Ship It Live · e-learning sprint
Your course, as a real product, live in 30 days.
Lessons, progress, quizzes and payment — your teaching in a product you own, instead of renting a course platform that takes a cut.
Quick answer
An education or e-learning app can be designed, built and live in 30 days for a fixed $2,500, covering courses and lessons, video and text content, quizzes, progress tracking, certificates and payment or subscription access. Live virtual classrooms and formal accreditation systems are separate projects.
The plan
Day one to day 30, written down.
You get this schedule before you commit, not after. If a phase slips, that is mine to absorb — the price and the date were agreed before anything started.
- 1
Days 1–3
Scope lock
How your material is actually structured, how access is sold, and what completion means. Course apps go wrong when the content model is decided after the design.
- 2
Days 4–12
Design
The lesson screen first — it is where learners spend all their time — then the course browse, progress and instructor views.
- 3
Days 13–24
Build
Content structure, video delivery, progress, quizzes and payments. Your real course goes in during the build rather than after it, so you see the actual thing.
- 4
Days 25–28
Learn with it
Real learners going through a real module. This is where you discover whether lesson two is too long, and there is still time to change it.
- 5
Days 29–30
Launch
Payments live, first cohort enrolled, and your course running on something you own.
What $2,500 gets you
Everything needed to launch — nothing padding the invoice.
Who books this
Built for
Educators and coaches renting a course platform and paying for the privilege
Training providers whose material lives in Drive folders and Zoom recordings
Founders building for a subject the generic platforms serve badly
The honest part
When 30 days is the wrong answer.
A fixed deadline only works when the scope genuinely fits inside it. These are the cases where I will tell you so rather than take the booking.
Live virtual classrooms with video conferencing built in — use a dedicated tool and link to it; rebuilding Zoom badly serves nobody.
SCORM, xAPI or formal accreditation compliance, which are standards programmes rather than features.
Proctored examinations with identity verification and anti-cheating — genuinely complex and genuinely regulated.
Questions
Before you book
If one fits, use it, and I will tell you so on the call. Building your own makes sense when their fees have grown past what a build costs, when your subject needs a structure they cannot express, or when the learning experience is the product rather than a wrapper around videos.
Other sprints
30 days from now, this could be live.
A 30-minute call decides whether the scope fits. If it doesn't, I'll tell you what would.
