We build mobile learning management apps for Canadian tutoring centres, coaching institutes (IELTS, PTE, GMAT, SAT), online educators, and K-12 supplementary schools. Student app for lessons and quizzes, instructor dashboard for content authoring, Stripe subscription billing, video streaming, and progress tracking — App Store ready in 10–14 weeks at roughly half the cost of typical Canadian ed-tech vendors.
Toronto is Canada's largest city and the economic engine of the country, anchoring Bay Street's financial district, the MaRS Discovery District tech corridor, and one of the most diverse populations on earth. Indo-Canadian businesses thrive along Gerrard India Bazaar, in Etobicoke, and across the downtown core — running everything from immigration law practices to D2C food brands and Series-A SaaS startups serving the GTA's 6.5 million residents.
Canada’s ed-tech and tutoring market is growing rapidly, driven by newcomer immigration (over 450,000 new permanent residents per year) and the IELTS / PTE / CELPIP test-prep demand that comes with it. Major test-prep institutes — Touchstone Educationals, Western Overseas, and others — operate dozens of Brampton, Surrey, and Toronto locations and have begun shifting to hybrid in-person + mobile delivery. K-12 supplementary tutoring (Kumon, Spirit of Math, Mathnasium, OxfordLearning) and online creator-led courses round out the market. The dominant LMS vendors are Teachable, Thinkific (Vancouver-based, IPO’d 2021), Kajabi, and Podia for creators; Moodle and Canvas for institutional. Mobile-first delivery is increasingly expected, especially for newcomer-focused IELTS prep where students study on Toronto Transit Commission and TransLink commutes. Apple App Store treats educational content sales carefully: if you sell course access inside the app, Apple typically requires in-app purchase (15–30% take); to avoid this, most ed-tech apps sell course access on web (Stripe direct) and let students consume via the app without sales happening in-app — the so-called "reader" pattern Apple permits. Stripe handles recurring CAD subscriptions and one-time purchases. PIPEDA governs student data; COPPA (US) and provincial privacy laws (PHIPA, PIPA) apply if you serve under-13 students. French localization for Quebec is increasingly important. Single-creator course apps ship in 8–10 weeks; multi-instructor academies with cohort messaging and live class take 12–16.
Courses broken into modules and lessons, lesson content (video, PDF, text, interactive), per-lesson quizzes with auto-grading and explanations, and module completion gates. IELTS / PTE / GMAT mock-test mode with timed sections and scored bands. Saves student progress per device and resumes mid-lesson on return.
Lesson videos streamed via Mux, Cloudflare Stream, or Vimeo at adaptive bitrate so they work on a student’s mobile data in transit. Download-for-offline lets students watch lessons on a flight to India or in a basement apartment with weak wifi. DRM-light protection prevents casual screen-record sharing.
Instructors create courses, upload videos, build quizzes (multiple choice, short answer, drag-and-drop), set release schedules (drip content), and message cohorts. View per-student progress, quiz scores, time spent per lesson, and cohort completion rates. Reuse content across cohorts without re-uploading.
Monthly subscription access (CAD 49/month for unlimited courses), per-course one-time purchase (CAD 199 for IELTS prep), cohort-based pricing (CAD 999 for 8-week live cohort), and family / sibling discounts. Stripe handles recurring billing, dunning, and Apple Pay / Google Pay sign-up. GST/HST per province.
Live class integration via Zoom, Google Meet, or in-app WebRTC (Daily.co), with attendance tracking and post-class recording auto-published to the lesson library. Cohort chat for student-to-student and student-to-instructor questions. Office-hours booking for 1:1 sessions.
Per-student dashboard with completion percent, mock-test band scores, and weekly time-on-app. Optional leaderboard for cohort gamification. Auto-generated PDF certificates on course completion, downloadable in the app. Parental progress reports for K-12 tutoring sent weekly.
Yes. We build mobile learning apps for Canadian institutes and educators including those operating in Toronto — with offline lesson download for newcomer students studying on transit, Stripe CAD subscriptions, IELTS / PTE / CELPIP mock-test mode for test-prep centres serving Toronto, and French localization for Quebec markets. Live in 10–14 weeks. WhatsApp +91-9277-184-741 to scope your Toronto institute.
It depends on where the sale happens. If students buy course access on your website via Stripe and just consume in the app, Apple takes 0% (the "reader" pattern). If they purchase course access inside the app, Apple requires in-app purchase and takes 15–30%. Most ed-tech apps route purchases through web to avoid the Apple tax.
Yes — lesson videos download for offline viewing within the app with light DRM. Critical for newcomer students studying on transit (Toronto TTC, Vancouver SkyTrain) without consistent mobile data, and for students travelling overseas during prep cycles.
Teachable and Thinkific are excellent SaaS for browser-first courses. Your own app makes sense when mobile-first matters (most newcomer students study on phone, not laptop), when you need custom workflows (mock tests, band-score reporting), or when you want to escape per-student SaaS fees at scale.
Yes — we integrate Zoom, Google Meet, or in-app WebRTC via Daily.co. Live classes are recorded and auto-published to the on-demand lesson library, so students who miss live can still consume the content. Attendance and engagement tracked per student.
Single-creator or single-program app with course library + Stripe subscription: 8–10 weeks. Multi-instructor academy with cohorts, live class, mock tests, and parent dashboard: 12–16 weeks. Apple review averages 24–48 hours, with extra scrutiny for any in-app purchase setup.
