Education & learning platforms
Learning products where the hard parts are the ones nobody demos: progress that survives a dropped connection, assessments that cannot be gamed from the console, video delivery that does not bankrupt you, and instructor tooling good enough that your educators stop emailing spreadsheets.
What you get
The outcomes we hold ourselves to on this work. If we cannot commit to them for your project, we say so during scoping rather than after the invoice.
- Progress and completion tracked reliably across devices
- Assessment logic enforced server-side, not in the browser
- Video delivered at a cost per learner you can predict
- Instructors self-serve instead of filing tickets
Deliverables
Everything on this list is handed over and documented. Anything outside it is quoted before it is built.
- Course, lesson, cohort and enrolment model
- Progress tracking with offline tolerance
- Quizzes, assignments and grading workflows
- Video pipeline with adaptive streaming and DRM options
- Instructor and admin dashboards
- Certificates, reporting and learner analytics
Typical timeline
Most engagements of this type run 6–16 weeks end to end. Step four absorbs the difference between the short and long end of that range.
Discovery call
30 minutes, freeWe walk through what you are building, who it is for, and what has to be true for the project to count as a success. You leave with a rough scope, a rough number and an honest read on whether we are the right team.
You receive: Written scope summary within 24 hours
Proposal & fixed scope
2–3 daysA written proposal: milestones, deliverables, timeline, price and explicit exclusions. No hourly surprises — you approve a scope, and changes to it are quoted before any work starts.
You receive: Proposal, contract and milestone schedule
Architecture & design
Week 1Data model, API contracts and infrastructure plan on paper before code. UI work starts in Figma so you approve screens rather than reviewing half-built pages.
You receive: Architecture doc, ER diagram, approved designs
Build in weekly sprints
Bulk of the projectWorking software every week on a staging URL you can click through. A short written update each Friday: what shipped, what is next, anything blocking. You are never guessing where the project stands.
You receive: Staging environment, weekly demo and written update
Test, harden & launch
Final 1–2 weeksAutomated tests in CI, load and failure-path testing, security review, performance budgets, then a rehearsed deploy with a rollback plan. Launch day is uneventful by design.
You receive: Test suite, CI pipeline, production deployment
Handover & support
OngoingDocumentation, a recorded walkthrough and a 30-day warranty on everything we shipped. If you want us to keep operating it, a maintenance retainer picks up from there.
You receive: Docs, walkthrough video, 30-day warranty
Questions we get asked
- Should we use an off-the-shelf LMS?
- If your content fits a standard course-and-quiz shape, yes — Teachable or Thinkific will beat a custom build on cost. Custom is worth it when the learning model is the product: adaptive paths, cohort mechanics, simulations, or assessment you need to defend.
- How do you keep video costs down?
- Adaptive bitrate, aggressive CDN caching, and encoding tiers matched to what learners actually watch on. We model the monthly cost at your expected learner count before building.
