Prodeus is a Chrome extension designed to track and quantify self-education by counting the hours spent engaging with educational videos on platforms such as Youtube, Coursera, and Codeacademy. It aims to foster equal access to higher education irrespective of wealth, status, or nationality by allowing users to accumulate 'class hours' and earn degrees across various disciplines. Features include creating quizzes, taking notes, and building custom learning paths. The focus is on learner-led education, and class quality is ensured through peer reviews.

great idea, but for some reason whenver i download it on Chrome current version, it uses all my CPU & disk and i have to terminate chrome and have to disable it, hope it's just a bug and not some kind of scheme.

I've been using Prodeus for moths now and I really like it! But sadly with few of latest updates to Chrome the extension has started to have some serious problems. I re-installed an older version of Chrome, but that's not really a sustainable solution in the long run. I really hope they fix the problems soon.

The app sounds very promising and helpful but i cant get it to work, the extension requires me to log in and upon pressing log it it takes me to log in web page, i am logging it and the extension still requires me to login :(
