ExplainMates

Explain it until a beginner could follow.

ExplainMates coaches you through the Feynman Technique—teach in your own words, find the gaps, then re-teach more simply.

The Feynman loop

Four moves. One goal: a teaching note clear enough for a curious beginner.

  1. Choose a concept

    Pick something you think you know—photosynthesis, recursion, supply and demand.

  2. Explain in your own words

    Write as if teaching a friend. No jargon dump. If you stall, that is a signal.

  3. Find the gaps

    AI feedback marks where clarity breaks—fuzzy analogies, missing edges, shaky structure.

  4. Re-teach more simply

    Rewrite the whole explanation for a 12-year-old. Optionally probe one gap with a short question chain.

Why this works

You cannot hide behind notes. Explaining forces retrieval; gaps show what to study next; re-teaching locks the simpler model in.

Open the studio, pick a concept, and take one honest pass. Share a polished note when you are proud of it.
