Hi everyone ππΌ
Tonight we're launching Humbot Boost.
We launched Humbot a couple of months back. With Humbot, we're providing instant homework help for school kids by real humans. We charge a fixed fee of only $99/month.
Humbot Boost is our scholarship program: Students can apply and, if selected, can access Humbot for a significantly reduced rate of only $15/month.
We launched Boost because our goal is to drive down the cost of high-quality education in the coming years. We aim to offer 1-on-1 tutoring at a lower price to everyone someday. Unfortunately, today we can't build a sustainable business with this pricing. But with Boost, we can start enabling more and more kids from lower-income families to improve their education and do better at school.
I know that Product Hunt is not Humbot's target group - but if you know friends and family with kids in school, feel free to share β€οΈ
Looks really cool. How do you ensure that a one on one tutoring platform like this doesn't descend to something that will be considered academic dishonesty? A lot of other platforms have started with a similar mission but end up straying the path.
@paraj_mathur Great point. We don't do homework for our students but help them understand the underlying concepts. If a student can't work with that, we're happy to refund and their money and cancel their account.
We can do this because we're not a marketplace, but all tutoring is done by the Humbot team. So we have control over the quality and content of the teaching.
