“here we connect and innovate”
The workspace where things get built.
Tools, infrastructure, and hands-on help for research, prototyping, and shipping real ideas — free to start, built alongside a community.
Built on proven technology, not vibe-coded apps
Everything on LearnHive Labs runs on well-established, rigorously tested, and widely acclaimed open-source technology — chosen to genuinely support education, research, and development, not to show off a quick AI-generated prototype. We share our technology stack transparently, including exactly where and how AI is used, so you always know what you’re getting — and where a little extra caution is warranted.

All simulations in this library are provided by PhET Interactive Simulations, a nonprofit project of the University of Colorado Boulder. LearnHive Labs did not create these simulations — we research, curate, optimize, host, organize, and present them for easier classroom use, and we’re grateful for PhET’s work making free, research-based STEM simulations available to educators everywhere. Used here in accordance with PhET’s attribution requirements for HTML5 simulations: “PhET Interactive Simulations, University of Colorado Boulder, https://phet.colorado.edu”.

Research, Prototyping & Development Tools
Real, hosted tools to run your research, design your product, and automate the busywork — free to use, set up with you.
Learning Infrastructure
Canvas LMS
A full course platform — hosted for you, free of charge — for structuring your research group’s training, onboarding new members, or running a study cohort with real assignments and progress tracking.
- Course & module structure, ready to use
- Assignment tracking and grading
- Hosted and maintained by LearnHive
Monitoring & Observability
Grafana + Prometheus
Free, hosted dashboards for watching your experiments and infrastructure in real time — track model runs, pipeline health, or research data collection without building monitoring from scratch.
- Live metric dashboards
- Alerts when something breaks
- No infrastructure setup on your end
Design & Prototyping
Figma
Design your product, research poster, or app mockup in a shared, real-time canvas — sketch an idea in the morning and have a teammate refining it by afternoon.
- Real-time collaborative design
- Prototype interactive flows
- Share directly with your research group
AI-Assisted Automation
n8n Workflow Management
Automate the repetitive parts of your research or project — connect OpenAI, Firebase, Gmail, Sheets, and dozens of other tools into a workflow that runs itself. We help you design and build it.
- Connects OpenAI, Firebase, Gemini & more
- Built with you, not just for you
- From a simple automation to a full agent pipeline
02 — Share
Technical Marketing
Your work deserves an audience. We help you show it, properly.
YouTube & Instagram
Guided support to turn your research, product, or project into a real demo — filming, editing, and posting, framed properly so it actually showcases the work instead of just documenting it.
Reddit, Medium & Discord
Share your research, product, or idea where the right people are already talking — genuine community posting and content, not a generic press release nobody reads.
03 — Run
Infrastructure & IT Setup Help
The unglamorous part, handled — so your research stays online and running.
Hosting, Tools & Network Setup
Hands-on help getting your site, research tools, or lab network actually running — domain setup, hosting configuration, and the infrastructure decisions that are easy to get wrong the first time.
Featured Build
Hosted, Scalable & Secure Communities
Built on popular, open-source, and licensed platforms with an established track record across research and education deployments — not experimental or unproven tooling. Deployed as single-site or multi-site infrastructure, sized for 200–700 registered users per instance, and engineered for both steady low-traffic use and high-concurrency periods such as cohort logins, live sessions, or exam windows.
Platform options — established for years in research & education deployments
Infrastructure layer
A custom, in-house build — assembled entirely from proven, licensed, and open-source components with long deployment histories. No unproven or experimental tooling.

Agentic AI for Your Custom Use Case
Not a template — a tool built around what you actually need. Here’s a sample of what’s already running.
We build the AI agent your project actually needs.
Every research group and student team hits a different bottleneck. Instead of forcing you into one generic assistant, we design and build a working agent around your specific workflow — from a research coordination tool to a full learning assistant. A few examples already in use below.
Collaborative Study
Research Board
Collaborative research workspace with shared whiteboards, citation management, and real-time team coordination for academic projects.
- Shared digital whiteboards
- Citation management
- Real-time collaboration
- Research timeline tracking
Career Development
Portfolio Builder
AI-powered resume and portfolio builder that automatically generates professional profiles from your academic and project data.
- Automated resume generation
- Portfolio templates
- Skills assessment
- Industry-specific formats
Team Collaboration
Project Management App
Streamlined project management tool designed for student teams with task delegation, progress tracking, and deadline management.
- Task delegation system
- Progress visualization
- Deadline reminders
- Team communication hub
Multimedia Learning
Audio, Video, Text Conceptualization
Convert lecture videos to structured learning plans. Upload to YouTube and get comprehensive learning lessons.
- Lecture video to learning plan conversion
- YouTube integration
- Structured lesson generation
- On-demand availability only
Learning Strategy
MindSage Learning Planner
Node-based learning simplification tool that breaks down complex subjects into manageable, interconnected learning modules.
- Node-based learning paths
- Complexity breakdown

Full-fledged instruction and student assistant that converts topics, coding questions, and assignments into structured guides. For instructors: create learning plans for any study topic with RAG and KB support.
- Topic to structured guide conversion
- Coding question explanations
- Assignment breakdown
- RAG and KB support (Premium)

Android & iOS App Building for Education
From simple, reliable non-AI tools to fully agentic, adaptive apps — built for the specific learning problem you’re solving.
Gamified Learning
Points, Streaks & Quest-Based Apps
Turn a subject into a game — XP, levels, badges, and quests that make practice feel like play. Built either as a fixed-rule reward system, or as an agent that adapts difficulty and pacing to the learner in real time.
- Agentic option: adaptive difficulty & personalized quests
- Non-AI option: fixed reward/level system, fully predictable
- Leaderboards, streak tracking, achievement badges
Habit Building
Daily Study & Practice Habit Apps
Helps a learner actually show up daily — streak tracking, gentle reminders, and progress visualization. An agentic version times nudges around each learner’s real behavior; a non-AI version runs on simple, transparent scheduled reminders.
- Agentic option: nudges timed to each learner’s real patterns
- Non-AI option: fixed reminder schedule, no data modeling
- Streak calendars, daily check-ins, gentle accountability
Special Education Support
Accessibility-First Learning Tools
Visual schedules, communication boards, text-to-speech, and pacing built around each learner’s actual needs. We deliberately favor non-AI, fully predictable tools here by default — introducing agentic personalization only when a family or educator specifically wants it.
- Non-AI by default: predictable, consistent, low sensory load
- Agentic option: personalized pacing, only when explicitly requested
- Visual schedules, AAC-style communication support, text-to-speech
