SkillGnist lets you create a course from any PDF of any length in 10 minutes. Courses have a custom AI agent with knowledge from entire PDF, tasks and articles. I made this because i think focused and pointed learning with maximal personalization is not provided by large learning websites or most education institutions.

Interesting idea. But you need to go into more detail on your data handling - is it safe to upload proprietary information to make an internal course? Where does the data go? OpenAI?

You might also want to make a course about GDPR and then update your privacy policy.

Shameless self-plug but your questions (especially combined with the product posted) are the raison d'etre for our whole company: https://singulatron.com/
The data goes through OpenAI and we store PDF's uploaded.

Interestingly, there is only a single letter i in that sentence, so the simple Bash replacement actually works ))
