Make the most of your curiosity with Continuum, the world’s first learn-to-earn social education app. Through short-form courses from industry experts, you can learn new skills in minutes and earn cryptocurrency and NFTs for doing it.
I checked your website and it can attract lot of people for learn to earn concept but i don't find much courses which make me get into but i also understand it's a PH launch and it will give us more value with time and i hope you guys keep giving more great courses in coming days. Congratulations for the launch
@varunrazora hey Varun, valid point. We have 30 full courses now and a few hundred pieces of shorter educational content. But as you mentioned it's a PH launch now and we have a ton of courses in the works. From creators, brands and ourselves. Stay tuned 📺 Thank you!

I ❤️ the design!
Here is my feedback:
Why did you choose only to go mobile?
I prefer a desktop version because I can focus better on a laptop.
I hope you have a solid monetization strategy because learning apps have a high burn rate if they aren't backed by capital. If you need some ideas from a learning app that got there, listen to the monetization journey of the founder of Duolingo, that language learning app.

At the moment you launch, in the first stage, you would run into problems, so focus on customer solution fit, meaning you need to run about 1000 product-led growth experiments to dive deep into which segment you can serve best.
A) If I were your company's growth marketer, I would start to scrape your customer reviews and competitors, like Udemy's web courses on web3, to identify how to communicate better and where you give added value.
B) I would scrape the comments of the web3 youtube channels to identify a pattern that could be used in in-app marketing experiments.
C) If you have a data scientist, ask them to run sentiment analysis. A workaround is to ask your coders to familiarize themselves with data science libraries.
D) Last but not least, you need to have an investor page, which gives them a roadmap of past successes like this product hunt launch and where you want to be every quarter.
I don't believe you can get where you want to be with your own money unless you are already a millionaire because learning platforms have a hard time starting with monetization. I foresee your platform will be like The Futur website, where most of the content is free, but the advanced content is paid for the true learners.
@jas801 Hi Jasper,
Thank you very much for all these tips. We really appreciate it!
We chose to go mobile bc 60-ish% of our audience is in Africa and Asia, uses their phone much more than a computer, and 4G penetration is pretty good now in these parts. But, we do have a web version as well.
Thanks for the link to that podcast, we know it well. I'm a big fan of Duolingo. And we are VC backed, our investors are noted on our website.
Cheers and thanks again ser 🙏
Congrats on the launch! Education in Web3 or blockchain is such necessary for people now as this buzz word is exploding in search terms. Will definitely try it!
@mattkim_5 ahhh Matt, you're the best. Smoothie crew is the greatest. So good to meetup with you in Singapore. I'm sure we'll cross paths in some corner of the globe soon!
@george_goognin hey George, was wondering when you would stop by 😎 Yes, many very interesting partners. Met many at the conference last week. Continuum resonated very well with a lot of folks.
The idea of gamification on a learning platform and getting reworded isn't new but always sounds exciting. The list of courses listed on the site, however, does not. Are you planning to widen up the spectrum of knowledge in the future?
@1gr3 hi Ivo, yes, the primary thing we are working on now is course creation with ourselves, creators and brands. We have 30 courses in the app (just 6 on the website) and a few hundred short courses / edu inspo carousels and videos. Thanks for your feedback.
Hello friends! 👋
I’m Jason Curry, a co-founder of Continuum. My team and I are happy to finally be launching our 100% full-featured (and FREE) product to you after 18 months of so much hard work by our global team of developers, designers, creators, and other contributors.
We set out with a big vision. To be the global vocational school for self-learners entering and growing their remote careers.
We did our research and interviewed a lot of people to discover the biggest pain points and obstacles learners faced on their journey.
It’s very likely you are familiar with many of them.
1. Not everyone knows what they want to do for a living.
2. Education is expensive.
3. It can be hard to make a living while studying.
Our beliefs, in response to these problems, are:
1. Education should begin with discovery, especially with so many new fields and facets of work, technologies, and tools coming out every day.
2. Education is a fundamental human right. It should be free. And companies which profit from an educated workforce, are the logical party to carry the cost.
3. A form of UBI (universal basic income)
Continuum has taken a substantial first step in manifesting this vision through the web and mobile launch of our learn-to-earn platform.
Our platform is FREE for learners and content creators. Better than that, we actually reward learners with crypto and proof of completion NFTs for finishing courses and engaging in discussions. The purpose is to create a self-sustaining ecosystem of educators, learners, and mentors at all stages of their journey. The only money coming into the system is from brands looking to build awareness of their technologies and related products, in an organic, laid-back way.
If you vibe with our vision and think it could help you or someone you know, please show us some love, ask questions and visit our site at continuum.xyz to download our app today!✌️
