The problems we solve
- Two-sided marketplace bootstrapping — Instructor supply and student demand must grow in lockstep.
- Discovery and conversion — Without great search and recommendations, GMV stalls.
- Payouts and tax — Multi-country payouts, VAT/GST, and 1099/1042-S filings are operationally heavy.
What's included
- Instructor onboarding & studio — KYC, course authoring, live, drip, and analytics dashboards.
- Search, ranking & recommendations — Hybrid search with embeddings + personalized for-you feed.
- Payouts with Stripe Connect — Split payments, withholding, and transparent revenue share.
- Mobile apps — iOS, Android, AirPlay, Chromecast, and download-for-offline.
