Hey Product Hunters 👋!
I'm Tudor, GTM at Educato. We saw that exam prep industry has a structural blind spot: it only serves a fraction of the world's exams.
The reason? Traditional test prep requires months of manual content development per exam. At that cost structure, a 6,000-candidate exam will never justify the investment. The unit economics only work for exams with hundreds of thousands of test-takers. We needed a different approach.
So we built Educato - and today we're launching the app on iOS and Android.
Here's how it works:
- Tell us your exam, your target score, and your deadline
- Educato builds an adaptive study plan around you, focusing on your weak spots and adjusting as you improve
- Every question is aligned with the official syllabus and exam blueprint, built through analysis of past exams, textbooks, and expert notes
- All content is reviewed by subject-matter specialists before you see it
- Spaced repetition brings back concepts before you forget them
We'll be here all day to answer questions and share our mission. Let's chat!

Always happy to see an education-related app launching on PH! Congrats - onwards and upwards 🔥
I like the approach of having all the content reviewed by subject-matter experts. I'm curious, for niche exams with smaller pools, how do you find the right SMEs?
Aaand also curious - have you considered expanding towards peer study groups? Learning can feel isolating, and it could be an interesting extension given your focus on personalized content.
You're right the expert pool is limited for niche exams. What's been working well is reaching out to previous candidates who scored top results. They bring fresh, practical insights and it's been super productive. On study groups - totally agree learning can feel isolating. We've already started here: having the option to make friends on Educato, study groups and challenge your friends. But we definitely see the social side as a big opportunity and plan to double down on it.
@mcarmonas Hey Martí! Thanks a lot 🙌 Right now, students can create their own notes and flashcards, but only for the exams we already support. That said, letting users bring their own question sets, especially for niche exams, is definitely on our radar. Great suggestion!

As an ex-teacher, I think that this is really impressive! Can I ask, has this been built with the support of educators? And, is it limited to specific exam boards, or does it adapt once a learner inputs their exam board information? Congratulations on the launch!
@leah_dyke We build Educato with the help of people who have taken (and recently passed) the exams, so their feedback is very grounded in real exam experience. At the moment, the study journey doesn’t adapt based on the learner’s exam board input. Instead, it personalizes dynamically based on performance, exam date, and each learner’s strengths and weaknesses. Really appreciate your thoughts, Leah! Especially coming from an ex-teacher 🙌

Prepping for a computer architecture exam right now, and drowning in course slides makes me realize how desperately the education space needs this. A tool that curates that kind of chaos into a personalized study plan with instant explanations is exactly what's missing when studying solo late at night. Huge congrats on the launch, Tudor!
@fahrimert Thanks so much, Fahri - and good luck with your exam, you've got this 💪 Would love to know what exam you're preparing for. If it's something we can help with, we'd be happy to look into it.

Do you plan to let users import their own question sets for niche exams that might not be covered yet? Looks great, good luck with the launch!
