Claudemy: an open-source alternative to Udemy and Coursera. Give Claude a topic, it researches the web and builds a course of 2-minute audio lessons with cited sources. A free Claude Code skill.

What it solves

Claudemy addresses the problem of "course fatigue"—the tendency to abandon long, outdated, or overly academic online courses. Instead of static, hours-long lectures, it generates concise, actionable, and personalized learning experiences based on current web content.

How it works

Claudemy operates as a skill for Claude Code. When you provide a topic, it:

  1. Maps the subject into logical sub-topics.
  2. Researches 20–40 diverse web sources to ensure a balanced perspective.
  3. Uses reader agents to synthesize information, identify areas of expert disagreement, and build a structured lesson plan.
  4. Generates a series of 12 short (2-minute) audio lessons featuring two hosts, alongside summary cards and a practical playbook.

Who it’s for

It is for self-directed learners who want to master practical skills, professional topics, or specific subjects without committing to traditional, long-form video courses. It is particularly useful for those who prefer learning through short, actionable "micro-lessons" that include real-world practice tasks.

Highlights

  • Personalized Curriculum: Builds courses on demand for any topic or based on the specific writings of a chosen expert.
  • Action-Oriented: Every lesson concludes with one small, practical thing to try and a rule to keep.
  • Evidence-Based: Provides real citations and highlights where experts disagree, ensuring you see the full picture.
  • Flexible Audio: Supports high-quality two-voice narration via ElevenLabs or free local macOS voices.
  • Privacy-Focused: Runs entirely on your local machine with no external analytics or server-side data storage.
