Why I built TaxoMind.

A spark: machines that learn.

final year, KUET

In my final year at KUET, I heard about AI at a conference. The idea that machines could learn caught me, and planted a seed that grew for sixteen years.

In TaxoMindThe seed TaxoMind grew from.

Top of the class. Then, the teacher.

EEE topper, lecturer at KUET

I graduated top of EEE and joined KUET as a lecturer. I went looking for AI, and found no AI course anywhere in the syllabus.

In TaxoMindLearners need a clear path, not just a syllabus.

Five platforms. Nothing connected.

So I learned AI on my own, across edX, YouTube, Coursera, Stack Overflow and docs. The content was scattered and my progress was impossible to track.

In TaxoMindOne place to learn, with progress you can see.

First in class, yet shallow.

remember, understand… and then?

Preparing for the GRE exposed it: I was first in class, yet my mathematical intuition was shallow. I rebuilt maths from first principles, and it changed how I think.

In TaxoMindDepth over recall: understanding, not memorised steps.

Hundreds of tutorials. Nothing built.

Back to AI, I hit another wall. EEE gave me C; AI demanded Python. I watched hundreds of tutorials, but building anything real felt impossible.

In TaxoMindIt measures what you can do, not what you watched.

A funded PhD. Then COVID.

flights booked

I won a fully funded PhD in computing in the USA. The flights were booked. Then COVID struck, the plan was cancelled, and I went back to teaching at KUET.

In TaxoMindThe question stayed with me in the classroom.

The hollow had a name.

“THIS is the hollow I’ve been feeling.”

Locked down during COVID, I saw the gap, and it had a name: Bloom’s Taxonomy. My years of learning had climbed only its two lowest rungs.

In TaxoMindThe idea: a platform that guides you up all six levels.

A new country. TaxoMind beside the PhD.

research, coursework, teaching, and code

I left Bangladesh after 12 years for a PhD in the US, and built TaxoMind beside research, coursework and teaching. AI coding tools turned weeks of work into days.

In TaxoMindThe first version of TaxoMind ships.

The mentor I wished I had.

Sixteen years of learning, teaching and building, in one platform: an AI mentor that guides every learner up all six levels of Bloom’s Taxonomy.

In TaxoMindSAM, the AI mentor, guides you from remember to create.
