Bringing AI-augmented learning to your cyber journey

Master complex skills faster with a range of AI-augmented learning tools built directly into your learning journey.

You know the feeling. You are deep into a module, and you hit a concept that just will not click. Maybe the documentation feels like it was written on a different planet, or you are missing one small piece of context for an exploit to work. At Hack The Box (HTB), we know that hands-on learning should be about persistence, not about banging your head against a desk.

That is why we are launching two major AI-powered features to support your learning: HTB Coach and multilingual translation. Together, these tools are built to help you get unstuck, move faster, and study in the language you know best. 

Meet your new companion: HTB Coach (Beta)

HTB Coach is our AI companion built to help you master complex cybersecurity topics through clear technical explanations, content summaries, and contextual quizzes. It knows exactly which section you are working on and gives you the technical clarity you need to finish the job.

 

Break the language barrier with our AI-powered language selector

We know that cybersecurity is hard, and learning it in your second or third language can be a massive hurdle. To solve this, we are launching an AI-powered translation feature.

You can now translate Academy modules into major languages like Hindi, Arabic, Spanish, French, Chinese, Greek, and Japanese. We have built this with technical exclusion rules, meaning your commands, URLs, and code blocks stay in English. This ensures you understand the theory in your native tongue while keeping the experience functional and aligned with global industry standards.

Leveling up your skills at light speed

We built these tools to kill the friction that leads to learning burnout. Here is how they help you move at high velocity:

  • Real-time technical coaching. Get high-precision explanations of theories and techniques based on the specific section you are reading with HTB Coach. You’ll also be able to test your knowledge with contextual quizzes.

  • Context-aware translation. Read the theory in your native language while keeping technical syntax in English, so your labs never break.

  • Cut the noise. Use the HTB Coach to generate one-click summaries for quick reviews so you can stay focused on the parts that matter most.

  • Frictionless experience. Stop jumping to external tools when a module feels heavy. Get the why and how explained without ever leaving the platform.

Starting today, HTB Coach (Beta) is available on all HTB Academy learning content and will soon also be available for HTB Enterprise users.

Building a job-ready workforce

For organizations and SOC managers, AI-augmented learning acts as a force multiplier for team development, providing every learner with on-demand support and enabling global teams to onboard diverse talent faster.

  • Accelerate time to job readiness by reducing learning blockers

  • Ensure you can report back true knowledge retention with AI-generated quizzes and summaries

  • Scale training support without increasing manager overhead

FAQ: Frequently Asked Questions

 

Is my data private and secure?

We take your privacy seriously and handle all interactions within our secure infrastructure. To ensure we are providing the most accurate and helpful technical guidance, data processed by HTB Coach may be used to train and improve our underlying models. This allows the HTB Coach to learn and provide better support as the platform evolves. Learn more about how we process your data here.

What if my team or I share sensitive or confidential data? 

We recommend that users and organizations avoid inputting highly sensitive, proprietary, or confidential data (such as specific internal network configurations or private keys) into the chat. While we handle all data within a secure environment, the primary purpose of the HTB Coach is to assist with Academy content. For enterprise teams, we suggest establishing clear guidelines for your learners to ensure interactions remain focused on the training material provided. Also, admins on the HTB Enterprise Platform can choose to enable or disable HTB Coach for their entire organization at any time. This allows companies to ensure that the use of AI tools within their training programs strictly follows their internal security and data governance policies.

How does HTB Coach differ from a generic AI assistant?

Unlike a standard chatbot, HTB Coach is built with deep cybersecurity context. It is aware of the specific HTB Academy module you are currently studying. This allows it to provide nuanced, technically accurate explanations that generic tools often miss or "hallucinate" on.

Who has access to these features?

During the Beta period, all HTB Academy and HTB Enterprise users will have full access to HTB Coach and multilingual translation. We want as many users as possible to test these tools and provide feedback to help us refine the experience.

The start of a new era of learning

This is just the start for AI at HTB. As you grow, so do our tools. We are building a future where AI-augmented learning supports you across your entire cyber journey.
