Goodscroll is an AI-powered edtech platform that transforms passive video watching into active learning — built for learners at any level.
Instead of letting students mindlessly consume educational content, Goodscroll interrupts at key moments with contextually-generated questions delivered to a companion mobile app. The video keeps playing on the main screen while the question appears on the student's phone, turning screen time into study time without breaking the viewing experience.
- Browse — A Netflix-style web interface organizes educational videos by subject and surfaces a personalized "For You" feed based on the learner's proficiency profile.
- Watch — The video plays normally, but a countdown appears in the corner: "A question is coming in 3..."
- Answer — The question pops up on the student's phone (the mobile remote). They answer while the video continues.
- Learn — AI generates video transitions that feel native to the content rather than jarring pop-up overlays, keeping immersion intact.
During onboarding, learners set up a subject proficiency profile visualized as a stat hexagon. They can also upload lecture slides, syllabi, or course materials to auto-calibrate their profile — so whether you're studying for a calc exam or reviewing med school anatomy, the system quizzes you on what matters.
