Every learner has had this moment: three tabs open, a course that's 40% “review” and 60% filler, and no idea whether today's hour actually moved them closer to mastery. Study apps assume everyone starts at the same place and needs the same route. They don’t. The problem is not access to information; it is navigation of infinite information. 92% of students already use AI to study, yet that usage is unstructured and prone to dropping off within weeks. The global AI-in-personalized-learning category is valued at roughly $9.2 billion in 2025, growing at 25–42% CAGR, while the best-funded incumbent (Khan Academy/Khanmigo) has publicly acknowledged an engagement gap and is redesigning its own AI tutor in 2026. That combination—proven demand, a large but fragmented field, and a category leader visibly struggling with the exact problem METIS is architected to solve—is the opportunity METIS is built around. METIS is a learning GPS. Instead of a fixed syllabus, it continuously maps what a learner actually knows, calculates the shortest honest route to mastery, and recalculates the instant they drift off course. Most ed-tech treats a curriculum like a straight line, but METIS inverts that: the route is the product. There is no fixed course to fall behind on or race ahead of—there’s a live, individual path that only exists because a specific learner exists. METIS turns any goal into a personalized, adaptive roadmap of free multimodal resources online and is run by four agents: A Planner (Gemini 2.5 Flash + Tavily) structures a sequenced roadmap. A Resource Curator (Cerebras gpt-oss-120b) finds the best videos, articles, and practice resources. An Optimizer (Groq llama-3.3-70b + Fireworks) tracks user preferences, and a Memory agent (Groq llama-3.1-8b) compresses chat history into notes for long-term memory storage. Rather than a static study plan, METIS re-routes the learning journey as the user interacts with it—like a GPS recalculating after a wrong turn.
