The best way to learn robotics is with a partner!
Meet Pip
small robot.
big possibilities.
With Pip by your side, learning feels like play: write code to solve fun challenges, and watch your ideas spring to life right before your eyes. Pip might fit in your pocket, but this tiny robot is full of big surprises!
career quest
Pip can't decide what kind of robot he wants to be — and that's where you come in! Career Quest is all about exploration and discovery. As you guide Pip through bite-sized challenges, you'll both transform from curious beginners to career experts:
Explore
Discover different career paths and see what sparks Pip's interest.
Master
Learn the sensors, skills, and concepts each career demands.
Build
Write the code that transforms Pip into whatever he dreams of becoming.
New to coding? No problem! We guide you through each step, and our AI checks your solutions for correctness.
Anyone can start Career Quest for free! But having your own Pip turns your digital mentorship into real-world transformation – that's when the magic really happens.
learn by doing
We bring Pip into the learning at every step to create an experience you won't find anywhere else. Career Quest teaches you cool concepts, and Pip shows you how they work in real life.
