Knowledge-sharing VS traditional Ed Courses - What is the future?

by

Hello! I'm Michael - co-founder of HipHub platform. We are based in Moscow and try to innovate our traditional ways to gain access to knowledge of the community.
There are so many courses nowadays, and companies in Russia make hundreds of millions from it. But it's all so expensive and long, so it is hard to retain attention and interest to these courses.
We've redesigned the approach and allowed anyone to create their own hub to share the knowledge they want and AI make it possible to fulfill all the audience needs without the hub owner. What do you think?

That sounds pretty fascinating Michael. Love the idea of creator-driven hubs paired with AI to keep learners engaged without the long, costly courses, haven't seen this before.

What early feedback have you seen on retention and user satisfaction?

@dheerajdotexe Early retention for B2C users is 78% with no marketing expenditure, user satisfaction is still lower due to some issues with design, and some minor tech updates to make.

We started earlier with B2B project (all under NDA, but some industries that work with us are: IT, EdTech, FinTech, looking for a MedTech opportunity next)!

Thanks for your interest!

Totally resonate with this. Traditional courses often feel too rigid, long, and disconnected from how people actually learn today — fast, contextual, and community-driven. Knowledge-sharing platforms that are more peer-led and dynamic feel much more in sync with the way we consume content now.

At Growstack, we’ve seen this firsthand — most users don’t want to sit through a full onboarding course. They want quick, real use cases, bite-sized how-tos, and contextual help when they need it. That’s where AI-enhanced hubs or assistants can really shine.

What you're building with HipHub sounds like a step in the right direction — flexible, creator-first, and scalable without losing the human element. Curious to see how it evolves!
