What’s Intentionally Excluded

No Gamification (Core Decision)

  • AI does not “force” studying
  • AI suggestions are always advisory, never mandatory

Advanced AI Features (Planned - Future Phases)

  • Personalized study paths
  • AI-generated practice questions
  • Predictive performance modeling
  • Adaptive difficulty scaling

Why These Exclusions

The MVP is designed to prove learning outcomes, not engagement metrics.

Excluded features are either:

  • Distractions from actual learning
  • Unproven to improve retention
  • Out of scope for proving core value proposition

Future Phases Will Include (Planned)

  • Advanced AI features (personalized study paths)
  • Subscription and monetization model
  • School and institution integration
  • Offline mode
  • Peer study groups
  • AI-generated practice questions
  • Advanced analytics and predictions
