01 · Start Line

Syllabus in, plan out.

Drop a PDF. An AI reads the whole thing and lays out every exam, paper, and reading on your timeline.

02 · Pacer

One view, every lane.

Classes, clubs, and personal work side by side. No more flipping between five apps to know what's next.

03 · Finish Line

Distance, not dread.

A clear sense of how far you've come and how much runway is left. The semester as a race, not a shrug.

See it run · one minute, narrated

Syllabus in. Semester out.

A real 12-page syllabus becomes a dated, grade-weighted plan — then the AI coach takes a question. Let it play, or click in and drive it yourself.

01 · The view

Everydeadline,onasinglehorizon.

Marathon stitches every class, club, and personal project into one dashboard. You stop checking five apps and start running one race — and the dashboard tells you exactly where you are on the track.

02 · The engine

AIdoestheplanning.Youdotherunning.

Behind every lane in the kit is one intelligence that reads your material the way a person would — the structure, the deadlines, the weight of things — and turns it into a plan you can run. Three kinds of understanding do the heavy lifting.

Midterm · Oct 20weight 25%

Reads the fine print

It understands a syllabus.

Not just OCR. It tells an exam from a reading, catches the 25% buried in a table, and reads a due date out of a full sentence — so a messy PDF comes back structured, dated, and weighted.

Duestart this week

Plans in reverse

It works backward from the deadline.

Give it a rubric and it reasons about time — laying out a paced sequence of steps counting back from the due date, so a final paper begins as a first move this week instead of a panic the night before.

Rewrites your notes

It makes your notes studyable.

Raw lecture notes go in; a tight summary, a key-concept index, or a deck of spaced-review flashcards comes out — the same material, restructured for the way you actually study.

04 · The briefing

Questions, answered.

The things runners ask before the start gun. Something else on your mind? It probably belongs on the waitlist email thread.

Marathon is invite-only while we train with the first 50 students. and we'll email your invite as spots open — one email, no newsletter.
Free during the closed alpha. When pricing eventually lands, the first 50 hear it from us before anyone else — and nobody gets paywalled mid-semester.
No — it sits on top of them. Your syllabus goes in (PDF or pasted text), a dated plan comes out: every exam, paper, and reading on one timeline with grade weights. Your LMS stays the source of record; Marathon is where you see the whole race.
Only what you hand it — a syllabus, an assignment brief, your notes — and only to build your plan: dates, weights, subtasks, summaries. Your data isn't sold and isn't anyone's training set. The full promise lives on the Trust page.
Any school, any syllabus — Marathon isn't tied to one university or LMS. Discover (finding classmates and importing their public class plans) is per-campus, so it gets better as runners from your school join.
Yes. Classes are lanes, but so is anything with a finish line: pottery, marathon training, a side project. Personal projects get the same planning tools, minus the grade math.
Run a real semester on it and tell us where it hurts. Every tester gets a direct line to the builders — bugs, ideas, and complaints all read same-day.

Run your first semester. Free.
