Show HN: Academa – Long-form STEM lecture videos generated by LLMs

https://academa.ai/
16•sinaatalay•1h ago
Hi HN, we are Sina Atalay and Abdullah Geduk, co-founders of Academa. We are both PhD students.

We thought: what if lecture videos were written as code and compiled into video using computer graphics and TTS?

Then LLMs could write them, and lectures could be fixed with code edits instead of video production.

On correctness: LLMs may make mistakes. But these videos are code sitting in our repository, and we can maintain them. Every report and review becomes a fix in the source, and everyone who watches after that gets the corrected lecture. Every recorded lecture on the internet is stuck with its mistakes. Ours will continuously improve.

Each video also comes with an AI chat that understands everything said and shown in the lecture.

There is a longer write-up at the bottom of the page.

Happy to answer any questions.

What LLMs are you using?

Claude Opus 5, with high thinking, generates the video in a single shot.

The one that asks questions at the beginning is Gemini Flash 3.7.

There are misplaced verbal emphasis and non-emphasis. And unfortunately these happen at the crucial moments. Makes it very hard to follow.
