I built an AI learning platform that turns studying into an RPG

As a solo developer, I was frustrated: I'd start online courses and never finish them. No structure, no motivation, no proof of learning.

So I built cmonfy — an AI-powered learning platform with gamification.

How it works

  1. Tell the AI what you want to learn (e.g., "Python from scratch, 2 weeks")
  2. AI creates a structured plan with tasks, subtasks, links, and YouTube tutorials
  3. Complete tasks → earn XP → level up your character (Lv.1 → Lv.10)
  4. Take AI-generated quizzes to verify knowledge → earn bonus coins
  5. Compete on skill-based leaderboards

What makes it different

Feature Todoist Duolingo Habitica cmonfy
AI Mentor
Auto Study Plans
Knowledge Quizzes
Character Evolution
YouTube Integration

Tech stack

  • Frontend: Next.js 16, Tailwind CSS
  • Backend: Next.js API Routes, Drizzle ORM
  • Database: PostgreSQL (Neon)
  • AI: OpenAI GPT-4o-mini
  • Auth: Clerk
  • Hosting: Vercel
  • Payments: Paddle, Crypto

It's free to use

The free tier includes full gamification, 10 AI messages/day, and 50 tasks. Pro ($9.99/mo) unlocks unlimited AI and higher daily rewards.
