# Bitty Course

> Small, affordable software for hosting and selling a video course. Creators upload lessons, arrange them, set a price and share one link; students buy, watch and resume. Creators can also build and manage courses from an AI assistant over MCP or with the `bitty` CLI.

Every page below is Markdown. The whole set is in one file at https://bittycourse.com/llms-full.txt.
