You have eleven half-finished courses on Coursera. A MasterClass subscription you stopped opening. A Notion full of saved YouTube tutorials. You ran out of patience for products that confused content with progress. Learnin is an AI course generator. Tell it your role and what you want to be able to do — Marketing Manager moving into PMM, Designer moving into Product Lead, Engineer moving toward Staff. It generates a real course in 90 seconds. Modules, mental models, a capstone. Built backwards from a skill you can use Monday morning. Fifteen minutes a day. Every lesson opens with a scenario from your actual job, not a flashcard. Every module ends with a named mental model you can reach for when you need it. Courses are generated on demand, not picked from a fixed library. Adapted to your role and level — a Staff Engineer doesn't get junior analogies. Quizzes test judgment, not recall. No mascot. No streak to game. No hearts to lose. Just a clear next step every day. Dark mode. Clean design. Built for the fifteen minutes you have between meetings, on the train, or before bed. Not for everyone. If you want a learning game, Duolingo built that and built it well. If you want a content library, Coursera has seven thousand courses. If you want a course that ends with a usable skill — generated for your role, your level, your fifteen minutes — that's us. An AI course generator. For your career. In your pocket. --- Subscription Information Learnin Pro is available as an auto-renewable subscription: • Learnin Pro Weekly — 1-week subscription • Learnin Pro Monthly — 1-month subscription • Learnin Pro Annual — 1-year subscription Pricing displayed in the app at the time of purchase.
