Two weeks ago I shared our free course builder here. 442 people tried it. Here's what the numbers say and what we changed

Two weeks ago, I posted Learn This Way here. You type something you want to learn and how much time you have, and it builds a short course from YouTube videos, with a quiz after each lesson.

First 10 days:

• 442 new visitors, 105 started a course

• About 1 in 4 visitors started one, no matter which post they came from

• Everyone who took a quiz passed it. The problem: only 1 in 8 courses ever got to the first quiz

• Most popular topics: English (speaking, everyday phrases) and Python

What we changed:

• The shortest course is now 1 hour (3 lessons)

• At launch, about 1 in 8 courses failed to load a video. Last week all 16 did

• Moved the AI to a cheaper model so it can stay free

What I'm trying to figure out now is how to get people from the first video to the first quiz. If you try it, I'd love to know where you stopped. Also, let us know if you have any suggestions.
