How XP is earned
XP is awarded only on quiz and exercise modules. Reading modules give you 0 XP, on purpose (so a long reading-only trail can’t farm points).
The XP value of each module is decided by an AI evaluator at trail-creation time, based on four factors:
- Subject complexity (cooking basics 1.0× → quantum physics 3.0×).
- Module type (quiz 20–60 XP, exercise 30–150 XP).
- Module length (longer = proportionally more).
- Trail difficulty (Beginner 1.0× → Advanced 1.6×).
Levels
Your XP total maps to a level: Explorer (level 1), Pathfinder, Trailblazer, and so on. Levels are purely cosmetic right now — a tag on your profile and avatar menu — but they give you a sense of momentum.
Streaks — the gentle nudge
A streak counts how many consecutive days you’ve completed at least one module. The current count appears in your avatar menu and on your dashboard.
Miss a day and the streak resets to 0. The cost of a slip is small — just start again. Streaks are a gentle nudge, not a punishment.
What counts as "completed"
A module is completed when you tap "Mark complete" (reading) or submit an answer (quiz / exercise). A trail is completed when every module is.
Completed trails stay accessible forever in your dashboard, regardless of plan. If you downgrade from Pro to Free, you keep read access to everything you’ve already finished.
No retakes, on purpose
In V1 you can’t retake a quiz or exercise to improve your score. We made this choice deliberately to make the score meaningful — if everyone could retake, the score would just be "did you eventually figure it out". Retake support is on the roadmap for V1.5.
