Learn philosophy, history, art history, psychology, and economics through AI conversations designed to navigate your curiosity. Heuris adapts to what you explore and curates a daily feed of topics you'll actually want to read and learn about. Built for people who love going down rabbit holes on ChatGPT or Wikipedia, but wish the experience was better.

Hi Product Hunt 👋 I'm Chan, the creator of Heuris.
I love casually learning about history through conversations with AI. It skips the jargon and is way easier to digest than Wikipedia articles. But I got frustrated with a few things: I always had to know what to ask, each conversation felt isolated from the last, and there was no sense of what to explore next.
Heuris fixes that. It remembers what you've explored and surfaces topics you'll actually want to learn about.
✍🏻 Here's how it works:
Pick your interests (philosophy, history, economics, psychology, art)
We curate a feed of topics designed to pull you in
Tap any topic, have a conversation, drift between related concepts
Heuris learns from what you explore and recommends what to learn next
Repeat. Your curiosity compounds.
Perfect for anyone who wants to learn more but never has time for books, and finds Wikipedia too dry to stick with.
Would love your feedback 🙏
This hits close to home! We are building a personalized product in the education space (Nuomy), and we constantly see how isolated AI chats kill the learning momentum. The way you curate a feed based on past context is very inspiring! It’s exactly the kind of continuity needed to turn a simple chatbot into a real learning partner. How do you decide which topics from the past are still relevant for the user’s current daily feed?

@valeriia_kuna The algorithm's pretty simple at this point. We track the topics you explore in each session and how much you engage with them, then use AI to suggest new topics you'd likely find interesting!
i love going down wikipedia rabbit holes but yeah the experience could be so much better. curious how you're pulling in the wikipedia data - is it through their api or are you doing something custom? also wondering if claude can cite specific wikipedia articles in the responses or if it's more of a general knowledge thing. we're working on connecting our agents to external knowledge bases and citation/source tracking has been surprisingly hard to get right. anyway this looks really polished, excited to try it out!

@victor_eth Wikipedia was a metaphor haha -- we actually don't use wikipedia to generate content, for now. But, using wikipedia links in a page to generate related topics would be an interesting idea to explore in the future. The onboarding still needs a lot of polishing but let me know how it goes! :)
@chaneeepark ah got you, and can it connect to external data sources (e.g. my kindle or notion..)?
It seems educational. I feel like it would be useful for kids!
Does Wikipedia mean that users can request edits?

@highlightyourproduct Hi Seonghun! Wikipedia was a metaphor. The contents are all ai generated using Claude!
