Rancho – An AI tutor that teaches with games and videos

Hacker News

Hi HN, I’m Chaitya, a student at IIIT Bangalore, and I recently built Rancho, a free AI-powered tutor for school students. It teaches tough concepts using creative explanations, AI-generated videos and interactive games — all in one unified interface, designed to make learning feel like play. As a student myself, I was frustrated with how dull and static online learning felt. I wanted something more intuitive, more visual, and more fun. So I built Rancho to reimagine how students engage with difficult topics. Key features: AI-generated video lessons Turn concepts into a game-based experience Creative explanations and quizzes It’s in open beta and offers free credits on signup. I’d love your feedback, ideas, or brutal honesty. Try it here: https://www.rancho-ai.com/
