An AI physics tutor
that finds what you don’t know.

One conversation. You explain a physics concept you think you understand — the moment you start hand-waving, it stops you. That’s where the real intuition lives.

What keeps a planet from spiraling into the sun over time?

you

It's moving sideways fast enough that it keeps missing.

ai

Right — but what stops it from gradually slowing down and falling in?

you

Nothing's there to slow it. There's no friction in space.

ai

So if I dropped a feather and a brick at the edge of a vacuum chamber on the moon — same answer? Walk me through it.

the map

Every conversation builds
a picture of how you think about physics.

Each cell is a physics concept at a depth tier — naive through frontier, across mechanics, thermodynamics, electromagnetism, and modern physics. Color tells the AI you can recite it. Saturation tells it you actually use it. Empty cells are fair game.

The map is private, persistent, and yours. Five years from now, you should be able to look at it and see the long arc of how your physics intuition was built.

color = mastery · brighter = deeper
one input · three modes

You don’t pick the mode.
The orchestrator does.

A meta-orchestrator reads what you said and dispatches. From your side it feels like one continuous, attentive conversation that knows what you need next.

teach · probe

You teach a concept.

The system probes the edge of your understanding. Where do you start hand-waving? That's the gap. It draws it clearly and stays there with you until you cross it.

goal · plan

You name a goal.

It maps the prerequisite chain, identifies which prereqs you already own, and drops you at the first real gap. No grinding through what you've already mastered.

problem · analyze

You paste a problem.

It identifies the concepts the problem requires, classifies which you own and which you don't, and surfaces the missing ones before you spiral on a wrong attempt.

what it isn’t

Most tools answer your questions.
This one probes them.

not a chatbot

A chatbot answers your questions. This system probes yours and refuses to hand you the answer.

not a physics textbook

A textbook is linear and ignores you. This is responsive — it only ever shows you the physics you don't know yet.

not a general homework helper

Physics first, on purpose. The whole orchestrator — taxonomy, depth tiers, probes — is tuned for how physics intuition is built.

One conversation that knows your physics gaps better than you do.
