🟪 Open Academy — Updated Vision 2026

🟪 read

No fluff.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

🟪 Open Academy Studio — Whitelist registration is now open

Studio is our second product, a tool for creating courses. Build lessons manually or generate them with AI, publish them in Open Academy, and earn.

🟪 What's happening now
The beta runs through the end of August, with access rolling out gradually via the Whitelist. Priority goes to creators, influencers, and active community members.

🟪 What's next
After the beta, Studio will become available to everyone. Anyone will be able to create their own courses, publish them in Open Academy, and earn through a streaming model — a share of subscription revenue proportional to course completions.

🟪 Join the Whitelist: https://studio.open-academy.app/

🟪 Open Academy — May Recap

A brief overview of what we accomplished this month:

🟪 Published our updated project vision — roadmap, business model, and product overview in a single article.

🟪 Launched Open Academy Studio in beta and opened the waitlist for authors.

🟪 Rolled out the premium subscription (WEB only for now) — $9 per month. We'll be expanding it with courses and new features going forward.

🟪 Released the Guides section — authors can publish guides and embed them into their courses.

🟪 Prepared an updated brand book — a unified style and single source of truth for the project.

🟪 Created the Open Academy emoji pack — grab it here.

What's next?

🟪 Our main focus is the mobile app. In parallel, we're developing the agent system that generates courses in Studio.

🟪 Separately — the Acorn mint is coming soon. It's the first step toward the Squirrels collection and building a community of the project's early adopters. More details to follow.

🟪 Stay tuned! Work in progress...

🐿️ The Early Squirrels

When Open Academy was just an idea, you were there. You supported the project, participated in the community, collected acorns in Nuts Farm, and helped us take our very first steps. 🟪

Every acorn was a symbol of belief in the future of Open Academy. Now, those acorns are becoming something more...

We are launching The Early Squirrels — a collection of 2,750 NFT squirrels for those who chose to build alongside us instead of watching from the sidelines.

To claim 1 The Early Squirrels NFT, you will need 🌰 3 acorns.

The collection features 4 rarity tiers:

🌲 Forest Squirrel — 65%
4⃣ Guardian Squirrel — 25%
💢 Elder Squirrel — 8%
🪨 Ancient Squirrel — 2%

A squirrel is more than just an NFT. It is a unique way to take a direct part in the growth and development of the Open Academy ecosystem.

Squirrel holders will gain access to an exclusive community of early supporters, platform bonuses, and additional perks that will be introduced as the project continues to evolve.

🌰 You can already mint your acorns today.

To do so, open @nutsfarm_bot → Profile → Portfolio → NFT and send them to your TON wallet.

If you don't have enough acorns, you can purchase them on the secondary market from our collection on Getgems — link 🟪

🟪 Collection details: https://squirrels.open-academy.app

Get your acorns ready. The first squirrels will soon find their owners.

🟪 Working on a brand book sometimes leads to unexpected discoveries...

Along the way, we noticed that certain elements of the Open Academy logo transform easily into images of their own, all while keeping the same geometry and modularity.

That's how this interpretation came about: a cat assembled from parts of the letter A and the "block" inside it.

The result turned out to be an image that fairly accurately reflects the process of building Open Academy itself: a living, flexible, ever-changing constructor that evolves gradually — through experiments, iterations, mistakes, discussions, and dozens of small improvements.

🟪 And it's also a reminder that behind every product there are, after all, real people. They try, make mistakes, redo things, celebrate the lucky finds, and keep moving forward — step by step, or rather...

Heard about OpenClaw but never found the time to figure it out? 🟪

You can keep saving posts for later, watching reels of others automating their routines with agents, catching FOMO and waiting for that time to finally appear. Spoiler: it won't. 🟪

Or you can take our new course «Open Claw 101» 🟪

🟪 8 lessons, theory + practice
🟪 15 minutes and you'll have a new skill
🟪 step-by-step instructions you can save and re-read
🟪 certificate 🦀 «Open Claw Pathfinder» at the end of the course

After the course you'll have a configured agent that writes emails and posts in your style, reads and generates documents, handles your inbox and DMs, drafts replies, plans your day and even tracks your nutrition and workouts!

This isn't just ChatGPT — it's an agent with access to your files, tools and context.

🟪 On top of that, you'll understand the logic of AI agents in general, which will come in handy with other tools too.

And it's free — just launch the course and open up a whole new world of AI agents.

🟪 Start the course: WEB (DESKTOP) /// TMA (MOBILE)
