Hey Product Hunt! I'm Wei, founder of Coda. After 18 years building AI systems at Baidu as Technical Director, I faced my toughest challenge: teaching my own child to code. Traditional tutorials were too abstract—my kid would get stuck, lose interest, and I couldn't always be there to help. That's when it hit me: what if every child could have an AI tutor available 24/7, one that's patient, adapts to their pace, and makes coding feel like play? That's why we built Coda. What makes us different: AI that truly understands each child's learning style and adapts in real-time Visual block-based programming that shows immediate, tangible results Real projects kids are genuinely excited to build—games, animations, stories Personalized learning paths that adjust based on progress and challenges We'd love your feedback on: What features matter most when teaching kids to code? What concerns do you have about AI in children's education? As parents or educators, what would make this most valuable for you? Launching today and excited to hear from this community. Ask me anything!
