I explored Oboe, a brand-new AI platform that lets anyone create mini-courses in minutes. It’s mobile-friendly and designed for fast, flexible course creation on any topic. Click here to check it out.
To test it, I built a sample course entirely on my phone (a course on real estate appraisal). Getting a course scaffolded took under a minute, and the AI fleshed it out into a functional course in another two to three minutes (readings, lecture audio, quizzes, study tools, and questions for students to explore deeper). The result wasn’t especially deep yet, but it was structured enough to show how quickly educators or learners could spin up a small course module for study or review.
What impressed me most is the potential. Right now the outputs feel minimal (likely due to cost and output limits), but it’s easy to imagine Oboe evolving into a tool that can generate full-fledged, in-depth courses on very specific topics… fast. That speed and flexibility could be a game-changer for mobile learning, particularly for micro-learning in fields like math or educational technology where timely, focused content is valuable.
It also demonstrates how AI and mobile together can shift who gets to create educational content—lowering barriers for both teachers and learners. I’d suggest trying it yourself: the experience alone is a good reminder of how quickly mobile AI tools are moving.
