Competition Specs

Live Social Network

Freemium User-Friendly Brand Potential

eProf classes are all live and interactive. Our world-

class virtual classroom can host up to 25 live

video streams in addition to document sharing,

screen sharing, live chat and media streaming.

While this does not set us apart from WizIQ or Blackboard, it does differentiate from

marketplace plays such as SkillShare or Udemy.

eProf is both a powerful teaching tool and a user network that promotes

interaction, collaboration and making new

connections. eProf has tools such as discussion boards,

forums, in-class social media integration and a sophisticated internal messaging system.

As the eProf network evolves, we will be

recreating many of the best features that LinkedIn has to

offer.

eProf has no upfront fees for educators on the

site. This freemium model, in combination

with the user-friendliness of the site

will lead to higher percentage signup conversions than

companies like WizIQ have.

eProf strives to provide a clean and streamlined user

experience that makes online teaching easy and painless.

The current on-site experience is simple and

powerful; as our development team scales,

this experience will continue to improve.

The potential for branding eProf as the elite teaching

venue on the web is undeniable. As eProf success stories emerge from around the world, these stories will

be showcased through strategic marketing

campaigns. Success stories from well-known experts will have a viral effect that lead to

mass signups from their follower networks. We call these well-known experts

eProfs in Residence.

Why does eProf stand out amongst the competition?
