Generate a Course From a One-Sentence Brief
No document? Type a topic, audience, and goal. Kompyl writes the course from scratch.
When you don't have source material, you have a topic. Kompyl's text-prompt mode expands a one-sentence brief into a multi-module course — using the underlying LLM's domain knowledge to produce concrete, factual content rather than placeholder bullets.

What changes on day one
- You stop owning the deepest technical detail; you start owning the why.
- Your output isn't code — it's decisions, alignment, and momentum.
- You will write 5× more than you used to. Specs, briefs, updates.
- Calendars stop being yours. Time-blocking becomes survival.

What this means in practice
- Open-prompt mode — type a topic, pick an audience, get a full course.
- No placeholders: every slide is filled with real, concrete content.
- Steer with: tone (professional / casual / academic), audience, slide count, language.
- Same outputs as document mode — PPTX + quiz + flashcards + facilitator guide.
Common questions
- How does text-prompt mode avoid "lorem ipsum" slides?
- The prompt forces the LLM to produce concrete claims — actual statistics, named techniques, specific tools — and a repair pass on the spec rejects any slide where the body is below a content-density threshold. If a slide ends up vague, the spec generator re-runs that section only, with a stricter prompt. Result: every slide reads as if a domain expert wrote it.
- Can I trust factual claims in a fully-AI-generated course?
- Treat it as a strong first draft, not a verified textbook. Like every LLM tool, Kompyl can confidently produce a wrong stat. We recommend a 5-minute review pass before the course goes to learners, especially for compliance content. For high-stakes accuracy, upload a source document instead — the document mode constrains the LLM to what the source actually says.
- What is an AI course generator?
- An AI course generator is a tool that turns a document, brief, or topic into a structured online course — typically including slides, a quiz, and supporting study material — in a single workflow. The goal is to compress what used to be 8–20 hours of instructional design into a few minutes of upload + review.
- How is Kompyl different from Gamma or HeyGen?
- Gamma generates slides. HeyGen generates avatar video. Kompyl generates a complete course kit — slides plus a quiz, flashcards, a study guide, and a facilitator guide — all from one upload. You can edit every block, swap palettes, change languages, and re-render.
- Can I upload a PDF and get a course back?
- Yes — Kompyl accepts PDF, DOCX, PPTX, TXT, MD, HTML, and CSV uploads. Scanned PDFs are OCR'd via vision AI automatically. The PDF is read, structured into modules, and rendered as a multi-slide deck with a matching quiz and facilitator guide.
- Is there a free version?
- Yes — anonymous visitors get a free preview and signed-in free accounts get a small monthly quota. Paid plans unlock larger course lengths, more downloads, and premium palettes.
