# Inbox Academy > Inbox Academy delivers courses over email. An organization writes lessons and quizzes in a web app; its learners receive them on a schedule and answer from their inbox, with no app to install and nothing to log into. Course providers sign in to write courses, enrol learners and read progress. Learners never do — everything reaches them as email. Course content can also be read and authored programmatically, over the HTTP API or the MCP server listed below. ## Start here - [Home](https://inboxacademy.io/): What the product does, who it is for, and pricing. - [What an email course is](https://inboxacademy.io/email-courses/): The format itself: what an email course is made of, how the per-learner schedule works, and when the format does not fit. - [Employee onboarding by email](https://inboxacademy.io/solutions/employee-onboarding/): Running new-hire onboarding as a sequence timed from each person's start date. - [Customer onboarding by email](https://inboxacademy.io/solutions/customer-onboarding/): Onboarding customers with a course rather than a drip campaign, and what the difference buys. - [Guide](https://inboxacademy.io/guide/): The product documentation, written for course providers. Every page of it is listed below. - [Blog](https://inboxacademy.io/blog/): Writing about email-based courses and about the product. ## API and MCP - [API documentation](https://inboxacademy.io/docs/api/): Reference for the organization API, which is authenticated with an API key issued from the web app. - [OpenAPI schema](https://inboxacademy.io/learning/api/v1/openapi.json): The machine-readable description of that API. - [MCP server](https://mcp.inboxacademy.io): Streamable-HTTP Model Context Protocol endpoint for reading and authoring course content: list courses and lessons, read a lesson, create and update lessons, create quizzes. Authenticates with OAuth and is scoped to the organizations the signed-in user belongs to and their role in each. Anything it creates lands unpublished for a person to review, and there is no delete. - [OAuth authorization server metadata](https://inboxacademy.io/.well-known/oauth-authorization-server): Discovery document for that OAuth flow. ## Guide: Getting started From creating your organization to watching your first lesson arrive in your own inbox. - [What Inbox Academy is, and how an email course works](https://inboxacademy.io/guide/what-is-inbox-academy/): Inbox Academy delivers courses by email, one lesson at a time, on each learner's own schedule.

Here is where each one appears. - [Your public organization page](https://inboxacademy.io/guide/your-public-organization-page/): The page learners land on before they enroll: your branding, every course open for sign-up, and your newsletters.

What to put in the title, what the platform adds around your writing, and how to set when it arrives. - [Add a quiz](https://inboxacademy.io/guide/add-a-quiz/): Questions, answers, the passing score, and the settings that decide what happens to a learner who does not pass. - [Add an assignment](https://inboxacademy.io/guide/add-an-assignment/): Assignments ask a learner to send something back, and a person to read it. What to set, and what happens while the course waits. - [Reorder lessons, quizzes and assignments](https://inboxacademy.io/guide/reorder-course-content/): The order of your content is the course. How to change it, and why reordering a course that already has learners in it needs care. ## Guide: Learners and enrollment How people join a course, what you can see while they are on it, and how an enrollment ends. - [How learners enroll from your public page](https://inboxacademy.io/guide/how-learners-enroll/): What a learner actually does to join a course, the confirmation step in the middle, and why enrollment is sometimes refused. - [Add learners yourself](https://inboxacademy.io/guide/add-learners-yourself/): Enrolling someone directly, what it skips compared with the public form, and the responsibility that comes with skipping it. ## Guide: Email delivery Where your emails come from, and what learners can do without leaving their inbox. - [Where your course emails are sent from](https://inboxacademy.io/guide/where-emails-are-sent-from/): Course emails can arrive from Inbox Academy or under your own organization's name.

Here's how to close that gap with a two-step Zap. - [AMP for Email: what it is, where it works, and what it takes to send](https://inboxacademy.io/blog/amp-for-email/): Most email is static. Whatever the sender put in the message at the moment of sending is what the reader sees, however long afterwards they open it. Anything interactive, a form, a poll, a booking, a current price, means leaving the inbox for a browser. ## Optional - [Terms](https://inboxacademy.io/terms/): Which terms apply to whom. - [Terms for learners](https://inboxacademy.io/learners-terms/) - [Terms for course providers](https://inboxacademy.io/providers-terms/) - [Privacy policy](https://inboxacademy.io/privacy/) - [Sitemap](https://inboxacademy.io/sitemap.xml): Every public page, including the course and organization pages this file does not list.
