How user feedback has helped BrainFeed
BrainFeed started as part of my Honors thesis at college as 'ExpoDive ', where you could simply scroll through random ideas - nothing else.
Ever since, Aasrith and I have been continuously iterating based on implicit and explicit user feedback. Here is how the product evolved into what it is today:
From Random to Intentional: Users wanted to scroll through content they actually cared about, so we introduced Learning Goals, which has now become a core product feature.
Deep Exploration: Those goals can now branch out into a Goal Tree, allowing you to naturally map out and explore complex topics.
Rich Visuals: We moved away from a text-only approach and added Images to make the feed highly engaging.
Bring Your Own Content: You can now share external media like YouTube videos, articles, and PDFs directly into BrainFeed to consume them during your spare time.
Frictionless Onboarding: We completely changed the first-time experience so new users never miss out on powerful core features.
We love iterating based on what you think. What feedback do you have for us? How can we make BrainFeed even more valuable for you?

This kinda of intentional feed is so important I feel today. No more post-doomscrolling guilt
