Hi HN,

Too many times in my life I always thought to myself.. man I wish I could just create some simple learning content for my friends/peers/coworkers, and I didn't want to send over just a pdf. I've always liked the idea of LMS systems but wished consumers had access to similar systems.

So I thought I'd create a platform that would help me with my problem and Odyssey was born. Odyssey is a web-app that lets you create fun learning content simply. It gives anyone the ability to create learning content whenever they need it. For example, I recently created a piece of learning content titled "How to get started with investing" for my friends.

The product is definitely in its infancy and I'm looking for any and all feedback!

I would love to see different types of steps / contents. For example: Videos, PDF, other Files, Links to external sources; maybe even SCORMs.

Thank you for the feedback!SCORMs especially is an interesting idea. Could I ask in what use cases you might see these other types of content coming in handy?

If I were to create a journey for a friend describing a process how to set up an imap mail account on your iphone for example, I would create it with already existing contents on the internet. Maybe use a useful youtube tutorial or an article on the verge or something.

It looks interesting but I would like to see some examples. Can you please add a couple to the landing page? Thanks.

Yes good call. I'll put a few together and put a link out to them on the landing page.

But just to explain some use cases, employee knowledge sharing (since regular employees don't get access to their corporate LMS), pre-work for workshops, a more interesting "wiki-how" for technical things.

TLDR its just for those niche use cases where you want to create interesting learning content on the fly
