A tutor that reads the lesson first
We opened the AI tutor on thirty courses. It answers from the lesson on screen and names the minute it used.

About Waypoint
AI drafts the outline.
A person grades your project.
Waypoint began in 2021 as twelve courses recorded in one room in Lisbon. Sixty-four of us now run 12,400, on the rule we started with.
How we use AI
Where the model stops and a person takes over
Three tools on Waypoint run on a language model. Each one has a line it does not cross, and a person waiting on the other side of it.
It answers from the lesson you have open
The tutor reads the transcript, the slides and your notes on the lesson in front of you. Ask it for the answer to a graded quiz and it asks you a question back instead.

Course standards
What a course passes before you can buy it
Four checks, run in this order before a course goes on sale. About one course in five goes back to its teacher at the second check.
The teacher
The teacher is who they say they are
We check the teacher's ID, work history, one reference and a ten‑minute sample lesson before the studio drafts a thing. The four checks take about eleven days to finish.
What we check
- Government ID
- Work history
- One reference
- Sample lesson
“We phone every reference. A letter anyone could write proves nothing.”

What we keep
In short
Your account, what you watch, and your notes.
We store your email, the lessons you open and how far you get, your notes, your quiz answers and your receipts. Card numbers stay with our payment processor, and we never see them.
- 02
What the tutor sees
In short
The lesson on screen and your question.
A question to the tutor sends it the open lesson's transcript, your notes on that lesson and the question. It never sees your other courses or payments, and we delete its conversations after 90 days.
- 03
What teachers see
In short
Your first name, your progress and your projects.
A teacher sees your first name, how far you are in their course, your quiz scores and the projects you submit to them. Your email stays hidden from a teacher until you write to them first.
- 04
What we never sell
In short
Your data, to anyone, for any price.
We do not sell or rent personal data, and we do not train models on your notes or your projects. Totals, such as how many learners finish a path, appear on this site with nobody in them named.
- 05
Deleting your account
In short
One button in Settings, and 30 days.
Delete your account in Settings and we erase everything tied to it within 30 days, apart from receipts, which tax law makes us keep for seven years. Certificates you downloaded stay yours.
