Make Creating Content More Convenient
Summary
Give Users More Control Over How They Consume Content
Summary
We are focusing on complex ideas because it is a relatively unexplored space compared to shorter content, yet complex ideas are often the most powerful, valuable, and discussion-provoking ideas.
Okeebo is ideal for strategic guides, business plans, educational resources, and other informative content.
Users can control the level of detail shown as they view a piece of content, and content creators can start with a mind map and then flesh out content around that.

Hello, my name is Ben Pedersen, and I am the founder of Okeebo, a startup passionate about learning. Okeebo believes ideas and information can tremendously impact people's lives, inspiring and empowering them to follow their dreams.
Right now, there exists a wealth of ideas and information, yet people are often only able to skim the surface of it. The main exception is if a person really dedicates herself to a subject, has the right resources, and becomes an expert in that subject. Imagine though if anyone with the desire to could go from being a beginner to being an expert in any subject. And imagine if skimming and going deep weren't your only options, but you could customize your learning experiences so that you could learn as much as you want about the topics you find interesting and important.

A major challenge we see with learning: our society has a wealth of ideas and information, yet people are often only able to skim the surface of that intellectual wealth. If you want to breach the surface, you have to really commit to a subject and dive into it. Imagine though, if you could customize your learning, going precisely as deep as you want in all the topics that are interesting or important to you. Individuals having that kind of control over their learning would certainly be empowering.
Okeebo's first step to accomplishing this goal of customized learning is our website. The Okeebo website enables people to express ideas and information in a way that lets viewers control the level of detail they see.
Okeebo is a place to express and explore complex ideas and information.
At the core of Okeebo is a structure designed specifically for longer content on digital devices. This structure is nonlinear and tiered. It's similar to a mind map that's been fleshed out with summaries and explanations for each topic, subtopic, etc. This structure lets readers control the level of detail they see. Authors can also connect a single subtopic to multiple topics rather than just one. This allows them to show how all their thoughts relate to each other, in a way that's more inline with how ideas actually exist. It also lets readers customize the context in which they explore content.

As a first step towards this goal of customized learning, Okeebo has developed an ecosystem for expressing and exploring complex ideas and information.
