Show HN: Profound Academy – an agentic course builder for hands-on courses

https://profound.academy
1•mirakyanmartin•57m ago
I built an AI course builder that helps you create hands-on course materials, interactive tutorials, exercises, and automatically checks the work submitted by students. It should feel like Claude Code or Codex for building courses.

Most AI course generators stop after producing a syllabus or a collection of text. I wanted the agent to work on the actual course. After giving it a prompt, learning objectives, or a syllabus, the course builder can create and edit: - Modules, lessons, and learning paths - Coding, SQL, multiple-choice, checkbox, and written exercises - Starter code, public examples, hidden tests, and custom checkers - Solutions, editorials, hints, and grading rubrics - Projects, quizzes, and exams - Translations to different languages - Interactive HTML artifacts inside descriptions to make learning more fun

It requires an account, but new accounts receive credits to try the builder.

Looking forward to your comments and feedback.
