Dr. Malitha Wickramasinghe
Senior Lecturer, Faculty of IT
★★★★★

"I had 14 weeks of notes jotted down on paper. Typed them in, clicked Generate, and had a proper syllabus in under two minutes. The auto-detection of midterm and exam weeks saved so much time."

SJ
Sanduni Jayawardena
Visiting Lecturer
★★★★★

"Every semester I dreaded creating the course outline. Now I paste my topics from my lecture plan spreadsheet, add outcomes for each week, and share the PDF with students on day one."

NK
Nuwan Kumara
Module Coordinator
★★★★★

"The week-type colour coding is exactly what our faculty board requires. Revision and exam weeks are clearly differentiated in the printed document, which makes scheduling discussions much easier."

Ishani Perera
Course Designer
★★★★☆

"We now use this for all new course submissions. The format is clean enough for the academic senate and easy enough that any lecturer can use it without training."
