I asked ChatGPT to write the query for me but it does not work 😭 can you take a look?
SELECT region, SUM(total_sales)
FROM orders
WHERE MONTH(date) = MONTH(NOW())
GROUP BY region
✕ ERROR: function month() does not exist
I do not understand what it generated either 😅

The problem

Why most people stay stuck

SQL is everywhere — marketing, finance, product, ops. Yet two realities sabotage the people who want to progress.

In the workplace

Without solid SQL, you are dependent.

Every team works with data. Those who cannot query it themselves carry a dependency that is invisible, expensive and frustrating.

  • Waiting on a data analyst for every extract, however simple.
  • Badly written queries — and decisions made on wrong numbers.
  • Opportunities missed for not being seen as “data-driven”.
  • Hours lost debugging joins and aggregations.
Conventional training

They teach you to play. Not to work.

Made-up datasets, exercises detached from reality: you finish the module — and stall at the first real business problem.

  • Artificial data with no bearing on your industry.
  • Quizzes that test memory, not skill.
  • No feedback on the performance or readability of your code.
  • “40 hours of lessons and still unable to write a report.”

What they say

My grasp of joins was really shaky. Two weeks of missions in the e-commerce universe and I finally understand the difference between LEFT JOIN and INNER JOIN — and, above all, when to use which.

The AI feedback is remarkable. It does not just hand you the right answer, it explains why your query is suboptimal and how to improve it. Like having a mentor available around the clock.

What sold me was the SaaS universe. Every metric — MRR, churn, LTV — is a query I genuinely write at work. Concrete at last, not abstract exercises.

I am a financial controller. Nobody ever told me SQL would be useful to me. Today I pull my own data from our warehouse without depending on the BI team. An enormous time saver.

I had tried several MOOCs before. I always finished the modules without being able to write a real query on my own. Here, the finance universe scenario threw me straight in.

The concept of the day helped me most. Five minutes each morning on one precise idea, with an exercise behind it. In a month I closed every blind spot I had on window functions.

Frequently asked questions

FAQ

Is the platform free?+

Yes, you can start free with no card. The trial lets you try the missions and the concept catalogue before choosing a plan.

I have never written SQL. Where do I start?+

At sign-up, an adaptive quiz detects your level (even if it is zero) and builds a path to fit. You will start with the fundamentals and move on from there.

What is the difference between a mission and a concept?+

A concept is a learning sheet on one precise piece of SQL (GROUP BY, INNER JOIN, and so on). A mission is a practical exercise generated by the AI inside your industry universe, drawing on several concepts at once.

Which SQL dialect is used?+

Exercises run on PostgreSQL — the most widespread standard in industry. The concepts also cover MySQL and BigQuery where they differ.

Can I change industry universe along the way?+

Yes, you can change your universe from your profile at any time. Your SQL progress is kept; only future exercises move to the new universe.

How does the AI feedback work?+

After each submission the AI reviews your query: result, readability, performance and good practice. It pinpoints the mistake or the thing to improve — and explains how to fix it.
