Making a good lesson takes time: outlining, building slides, writing quizzes, and finding ways to practise. OpenMAIC (Open Multi-Agent Interactive Classroom) automates that. You give it a topic or attach materials, and it builds a lesson you can play through.

Several AI agents take part in the lesson. Some act as teachers and some as classmates. They speak aloud, draw on a whiteboard, and discuss the material with you in real time. Lessons can include slides, quizzes, interactive HTML simulations, and project-based learning. Version 1.0 added an agent workbench, a chat workspace where an agent plans a course, builds each page, and revises it using your uploaded documents, audio or video.

It is provider-neutral: you bring your own language models, media, search and storage. It is a Next.js and TypeScript app, and the README lists LangGraph among its tools. It also ships a SKILL.md skill, so agent tools such as OpenClaw and Codex can generate classrooms for you. There is a live demo and a Vercel deploy button.

## What it does

- **One-click lesson generation**: Describe a topic or attach materials, and the AI builds a full lesson. The README says this takes minutes.
- **Multi-agent classroom**: AI teachers and classmates lecture, discuss and respond to you in real time. Classroom chat can reference a slide element or a whiteboard drawing.
- **Several scene types**: Lessons can include slides, quizzes, interactive HTML simulations and project-based learning. Release notes also mention 3D visualisation, games, mind maps and online programming.
- **Whiteboard and voice**: Agents draw diagrams, write formulas and explain out loud using text-to-speech.
- **Export and agent skill**: Download editable .pptx slides or interactive .html pages. The bundled OpenMAIC Skill lets OpenClaw, Codex and similar tools generate classrooms.

## What you could build

- Generate a complete interactive lesson on a topic you want to learn.
- Turn a PDF or lecture notes into slides, quizzes and a guided walkthrough.
- Export a generated lesson as an editable .pptx deck for your own class.
- Self-host a classroom tool with your own LLM provider and storage.
- Ask an agent tool in Slack, Telegram or your IDE to teach you a subject through the OpenMAIC skill.

## Who it's for

Suits learners, teachers and developers who want AI-generated interactive lessons; self-hosting needs Node.js 22.19 or newer and an LLM provider API key.

## Get started

The easiest way to try it is the live demo at open.maic.chat, or get a hosted access code for the agent skill. To self-host, you need Node.js 22.19 or newer and at least one LLM provider key. The README excerpt cuts off before the install commands, so follow its Quick Start section.
