The science behind Ellie
We're on a mission to prove training ROI through measurable understanding. Ellie is built on cognitive science principles by Ph.D. experts who understand how learning actually works.
Our mission
To transform training from a cost center into a measurable business driver. Ellie helps L&D teams prove ROI by measuring actual understanding, not just completion rates.
The Ellie advantage
A world where anyone can build quality training in minutes, where understanding is measured not guessed, and where learning happens in the flow of daily work through intelligent conversation.
Cognitive science foundation
Built by Ph.D. experts using proven cognitive science principles, Ellie understands how humans actually learn and retain information.
Multi-agent intelligence
Our sophisticated multi-agent AI model adapts to individual learning styles, providing personalized experiences that evolve with each interaction.
Measurable understanding
Unlike traditional training that measures clicks, Ellie's proprietary algorithms measure actual comprehension and knowledge retention.
Real-world impact
We're committed to delivering quantifiable results that matter - measurable learning outcomes and proven ROI for organizations.
Beyond completion rates: measuring what matters
We believe L&D teams shouldn't be cost centers. With Ellie's understanding measurement, you can finally prove training ROI and show real business impact. No more guessing – know exactly what your employees understand.
The Kirkpatrick model & Ellie: a perfect match
Ellie directly addresses the Kirkpatrick model's biggest challenge while enabling measurement at all four levels - transforming training from a cost center into a measurable business driver.
The Kirkpatrick challenge
The Kirkpatrick model evaluates training effectiveness across four levels, but most organizations get stuck at Level 1. They measure completion rates, satisfaction surveys, and test scores - but have no idea if real learning occurred or if it translates to performance improvement.
How Ellie transforms each level
Reaction
Post-training satisfaction surveys and completion rates
Real-time engagement through natural conversation and meaningful dialogue
Learning
Test scores and completion rates as crude proxies for learning
Proprietary algorithm measures actual understanding through conversational assessment
Behavior
One-and-done training that's 90% forgotten within a month
Ongoing reinforcement conversations that bridge training to real application
Results
Hope correlation implies causation with business outcomes
Clear connections between verified learning and measurable business results
