OpenClass is a learning tool for educators to build & crowdsource mastery-based assignments. Our assignments leverage learning principles proven to optimize knowledge retention, and identify & bridge knowledge gaps to personalize learning for students. The core problem we're trying to solve is the "glove" or "one-size-fits-all" problem. It's inherently impossible for one educator to reach the unique needs of each of their students. As a result, students leave their classes and retain a minimal amount of the information. Let's make it easy for educators to add an at-your-own-pace component to their classes to help their students master their curriculum. Our mission is to improve & democratize education. As such, we will always have a strong version of our product available for free. The business model is to (1) charge for institutional licenses that include extra features (branded environment, LMS integration, Single Sign-On, etc.), (2) charge for assignment building services, and (3) (eventually) add a service fee for private / paid classes.

AirDev is changing the way that custom software is built: 1) We build using frameworks like bubble.is instead of code. 2) Our software is made by smart non-coder generalists, who not only build products but also help our clients figure out what products to build. 3) We standardize and templatize everything about our process, turning software development into a streamlined and painless experience. As the result, we can build the same applications as made by traditional developers but do it up to 10x faster. Most of our projects end up taking between 1 and 4 weeks of development time (vs. the traditional 2-6 months). We build two-sided marketplaces (AirBnb for x), e-commerce solutions, analytical and diagnostic tools, custom CRM systems, and more. Our team is based in San Francisco and our customers include startups, non-profits, and large organizations.
