The collaboration is set to highlight "superior" levels of scalability, performance, and control for XR ready businesses
Digital Work Instructions don’t just replace paper manuals, they fundamentally change how people learn, perform, and retain critical skills in complex industrial environments.
Here’s how.
1. Training Becomes Self-Paced Without Slowing Operations
Traditional training pulls experts off the line and forces learners into fixed schedules.
AI -powered, work instructions allow frontline workers to:
- Learn at their own pace
- Revisit steps as often as needed
- Progress without waiting for an instructor
Outcome: Faster onboarding without disrupting production or overloading subject-matter experts.

We’re already demonstrating the effectiveness of Manifest in enhancing accuracy, consistency, and operational efficiency for clients including British Airways and the U.S. Army, Navy, and Airforce, and Hololight will take us to the next level with customers like these.
The Hololgiht streaming integration aims to boost workers’ accessibility to AR instructional tools regardless of their location and bandwidth.
Florian Haspinger, CEO of Hololight, also added:
2. Learning Becomes Hands-On From Day One
Instead of classroom-first, work instructions enable learning by doing.
- Step-by-step guidance appears directly in the workflow
- Visual cues (video, images, 3D models) reduce ambiguity
- Workers perform real tasks with real tools not simulations
Outcome: Higher confidence earlier, fewer mistakes, and quicker time-to-competence.
3. Multimodal Content Improves Comprehension and Retention
Paper manuals assume everyone learns best by reading. Reality says otherwise.
Digital work instructions combine:
- Short videos
- Images and diagrams
- Audio prompts
- Minimal, contextual text
This reduces cognitive load and aligns with how the brain processes complex physical tasks.
Outcome: Better understanding the first time and less retraining later.
4. Knowledge Shifts From “Memorize” to “Just-in-Time”
AI -powered, work instructions replace the unrealistic expectation that workers must remember everything.
Instead:
- Knowledge is available exactly when it’s needed
- Training continues on the job, not just during onboarding
- Learning becomes continuous, not episodic
Outcome: Fewer errors under pressure and greater adaptability as processes change.
5. Training Quality Becomes Scalable and Consistent
In paper-based training, outcomes vary by instructor, shift, or site.
Digital work instructions:
- Capture the gold-standard process once
- Deliver it identically across teams, plants, and geographies
- Eliminate reliance on tribal knowledge
Outcome: Consistent execution, improved quality, and easier scale across locations.
6. Expert Impact Is Dramatically Reduced
Your most valuable experts shouldn’t spend their time repeating the same training.
- Encode expert knowledge into reusable workflows
- Reduce shadowing and 1:1 instruction time
- Free experts to focus on exceptions, innovation, and improvement
Outcome: Higher leverage from scarce expertise and less burnout among senior staff.
7. Built-In Feedback Prevents Bad Habits Early
Great digital instruction platforms include:
- Checkpoints and validations
- Photo or video capture
- Embedded quizzes or confirmations
Mistakes are flagged in the moment, not weeks later in a quality review.
Outcome: Fewer rework cycles and safer, more compliant execution.
8. Progress Is Visible for Learners and Leaders
Unlike paper training, AI -powered work instructions generate data.
Managers can see:
- Time-to-competence
- Where learners struggle
- Which steps cause delays or errors
Learners see:
- Progress indicators
- Completion milestones
- Clear expectations
Outcome: Faster intervention, continuous improvement, and measurable ROI on training.
9. Training Directly Translates to Business Results
When training is embedded in work, outcomes compound:
- Faster onboarding
- Higher task accuracy
- Reduced downtime
- Improved safety and compliance
- Better workforce resilience as turnover increases
Bottom line: Training stops being a cost center and becomes an operational advantage.
The Bottom Line
For packaging manufacturers, AI-powered, Digital Work Instructions turn variability into consistency and complexity into repeatable execution that unlocks higher throughput, better quality, and more resilient operations.
