What we do and don't claim
What Funcognito gives you
A route. For a subject you want to learn, Funcognito lays out the topics in an order that makes sense, tells you what you should be able to do after each one, estimates how long it takes, and points you to a free resource to learn it from. It remembers what you have ticked off.
Where the resources come from
Other people made them. NPTEL, MIT OpenCourseWare, university departments, and others publish them free, and Funcognito links to them where they sit. We do not host them, own them or control them. The publisher decides what is in them and whether they stay up. A link that worked last month can be moved or taken down without notice.
We check links before a subject goes live and re-check them as we go. We will still miss some.
Where the notes come from
The short note on each topic — what it is, why it sits there, the thing people usually get wrong — is written by AI. It is there to orient you before you start, not to teach you the subject. No subject expert has reviewed every one of them, and some will be wrong.
Learn the subject from the resource. Use the note to decide what to learn next.
Where the college syllabus paths come from
Some routes follow a published university syllabus, unit by unit. We read those from syllabus documents that are publicly available. We are not connected with, endorsed by, or acting for any university, college or examination board.
Syllabuses are revised, and departments change what they offer from year to year. Your own official syllabus is the one that counts. If it disagrees with what you see here, it is right and we are wrong — and we would like to know.
What the hours mean
A planning estimate, so you can decide what fits in your week. Not a promise, and not how long it will take you. Some people take half; some take double. Neither is a problem.
When something is wrong
Tell us. You can write to contact@funcognito.com about anything here, and any topic that links to a video carries a report link as well. A wrong note or a dead link that someone reports gets fixed. One that nobody reports stays wrong, so the report is genuinely useful.
