Course builder
Courses built from sources, not from a prompt.
Most tools generate a course from a topic. Omphalis has to go and find the material first, establish that it is free to use, and discard what does not hold up. When the sources cannot carry a subject, it says so rather than writing something plausible.
How a course gets built
It looks for material, not answers
A build starts by searching for real sources, steered first at places whose terms are already known: open textbooks, public reference works, open-access research, federal agency material. What comes back is a list of documents, not a draft.
Rights are settled before anything is read
The licence is established before a single page is extracted. Non-commercial material is refused. So is anything whose licence cannot be established, because the safe direction to be wrong in is the restrictive one. A source from a domain the system has not seen before waits for a person to check it rather than being guessed at.
What survives still has to earn its place
Candidates are dropped for being too thin, unreadable, already held, or simply not teaching the thing the lesson needs. A source can be entirely legitimate and still be turned away for not being useful.
Nothing is rewritten
A lesson is a real passage from a real source, narrowed to the part that teaches one idea. Quiz answers are quoted from the source and checked, character by character, against the text they claim to come from. Anything that cannot be traced back is dropped rather than patched.
The plan comes before the sources
A course is drafted as a ladder of objectives, in the order they have to be learned. Only then does the builder look for something to teach each one. When an objective cannot be grounded, the ladder is redrawn against what actually exists rather than filled with something adjacent.
It is allowed to say no
Before a build begins, the builder checks whether the material exists at all. If it does not, it tells you so, and what is missing. A finished course is then read by three independent evaluations against a fixed rubric, and has to clear the bar on every one. A course that misses it is not published. A course that stopped for lack of material is not quietly retried, because more computing cannot conjure material that is not there.
A builder that never refuses anything is not being generous. It is not checking.
Several sources. Several formats.
A course can draw on articles, PDFs, open-access papers, podcast segments and video. Each lesson is grounded in one source; the course as a whole is assembled from several. You can see exactly where every part came from: the number of sources on the card, the named sources before you start, the source on each lesson in the outline, and a full attribution list with every licence at the end. Where a licence only permits an excerpt, or only the source’s own player, the lesson says so plainly.
The catalog is expanding daily.
Make it fit you
Tell it what you want to get out of a course, tick the parts you already know, set a level and how long you have. It returns a plan before it builds anything: what it kept, what it reworked, what it added, what it left out. You prune that plan yourself, and only then does it build.
Reading courses is included on every plan. Building your own is a Premium feature.
Anyone can generate a course. This one had to go and find it.
