It's an amazing product and exceeded my expectations, helping me prepare for my job interviews. Hands-on learning requires you to actually know what you are doing.

Alex Bush

Full Stack Engineer

I'm really impressed by the AI tutor Cosmo's feedback about my code. It's honestly kind of insane to me that it's so targeted and specific.

Abbey Helterbran
