Quantt
Land your dream job in quantitative finance
My cofounders and I have been heads down since Autumn 2025, building out the content and platform for Quantt.
We officially launched in early 2026 and got our first paying customer at the end of January, which felt like a huge milestone after months of building in isolation.
Since then, we’ve been iterating quickly based on feedback. The product has improved a lot already, and we’ve learned a ton about managing content, structuring the platform, and shipping improvements without over-engineering everything (which is very tempting as software engineers).
More recently, we’ve started focusing properly on marketing - something that definitely doesn’t come as naturally to us as building. That shift alone has helped us grow to a small handful of paying customers, which we’re genuinely excited about.
We still have a lot to learn on the distribution side. If anyone here has advice on marketing technical education products - especially as engineer-founders -I’d really appreciate it.
We’ve got plenty of ideas for where Quantt can go next, and it feels like we’re just getting started.
Happy to share more specifics if helpful.

Congrats on the first paying customers! That first validation after months of building matters.
For technical education platforms, one area worth thinking about early is platform trust and content protection:
• If courses include downloadable materials or code examples, are access endpoints protected to prevent scraping or bulk downloads?
• Are payment flows and course access tokens scoped per user to avoid shared access links?
Education platforms often become targets for automated scraping once content gains value.
Another trust signal is clarity around data handling:
• What learner data is stored
• How long progress data is retained
• Whether analytics or AI tools process user activity
Publishing a simple security and data policy page helps with credibility, especially with technical audiences.
As a security team building Nautillo Pro, we often test platforms that expose APIs or course content because those surfaces grow quickly as products scale.
