What is the Thinkific platform, and who is it built for?
Thinkific is a Canadian platform that builds you a site to sell courses online. You can also sell a student community, monthly subscriptions, coaching sessions and digital files on it.
The company was founded in 2012 in Vancouver and is listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange. According to its website, its customers have earned more than $4.23 billion through the platform. These are their figures, not ours.
Thinkific is built for an expert or a company selling recorded courses in English to a global audience that pays in dollars. It has strong selling tools: a student community, coupons, a mobile app and AI that writes quiz questions.
What it lacks is what an Egyptian teacher needs every day. Its payment gateway is not available in Egypt, Arabic is not one of its languages, and it has no attendance, groups or parents.
Snatr, at snatr.com, was built for exactly this case from the start. Your platform is in your name and in Arabic, the student pays in EGP, and the tutoring center and online teaching are in one account.
