What This Ledger Will Track
Infrastructure Costs
AWS hosting, CDN, database, AI API costs — the real cost of running an education platform. No hidden fees, no mystery line items.
Revenue & Subscriptions
How many learners, how much revenue, where it comes from. You'll see that ~$7 per subcourse isn't a marketing gimmick — it's the actual price.
Creator Payouts
Every content creator's contribution is tracked and compensated. You'll see who earned what and why. Even $100-300/year is better than the industry standard of $0.
Why Radical Transparency?
In the early 2000s, a Russian pizza chain grew exponentially by doing something no one else dared: they published the complete financials of every location on their website. People ordered pizza just to watch the money flow through the machine.
In a world where medical publishers extract maximum profit while paying creators nothing, we think the antidote is total openness. Not because we have to — because we believe trust is earned through visibility. We're a benefit corporation. Our social mission is legally binding.
