Most software that has targeted the private school sector has focused on the academic side. That is, they create content that digitizes the learning experience or provide educational management tools that facilitate the delivery of grades, and newsletters, among other things, more aligned to the academic part. Our focus is to leverage the business components, which are the oxygen behind the operation and where there are fewer quality tools. How do you generate revenue? Our main source of revenue is through the payments that are generated on the platform. We see this as key, as it generates an alignment of incentives: the school wants to charge more, and we want the tool to be the best and simplest to optimize collection. At the end of the day, this forces us to leverage data to generate best practices that ensure optimal collection in the long term. Which Latin American startup do you admire? Within the education sector, I have a lot of admiration for Crehana , because it started in a very different context, where few believed in the region and in the education sector. The resilience of that team and the achievements they have had have facilitated the path of many entrepreneurs who have come after us. What is the next step for the company? The main focus is to consolidate in Mexico, getting more clients who believe in our project. Once we achieve that, we will be on our way to creating a company that will change the reality of the educational sector in our region. Main image: Cometa.
