EdTech apps fail when they focus on content and forget the learner. We build education products that keep users engaged and progressing.
No obligation. 45 minutes. We will map out what your EdTech product needs.
Most EdTech apps have a completion rate problem. Users sign up, do a lesson or two, and disappear. The content is not the issue — the product experience is. If the app does not create a habit loop, users will not come back. We design learning experiences around the behavioural patterns that actually drive completion.
The best education apps feel more like games than textbooks. Short lessons, immediate feedback, visible progress, and clear goals all contribute to learners forming a habit. We build these mechanics into the product architecture from the start rather than layering them in as features after launch.
Education has multiple stakeholders. A learner wants to feel like they are making progress. A parent wants visibility. An institution wants reporting and compliance. Each stakeholder has different needs and different screens. We help you prioritise who to design for first and build the others without creating technical debt.
The subscription model works for EdTech when the product delivers visible outcomes. Learners who see measurable improvement renew. Learners who feel stuck churn. We design assessment and progress tracking to make improvement visible and tangible, which directly impacts your monthly recurring revenue.
From self-paced learning platforms to live tutoring marketplaces, here is what we build most often in the education space.
We build online learning platforms, tutoring marketplaces, corporate training tools, exam preparation apps, skills assessment platforms, and micro-learning products. The common thread is that they all need strong content delivery, progress tracking, and enough engagement design to keep users coming back.
An EdTech app with course delivery, progress tracking, and subscription billing typically costs between $80,000 and $250,000. Platforms with live tutoring, complex assessment tools, or institutional integrations sit at the higher end. We scope everything in Inception and give you a fixed price before development starts.
Completion rates are the primary product metric for any education app. We design onboarding flows, learning streaks, progress milestones, and notification strategies to maintain engagement. The product architecture matters as much as the content — short lessons, clear progress indicators, and low-friction habit loops all contribute to better completion rates.
A well-scoped education app typically takes 14 to 20 weeks from first call to launch. The timeline depends on the complexity of the content delivery system, assessment tools, and whether you need live video or are working with pre-recorded content.
Yes. For most education platforms, we build a web app that works well on desktop and tablet, plus mobile apps for iOS and Android. The priority depends on your learner behaviour. If your users are mostly learning on phones during commutes, mobile-first makes sense. If they are doing deep work at desks, web-first is often better.
We integrate with video hosting platforms like Mux or Vimeo for adaptive video streaming. These platforms handle transcoding, adaptive bitrate streaming, and CDN delivery so your videos load fast and play well on any connection. You upload content to an admin panel and it becomes available to learners immediately.
We offer a free 45-minute Game Plan session for education founders with a serious product idea. We will look at your learner audience, content model, and tell you what it would take to build something people actually complete.
