Turn what you already know into something people pay for

Upload the lessons, set a price in shillings or dollars, share one link. Students get their own login, their progress is tracked for them, and certificates go out without you lifting a finger.

What you get

What teaching online really gives you

Teach more people than a room holds

The workshop you run four times a year for twelve people becomes something a hundred can take at once, without you booking a venue or repeating yourself.

Students go at their own pace

Progress is saved lesson by lesson, so somebody studying at 5am before work picks up exactly where they left off. Release lessons weekly if you would rather they did not rush.

Quizzes and certificates, handled

Check understanding at the end of a module, and issue a certificate with the student's name the moment they finish. No spreadsheet of who completed what.

Paying enrols them instantly

Money in means access granted — at two in the morning, on a public holiday, from another country. You are never the manual step between payment and the first lesson.

How it works

From an idea to enrolled students

  1. Outline it before you record

    Write the modules and lesson titles first. Seeing the shape on one screen shows you what is missing and what you were about to say twice.

  2. Upload the lessons

    Video, audio, a PDF workbook or plain written text — mix whatever suits the subject. A course of clear written lessons beats one of unwatchable video.

  3. Set the price and the rules

    Charge in UGX, in USD, or both. Decide whether everything opens at once or unlocks week by week, and whether the first lesson is free to preview.

  4. Share one link

    Put it on your site, in your bio and in an email. Buying creates the student account, enrols them and sends the login without you being told about it.

In practice

Courses running on GritCMS-shaped businesses

  • A driving school

    Sells the theory course online and keeps the car for practicals.

  • An English tutor

    Runs a paid eight-week programme with a quiz gating each week.

  • An agronomist

    Teaches poultry management to farmers who watch on their phones.

Questions

Courses, answered

The things people ask us before they move their business across.

  • You upload them into the workspace and they stream from there, so you do not need a separate video subscription. Each plan includes storage for them — 3 GB on Starter, 4.5 GB on Pro and 6 GB on Scale — and if a course outgrows that, extra storage is $0.20, about 760 UGX, per GB a month rather than a blocked upload. If you already host on YouTube or Vimeo, you can embed those instead and keep the workflow you know.

  • Video adapts to the connection it finds, and lessons can carry a PDF or written version for anyone who would rather read than stream. Many creators here deliberately make the written version the main lesson.

  • Yes. Split a course into two or three payments, or sell access as a monthly subscription that ends when they stop paying. You can also open the first lesson free so people can judge before they commit.

  • When they complete the course, a certificate with their name and the completion date is generated and emailed automatically. You can put your logo and signature on it during setup.

  • Yes. Enrol people ahead of time, hold the lessons closed until launch day, then drip them weekly so the whole cohort moves together and the community discussion stays in step.
