Project Brief

Teach.io is a SaaS startup that enables people to turn their passions into careers through a state-of-the-art, custom-built, learning platform. Teach.io was our first enrolment in our 10 steps to SaaS program. We helped construct the initial requirements doc, the architectural designs, the user interface, and the physical development of the platform. It is well built with security and privacy in mind using a number of modern, cutting-edge, technologies. The platform uses Next.js and React on the front end, is deployed via Vercel, is built on a MongoDB database, and utilises & consumes various services from AWS. It boasts a plethora of features and functionality, including a live messaging system (complete with browser notifications), an internal notification system, a course builder, profile pages, and lots more. The project is due for completion in October 2021.
