How Quest works

You make a companion, tell it what you want to learn, and do one short part a day. It asks the questions, remembers your answers and checks back before you forget.

Make your companion

You design them

Pick a face, an age, hair, clothes and a voice. Then give them a personality, three interests and two values, so they explain things the way you'd want them explained.

  • Change anything later. Ask for a scarf, new glasses or a different jacket; everything you didn't ask to change stays the same.
  • Theirs is the face you see. On your home screen, in chat, and on every lesson.

Lessons you answer

Each course is a few short parts, opened one a day. Every part ends with you doing something, because pulling an idea back out of your head is what makes it stay.

Read
A short page, never a wall. One idea at a time, with a picture or a voice to listen to.
Pick one
A quick call between two or three answers, and why the right one is right.
Fill the gap
You write the missing word. Producing it beats recognising it.
Put it in order
Drag the steps where they go, so the sequence is yours, not ours.
Match them up
Words to meanings, causes to effects.
Say it back
Explain it in your own words. Your companion reads it and answers.
Checkpoints
A short round of questions partway through, and a final at the end.

It checks back

Your companion remembers what you got wrong yesterday and asks about it before today's part. Talk it through by text or voice whenever you're stuck.

  • One part a day. The next one opens tomorrow, which spaces your practice for you.
  • Points for showing up. Every finished part earns XP, and your companion notices the streak.
