FAQ
Questions about TeachCurrent
Short, direct answers about supported files, course topics, evidence and access — written from what the product actually does today.
- What can I upload?
- Lesson transcripts as SRT, VTT or plain text. SRT and VTT keep the timestamps you supplied; TXT is untimed, so findings reference passages instead of moments. TeachCurrent does not transcribe audio or video, and does not read slides or screenshots.
- Which platforms are supported?
- Shopify, Notion and Webflow, with more to come. For Shopify, checking covers theme architecture — layouts, templates and sections; other Shopify areas such as checkout, apps and admin workflows are not covered.
- Couldn't I just use ChatGPT to check my course?
- Yes. ChatGPT can help review a transcript and suggest corrections. TeachCurrent organizes that work around your courses: identifying affected lessons, showing supporting evidence, preparing replacement wording, and tracking updates through completion.
- What does TeachCurrent show me?
- Three things: what needs correcting, which lesson it affects, and what to update. Each finding connects the issue to a lesson passage, with a timestamp when your uploaded transcript includes one.
- Where do the recommendations come from?
- TeachCurrent compares supported lesson topics against selected official platform documentation. You can inspect the evidence behind a finding before deciding whether to use the recommendation.
- Will TeachCurrent write the replacement wording for me?
- TeachCurrent can prepare suggested replacement wording and check it against the supporting documentation. You can review and edit it before using it. If the evidence doesn't support a reliable replacement, TeachCurrent tells you rather than presenting an unsupported answer as ready to use.
- Does TeachCurrent update my published course automatically?
- No. You stay in control. Review the suggested wording, make the change in your course, and mark the update completed in TeachCurrent. Saving a draft or approving an update does not change your published lesson.
- How does TeachCurrent help me keep track of the work?
- Updates are organized into Needs review, Planned, and Completed. This gives you a clear record of what still needs attention and what you've already addressed.
- Does TeachCurrent check everything in my course?
- No. Checks are limited to supported topics and the documentation available for comparison. TeachCurrent identifies coverage gaps and uncertain results so you can distinguish a supported finding from something that needs further review.
- Does “no issue found” mean my lesson is completely accurate?
- No. It means the check did not identify a supported issue within its coverage. It is not a guarantee that every statement is accurate or that the entire lesson is up to date.
- What is the difference between a finding and a change?
- An initial comparison shows where your lesson differs from documentation as it reads today, including differences that are years old. An observed source change is a separate, dated event. Either way, a changed documentation page is not proof that software behaviour changed.
- Can anyone run checks?
- Not yet. Real analysis runs under private development access while coverage is proven. Scheduled monitoring is built but currently switched off, and there are no email notifications today.
- What does it cost?
- The plan is $9.99 a month with 25 included credits, and a 100-credit top-up pack is $35 one-time. See the Pricing page for the full breakdown of what a credit covers.
