Frequently Asked Questions

PathBits is a daily learning platform designed to help you build knowledge gradually. You follow topics you care about and receive short articles each day that deepen your understanding over time.

Articles are bite sized pieces of learning. Each article focuses on a single idea or concept within a topic, making it easy to learn something new every day without feeling overwhelmed.

Topics are collections of related articles centered around a broader subject. A topic represents the overall learning path, while articles are the individual steps along the way.

Autogenerated topics use AI to generate articles with carefully crafted prompts that emphasize continuous, structured learning, progressing from foundational ideas to more advanced concepts over time.

Articles can be created in two ways. Topics that are set to autogenerate publish a new article every day at 00:00 UTC. Topics that are not set to autogenerate require the topic owner to manually create articles on their own schedule.

Private topics are for your eyes only. No one else can see the topic or the articles generated from it, making them ideal for personal interests or focused learning.

Hearting a topic adds it to your feed. Once followed, your feed updates each day with new articles for every topic you have hearted.

Your feed is your personal learning hub, designed to stay focused by default. It shows the current day's articles for the topics you follow, so you are not overwhelmed with extra content. You can follow as many topics as you like to receive more daily articles, or keep your feed intentionally small and focused. When you want to explore more, you can toggle filters to view older articles from your hearted topics at any time. Your feed adapts to how you want to learn, whether that means staying minimal or going deeper.

No problem! You have the ability to create your own topic. This gives you complete control over what you want to learn about and ensures your feed stays personalized to your interests.

On your feed each week, we recommend three suggested topics based on the topics you already follow. This gives you a simple way to expand your horizons while staying aligned with your interests.
