Plexx: Training the World. We are designing a mobile application to facilitate a portable learning experience. We are creating a marketplace where creators (teachers & peers) can provide video, audio, ebooks, and games to learners delivered through a mobile phone. We are currently mocking our mobile application, testing with users, and have launched an MVP (minimum viable product) to get feedback from a focus group of users. USAdelante was the previous project that lead to Plexx - a mobile app facilitating peer to peer coaching to increase retention rates in higher education. Over the course of these programs we participated in MassChallenge, Startup Chile, the Robinhood / Blueridge Accelerator and the Harvard Innovation Lab.
