RiseGuide
RiseGuide is an expert-powered self-improvement app offering personalised learning journeys, structured courses and 15-minute daily lessons, with 400,000+ monthly active users and 1m+ downloads.
RiseGuide is a consumer mobile app in the personal development and edtech space. It delivers structured, personalised self-improvement programmes built around practical steps, with the stated aim of producing measurable change rather than passive content consumption. The app reports more than 400,000 monthly active users and over 1m downloads, having scaled fivefold over the past year. It is the second-highest-revenue business within the SKELAR portfolio, the venture builder of which it is part.
The product centres on structured courses - among them Communication Mastery, Intelligence Training and Content Creation - delivered as 15-minute daily lessons. Course material is drawn from more than 100 world-class experts and role models, under a principle that people learn better from guides and mentors than from theory alone. Interactive elements such as frameworks, cheat sheets, templates and exercises are designed to convert learning into action. SEEK (Search Engine for Expert Knowledge) provides on-demand access to expert material within the platform.
Technical work spans personalised learning recommendation, content platform development, search and retrieval of expert knowledge, mobile app development and learning experience design. The company's stated approach to learning - that it should be neither boring nor overwhelming - shapes both the curriculum and the interface.
