# UBT: First Month in Review
What an incredible first month it's been for the Urantia Book Tutor! As we wrap up our initial beta period, we wanted to share some key insights and developments from behind the scenes.
When we started this journey, we envisioned UBT primarily as a study tool for experienced Urantia Book readers. However, our beta testers quickly showed us something fascinating – the platform's potential extends far beyond what we initially imagined. Through thoughtful feedback from over 40 dedicated students, we discovered an opportunity to create something truly transformative: a bridge between spiritual seeking and deeper revelation study.
# Key Learnings
Our users have consistently highlighted the platform's ability to make complex concepts accessible while maintaining the depth of the teachings. The most rewarding moments came when users reported having "aha moments" about passages they'd studied for years. One particularly touching piece of feedback came from a long-time student who mentioned how UBT helped them understand difficult text in ways they hadn't before.
# Technical Progress
On the development front, our team (Kelson, Fraser, and Idan) has been hard at work refining the core experience. We've implemented secure user authentication, conversation history, and a streamlined chat interface. The focus has been on creating a reliable, intuitive foundation that can grow with our users' needs.
# Looking Ahead
We're taking a "listen first" approach to development. Rather than mapping out elaborate feature roadmaps, we're paying close attention to what our users consistently tell us they need most. We call these our "scream features" – the capabilities that multiple users urgently request. This ensures we're building what truly matters to our community.
# Join Our Journey
While we're still in beta, we welcome anyone interested in an AI-assisted experience of the Urantia Papers. Feel free to share the link with others who might benefit from this unique study companion. We're excited to see how different types of readers engage with the platform.
As we move forward, our mission remains clear: to help people develop deeper relationships with God while creating natural pathways to spiritual truth. Stay tuned for more updates as we continue this exciting journey.
