Cultigen
Cultigen is a course engine that transforms frontier research and emerging technology into complete hands-on courses, each comprising a lesson, a working interactive, and a buildable kit. Every course is AI-generated and reviewed by the original researchers to ensure accuracy and responsibility, then delivered through in-person, city-based cohort workshops. The first course brand, FunguyLab, is already live.

Problem
The most advanced technological knowledge is often locked inside elite research labs and institutions, making it inaccessible to most people. As AI handles routine work, the ability to understand and build upon the newest research becomes increasingly valuable, yet it remains a concentrated asset available to only a small number of individuals.
Solution
Cultigen is a course engine that turns the latest technology into hands-on, in-person learning experiences. The platform uses AI to generate complete courses—each consisting of a lesson, a working interactive, and a buildable kit—that teach frontier research, with every course reviewed by the original researchers to maintain trustworthiness and responsibility. Learners join city-based cohorts where they build real projects guided by the course team, making the boundary of human knowledge a shared, global asset rather than a privilege. Courses focus on practical application, allowing participants to understand and create with emerging technology while it is still new.
Target Audience
Primary customers are individuals seeking hands-on, in-person education in advanced technology, including creators, developers, and professionals who want to understand and work with frontier research before it becomes mainstream.
