Grasp
The operating system for bootcamps.
Bring a syllabus, slides and recordings. Grasp drafts narrated, interactive lessons you shape with an AI partner, then runs the cohort and shows how every learner is doing.

The problem
Grasp started as an AI tutor for learners. Teaching taught me the bigger problem is on the other side of the room: instructors have great material and no time to turn it into something learners can work through on their own.
01
Start from what instructors already have
Upload a syllabus, slides, PDFs or recordings and Grasp drafts the course: narrated lessons with checks and exercises. The instructor stays the author, working with an AI partner that can make a lesson more hands-on, add a quick check or tighten the narration.
02
Practice, not just content
Learners write and run real code in the lesson, get AI feedback tied to the lesson's objectives, and can talk to a voice tutor in real time over WebRTC. Narration is voiced once and stored, and the interface and courses are available in 18 languages.
03
Run the cohort, see every learner
Cohorts have calendars, live sessions, reminders and payments. Instructors see where each learner is stuck and adapt the lesson. Several people can edit a course at once, with live cursors and version history.
