Be the person everyone listens to at dinner. Short daily lessons on what to say, how to read people and how to hold a room. Plus all the stories worth retelling tonight.
Learn something new in the time a coffee takes to cool. Factopus is short lessons with quick quizzes, plus a feed of facts you swipe like stories. No lectures, no homework, and the teacher is an octopus.
Pick a topic, any topic: history, psychology, finance, astronomy, communication, critical thinking. Also dog training. Yes, seriously. The catalog runs 250+ courses and 1,400+ lessons, each one short enough to finish between two subway stops.
WHY IT STICKS
Every lesson ends with a quiz, so what you read stays read. Right answers earn stars, streaks track your pace, and a daily goal keeps those five minutes from quietly becoming zero.
FOR THE SPARE MINUTE
Some minutes are too short even for a short lesson. That's what the facts feed is for: 700+ standalone facts to swipe through. Battles that changed everything, what your brain does with unfinished tasks, what the Wild West looked like minus the movie gloss. A few will get retold at dinner.
29 TOPICS, ONE OCTOPUS
History, Psychology, Finance, Career, Communication, Critical Thinking, Decision Making, Physics, Astronomy, Geography, Art, Literature, Philosophy, Economics, Nutrition & Health, English, Parenting, Dog Training and more.
START IN THREE TAPS
1. Choose your topics.
2. Set a daily goal.
3. Do the first lesson right there. Five minutes, done.
Facto, the octopus in charge, has eight arms and strong opinions about wasted minutes. He keeps your streak honest.
