Coursebox

AI course creation platform. LLM features in production, and product analytics with PostHog.

Context

Coursebox is an AI course creation platform: give it a topic or source material and it generates the course outline, content and quizzes.

What I do

  • LLM features: from prompt design and structured output to evaluation, so generated courses are reliable.
  • Product analytics: events and funnels in PostHog to see where people drop off, with the findings taken back into product discussions.
  • Full stack: back-end services, data pipelines and front-end features.

What I learned

Treat model output like an API: define the shape first, then check it against an eval set instead of eyeballing a few samples. Analytics works the same way: decide the question before deciding what to track.
