Certidrill

After our launch last month, it was time to get in touch with some potential users who might need CertiDrill to learn new things.

The choice was difficult. Certidrill allows you to learn different subjects in different areas: IT, Science, Languages, History, Economy, etc.

So it's basically for anyone.

Now, while that's helpful because you target a larger audience, it can be difficult to choose your first users.

We are still testing the waters and in need of valuable feedback to improve the product. So, publishing to a larger audience can be risky and may harm the brand if unexpected things (bugs) happen.

So we decided to narrow down the target and choose only one subject that you can learn at Certidrill. The choice was AWS certifications.

We decided to mention our product on http://reddit.com. It was practically only one post on an AWS-related subreddit, and the message was clear: Certidrill is an AI solution to help you prepare for AWS exams.

The results exceeded our expectations.

24 hours after the post, we got 58 signups and 11 comments about the app, what's good, and what's to improve.

This was incredibly helpful and sent us on another sprint to improve the product and add other features.

No one passed to the paid plan yet. But the feedback we received says that bright days are coming.

We still get some signups since the Reddit post, but we are not sure if those come from Reddit or somewhere else, since we talked about Certidrill on many other platforms (just listed the product and description).

We will keep these iterations (Talk to users, receive feedback, and improve the product) many times in the future. Our goal now is to get the first paid user.

After 5 months of coding (I know, we took too much to get the MVP ready), Certidrill is finally online. We still have a lot of ideas and features to develop, but we are happy (finally) with this initial version. We'll start looking for our first users while continuing to work on upcoming features. We'll keep you updated.
