2. Description of Business Idea
StudiUs is an app that connects students who are looking for opportunities to study. The app creates a community
that can be specifically class based or school wide and allows students to connect with each other. Students who
are looking to tutor others in a one on one environment while earning money can advertise their services on the
app. Additionally, the app offers forums for students to connect and form study groups. This app offers multiple
opportunities for students to connect and study.
3. Problem
The problem that my app works to address is the difficulty students have to connect with others to study. At times
it can be difficult to find a tutor to teach you and it can be difficult to figure out a schedule that works. Additionally,
some students have difficulty asking for help to study because they're scared to say they need help. Many students
face these issues on a daily basis.
4. Solution
My app provides the opportunity to fix the problems addressed because it provides a location for direct contact
with a sole focus on studying. StudiUs directly connects students with a tutor which gets rid of the difficulty and
time commitment of having to search for one. The forums also allow students to ask for help and see that others
also need help studying. This app works to help students.
5. Market
StudiUs is set apart from our competitors because we combine the ability to find and connect with a tutor, and the
ability to connect with other students. Our competitors are mostly apps designed to find a virtual tutor. StudiUs
connects students with other students at their school which can provide more opportunities to help. Our target
consumers are students at the high school and college level.
