RAG wrapper for Stanford notes when Perplexity already indexes the web.

Strengths
  • Citations back to source PDFs ensure traceability for technical claims.
  • Pre-loaded with canonical CS229 curriculum removes setup friction.
Weaknesses
  • Generic RAG architecture offers no technical differentiation from existing tools.
  • Limited to a single course rather than a broader educational platform.

Post Description

CS229 is one of the most widely referenced machine learning courses.

I turned the complete course notes into a searchable knowledge base with citations back to the original source material.

The goal is to make long technical documents easier to explore without losing traceability.
