24 alternatives to Learn beautifully, with content-specific AI lessons
Hi HN, For 4 years I've worked on the psychology of learning following a CompSci degree with an AI minor from back in 2019. I love the future of effective learning that is coming. This is a way for you to study for specific exams, lectures and videos. You upload your content, and get specific, citing flashcard exercises delivered in a fun way. Not only can you view the timestamp in the video that a question was generated from, for example, but your answers are used to inform a "Compilation stage". The Compilation stage uses your choices of answers (and wrong answers), as well as data on when…

Hi, I'm a high school teacher from Australia and I've built what I'd like to think is a pretty nifty ChatGPT powered presentation tool for teachers. I'd love it if you could have a look at it and give me some of your feedback. I don't think there's much overlap with the HN crowd and school teachers, but I've been coming here for many years and thought I'd post here and see what you all think. Check it out if you have a minute and I'd be super happy to hear your feedback too. https://www.slidehero.ai/ You can jump in and have a play with the tool all you like ;) Cheers, Eli

Lexie▲102Built this because kids 10-15 can't prompt AI effectively. They'd type "make quiz plz" and get confused when ChatGPT asks for context. Lexie takes 46 steps of AI prompting, context explanation, and output formatting and makes it one step: point camera, get quiz. The photo constraint isn't just better UX, it's the only way to get usable output from that age group. This demographic gets the worst deal in edtech. Too advanced for baby apps, too young for adult tools. They get gamification theater instead of real learning tools. I stripped all that out. Photo your geology notes, get instant…

Periplus▲20I've been building this for a few months now, started because I was frustrated with how I learn using LLMs. You get a wall of text that vanishes into chat history. Wikipedia's the opposite: endless rabbit holes without structure. I wanted something in between. Periplus generates courses as connected markdown documents, tailored to your level. It asks a few questions upfront, builds a syllabus, and each concept links to related ones. Click a term you don't understand and it opens a new document side-by-side. Heavy inspiration from Obsidian - the graph view is similar, and there's an Obsidian…

Since the beginning of the pandemic in 2020 I have been recording my university lectures for all of my courses and posting them online for free for anyone to watch. You can click the link for a YouTube playlist, or click the Google Spreadsheet for a breakdown of all the lectures of that course offering. Here is my standard response for those asking for the assignment files, which I unfortunately do not provide: https://www.cs.mun.ca/~dchurchill/teaching/youtube.txt

I built Learn Leap because I found myself constantly asking ChatGPT questions while reading research papers. I wanted something that already understood what I was reading. With Learn Leap you can upload your own material and have an AI tutor teach directly from it. The tutor has full context on your material and can create quizzes, flashcards, and exams to test your understanding. It's still early and I'd love feedback from HN on the product and the learning experience. Cheers.
