key components separate an asynchronous video learning tools, from, say, traditional live virtual training methods through video communication apps such as Zoom, GoToMeeting and Webex?
What are video learning platforms?
Simply put, video learning platforms are interactive online services that provide users with a variety of resources, tools and interactive elements to help further their education on specific subject matters. They can be used to support work and education goals and are helpful for teachers, managers and CEOs, as well as junior employees and students. Let’s face it … YouTube is a good example here.
How StoryTagger’s video learning platform works
Our video learning platform is designed to help users create and share short, focused selfie videos about their work and learning experiences. Your story is broken up into small scenes to create snappy, engaging responses that pinpoint core, interesting elements of your story to make it interesting and useful to viewers. Even if you aren’t a natural storyteller, our video learning tool uses nudges and prompts to ensure you never lose your train of thought and keep a natural narrative flowing. You don’t need to be a master at editing, filmmaking or a gifted storyteller, our app takes care of that for you!
Our video learning app is free to download from both Google Play and the App Store. Book a quick demo or get a free 7-day trial and to find out how StoryTagger can help your organisation.

Why StoryTagger?
Creating unique corporate videos using traditional production methods or software typically takes specialist skills and can cost your business a lot of money. Our video learning app and campaign manager service takes a fraction of the time to create genuinely personal, value-rich video content.

- Uses intelligent face-framing tech that allows space for captions and subtitles
