New
Privacy-first analytics, only if you say yes
We added optional analytics (Microsoft Clarity) to understand how the site is used and improve it. On your first visit you'll see a short banner: nothing loads and no analytics cookie is set unless you accept, declining is just as easy, and you can change your mind anytime from the cookie policy.

Improved
Stay signed in — no surprise re-logins
Your session now stays valid while you work, and a brief connection hiccup no longer kicks you out of a lesson or drops an answer you just submitted. If you do need to sign in again, you land back on the exact page you were on.
-
Improved
The site knows when you're signed in
Public pages now recognise a signed-in account and send you straight to your dashboard instead of asking you to log in again.
-
Improved
A smoother start for free learners
Free learners now begin straight away with the modules available to them, while your full placement stays visible as a goal. Locked modules show a clear "upgrade to unlock" prompt instead of an error.
-
New
Your profile page
A new profile page brings together your account summary, learning stats, goals, and email preferences in one place.
-
New
Pro subscriptions and in-app upgrade
A Pro subscription unlocks the full curriculum and the coach, and you can now upgrade and manage your plan without leaving the app. Free access to the foundational track stays open to every signed-in learner.
-
New
Portfolio submissions
Submit a real artifact — a repository, a pull request, a demo, or a write-up — as proof of the applied work behind a module, and get it reviewed. Verifiable work, not self-attestation.
-
New
Program progress on your dashboard
A progress card shows how many modules you've mastered across every track — framed as competence, not hours logged.
-
New
Free build-in-public architecture notes
A new set of free, sourced architecture notes joins the guides library — real engineering decisions from building this platform.
-
Improved
Routine security and maintenance updates
Ongoing behind-the-scenes updates to keep the platform secure and dependable.

New
A new track: AI regulation & compliance
The curriculum gained a track on AI regulatory and compliance architecture — risk-tiering, the EU AI Act, US rules, and privacy-by-design — aimed at engineers who need to build to the rules.
-
New
Free guides library and public site
A free, sourced reference library for senior engineers moving into AI went live, alongside the published curriculum and a sample lesson — no sign-up required.
-
Improved
Accessibility and polish
Across-the-board refinements to colour contrast, motion, and navigation (breadcrumbs and a back-to-top control) for a clearer, more accessible experience.
-
New
Platform launch
The learning platform went live: lessons with quizzes, spaced-repetition review that brings concepts back just before you'd forget them, mastery tracking per objective, and an AI coach that helps you reason through a problem rather than handing you the answer — with sign-in and a personal dashboard.
