How content is structured
Content in Fayne follows a four-level hierarchy:Lesson
One focused piece of learning content. A lesson can combine writing, media, questions, downloads, and interactive blocks. A knowledge check is a graded lesson.
Course
A sequence of lessons in a logical progression, optionally grouped into modules. For example, “Cold Outreach Mastery.”
Track
A group of related courses covering a domain, such as the Sales Mastery Track or the Leadership Track.
Academy
Your complete branded product. What students see as one unified destination at your URL.
Browse and add courses from the library
1
Open Explore
In your owner dashboard, click Explore in the left sidebar. Courses are organized by Track. You can filter by Track or search by keyword.
2

3
Add a course to your academy
Click Add to my academy on any course detail page. The course appears in your academy immediately. Students can see and start it once you publish it.
The Explore library and your copy
When you add a course, Fayne copies its content into your academy as your own private version. This is what lets you customize freely. Here is how it works:- Adding a course copies its content into your academy. From that moment, every lesson is your own copy. You edit it in place, by hand or with AI.
- Your edits never touch the Library or any other academy. Each academy has its own independent copies.
- Library improvements apply to future additions only. When Fayne improves a course in the Explore library, those updates flow into academies that add the course afterward. Courses already in your academy are not changed.
Copies are made per lesson when you add a course. Every lesson in an added course is an independent copy that you own and can edit.
Organize your catalog with collections
Collections group and order courses in your catalog. They help students browse by topic, but they never decide who can open a course.1
Open Courses
Go to Courses. Your course board is grouped by collection. Courses that are not in a collection appear under More courses.
2
Create a collection
Click Create collection, add a name and optional description, then save.
3
Move a course
Open the course’s menu, choose Move to collection, then pick the destination.
4
Reorder everything
Click Organize courses. Drag courses within or between collections, reorder the collections themselves, then save.
5
Choose each collection's layout
Each collection can display as a grid or a slider in the student catalog. Mix them to give big flagship collections room and keep smaller ones compact.
Collections organize the catalog only. To control access, set a course to Free, Paid, or Members-only, or include it in an offer.
The course menu
Each course card on the Courses page has a menu with everything you can do to the course as a whole:Course settings
Opens the course’s settings dialog (see Course settings below) without opening the editor.
Edit thumbnail
Opens the course settings on the Design tab, where you set the cover image and thumbnail.
Duplicate
Creates a content-only copy in the same academy, named with “(copy)”, as a draft with your default access setting. Lessons, thumbnail, collection, and certificate settings come along; enrollments, pricing, and progress do not. Use it to build a new version of a course without touching the live one.
Copy to academy
Shown when you own more than one academy. Pick a destination and the course is copied there as a draft, keeping its title. The collection is dropped because collections belong to each academy. The success toast offers Undo for a moment in case of a mis-click.
Move to collection
Put the course in a collection, or take it out.
Delete
Removes the course. Students who are already enrolled lose access immediately.
Course settings
Open a course in the editor and click the gear in the top bar to reach its settings dialog. The tabs are:
Next to the gear, the chart icon (Course insights) opens the course’s own analytics, including quiz and knowledge-check results. See Analytics.
Structure the lessons
Inside the editor, the lesson sidebar is where you shape the course:- Add lesson creates a blank lesson. The chevron next to it also offers Add knowledge check and Add module.
- Modules group lessons into named chapters that show on the course page and in the lesson viewer.
- Knowledge checks are graded quiz lessons with a pass mark that can lock the lessons after them.
- Drag lessons to reorder them. Lessons with a video or a check show an icon in the list.
Build your own course
You are not limited to the pre-built courses in the library. You can create your own course from scratch and write its lessons, by hand or with AI, or generate a whole course from a brief.Courses in the works
At the top of the Courses page, the In the works row holds courses that aren’t finished courses yet:- Drafts: courses Fayne is generating right now, with their status (“Drafting the outline”, “Outline ready for your review”, “Writing lesson 3 of 8”). Click Continue or Follow along to open the generation screen.
- Briefs: the other courses Fayne planned for your academy during setup (see Quickstart). Each brief shows the course’s title, its promise, and how many lessons it plans.
Set what students will learn
Each course detail page shows a “What you’ll learn” box. By default it lists your course’s lesson titles. To make the promise sharper, open the course’s detail page editor and write your own learning points: add, edit, or reorder them as plain lines. Students and your preview see your version in place of the lesson titles. If you ever want the default back, use Reset to lesson titles.Can I write a lesson from scratch?
Can I write a lesson from scratch?
Yes. Inside any course, click Add lesson to open the block editor with a blank canvas. You can write entirely original lessons, use AI to help draft them, and mix them freely with library lessons in the same course.

What happens to my edits if Fayne improves a course in the Explore Library?
Nothing. The lessons in your academy are your own copies. Improvements Fayne makes to the Explore Library apply only to courses added after the update. Courses already in your academy stay exactly as you left them.
