In 2009, Irynsoft started as a company to deliver online educational content on mobile devices--specifically iPhones. Planning to deliver this software as a service to colleges and universities, Irynsoft co-opted open education resources and gave away the software to gain credibility, support initial adoption, and learn about usage patterns and customer reaction. The goal was to obtain 10,000 customers to show how the technology sufficiently scaled. Less than two years late without any money spent on marketing their apps, Irynsoft has become a pioneer in open education on mobile devices, accumulating over 100,000 downloads of their platform and served up terabytes of free video content to support partnerships including MIT OpenCourseware and Khan Academy. The wildly successful apps have led Irynsoft to dramatically change their business strategy to focus on supporting open courseware's adoption through specialized tablet devices resold by Irynsoft themselves. This talk will share a history lesson of the past two years of a unique company, the habits of the early adopters of Irynsoft's technology, and why Irynsoft is convinced that mobile is the future of open education resources.
