AI-native learning

Master anything.

Lyceum researches any topic, runs a quick placement test, and builds a mastery curriculum with spaced review that makes it stick.

A look at Lyceum Pro running the learning loop end to end, in the Bento interface. Two cuts: the product reel, and the dashboard running live.

What it is

A portable, evidence-based way to actually learn.

Point Lyceum at calculus, the cello, contract law, or Rust. It researches the domain into a teachable map, places you at the right level, and builds a curriculum ordered by what depends on what.

From there it teaches concrete-first, checks your understanding, hands you assignments calibrated to the edge of your ability, grades them with feedback that teaches, schedules spaced reviews, and finishes with a defended capstone and certification.

The desktop app takes all of this out of a chat transcript and into a dedicated learning environment — same science, same loop, purpose-built interface.

Built on learning science

The methods with the strongest empirical support

Retrieval practice Spaced repetition Interleaving Deliberate practice Mastery learning Backward design
Mastery gating — You advance only when you have actually demonstrated competence — not when you feel ready.
Durable memory — Recall first, then review on a schedule, so what you learn stays learned long after the lesson.
The method, in motion Four pieces of the loop, looping.
The learning loop

Nine coordinated skills, in order.

Each step reads the course state, does its job, and writes it back — so the loop is resumable, transferable, and honest about what you have mastered.

01

learn

The orchestrator and entry point. Sets up the workspace, captures your start and target level, and routes to the next step.

02

research-topic

Deep research into a teachable knowledge map: concepts, prerequisites, misconceptions, and authentic tasks.

03

placement-test

A roughly ten-item adaptive test that recommends the right level for you to start from.

04

build-curriculum

A backward-designed curriculum across your level band, ordered by a prerequisite graph.

05

teach-lesson

Teaches the current module concrete-first, checks understanding, closes with free recall, and seeds reviews.

06

create-assignment

A level-appropriate assignment and rubric, calibrated to the edge of your ability.

07

assess-understanding

Grades a submission, gives feedback that teaches, updates mastery, and schedules reviews.

08

review-session

Spaced-repetition review of everything that is due — the biggest long-term retention lever in the loop.

09

capstone

An authentic, defended, rubric-scored mastery project — and a certificate of mastery.

It's a cycle, not a checklist: steps 05–08 (teach → assign → assess → review) repeat per module, with assessment and review feeding back into teaching until you reach mastery — then the course closes at the capstone.

How it works

Built so your progress can't lie or vanish.

A few architectural ideas keep Lyceum durable, honest, and yours.

State, not conversation

Every step reads manifest.json, acts, and writes it back. Routing is computed from disk — so a course can pause, resume across sessions, and survive a context reset.

Your folder is the save file

All course state lives in plain files you can copy anywhere. Move a course between machines by copying a folder — no account, no lock-in, no database to lose.

One writer for mastery

Only assessment and review write mastery scores, so feeling fluent never inflates the data. The curriculum is data, not hardcoded logic — so Lyceum stays fully subject-agnostic.

FAQ

Questions, answered.

The honest version. If something isn't here, email hello@lyceum-pro.com.

Is the app ready?

Yes. Lyceum Pro is in early access for macOS and Windows, installable in one line today, and improving fast. Your license includes free updates as it evolves. Prefer to try the method first? The open-source plugin is free.

Is it a subscription?

No. One payment of $49 for a lifetime license. Subscription cost from us is $0, because Lyceum runs on the Claude you already pay for.

Do I have to pay for Claude separately?

Yes, and that is the point. Lyceum drives the Claude Code you already have, which is exactly why it is a one-time price instead of a subscription.

Can I bring my own model?

Yes, as an advanced option. The default path is the Claude you already pay for. Advanced users can instead point Lyceum at their own Anthropic API key, AWS Bedrock, Google Vertex, or any Anthropic-compatible gateway.

What can I learn?

Anything teachable. Calculus, the cello, contract law, Rust. The system is subject-agnostic because the curriculum is data, not hardcoded lessons.

Will I lose my progress?

No. Every course is plain files in a folder you own. Copy it between machines, back it up, and resume any time. No account, no lock-in.

How many machines can I use?

Use one license on a few machines, and manage your activations any time.

What if it is not for me?

Email us within 14 days for a full refund, no questions asked. You can also try the whole method free via the plugin before you buy.
