About Vortex
Learn anything from YouTube, like a course.
Courses built from videos you already trust, with saved progress and a quiz after every lesson.
Why we built it
Great teaching, finally in order.
YouTube holds some of the best teaching in the world, from people who love their subject. But it is scattered. There is no order to follow, no checkpoints along the way, and no way to know you have really got it.
Vortex adds the structure a good course gives you: lessons in order, progress that remembers where you stopped, and a short quiz after every video. The videos stay in YouTube’s own player, and every creator stays credited.
- Lessons in order
- Saved to the second
- A quiz per video
How it works
Four steps, one habit.
Find what to learn
01Browse courses by category, or ask search a question in plain English and get the lessons that teach it.
Watch, and pick up where you stopped
02Videos play here, in YouTube's own player. Your place saves to the second, and your course progress moves as you watch.
Check you've got it
03When a video ends, a short quiz unlocks. Submit to see your grade and what you missed, then retake it until you pass.
Build a plan for anything else
04Describe a goal, like baking bread, and Vortex designs a syllabus and picks a YouTube video for every lesson.
