Product overview
Discovery
Students find tutors by course, university, distance, price and reviews. Course matching uses AI on course names only.
Booking & schedule
Private and group session requests, confirmations, rescheduling and reminders, next to the student’s class timetable.
Online classroom
Live video, audio and screen sharing (LiveKit), in-call chat, a shared board and shared notes. Sessions are not recorded by Tutornet.
Messaging
Text, photos, files and voice messages between students and tutors, with report and block on every chat.
Folios
Tutors publish their own study documents on the website. Students buy them in the app (App Store or Google Play) or on the student website (Whish) and read them in either; tutors are paid out through Whish.
Meeting places
Suggestions for public cafés and libraries near a student’s campus (Google Places), and a map to pick a place.
Tutor verification
Verification is optional, done on the tutor website, and shows a badge on the tutor’s profile. There are two ways:
- ID check with Persona. The tutor scans a government ID or passport and takes a live selfie in Persona’s hosted flow. Tutornet receives only the result and Persona’s inquiry ID — not the ID images or selfie.
- Proof of enrollment. The tutor can upload a photo of a university ID or enrollment document instead. It is stored privately, seen only by Tutornet’s review team, and deleted with the account.
Keys and student privacy
Students’ names, photos and university stay hidden from tutors until a tutor uses a Key to unlock that student. Tutors receive starter Keys and can buy more on the tutor website, paid with Whish. Keys have no cash value and aren’t sold in the app.
