2

Students Back It

Learners discover your pitch, ask questions, and enroll with a commitment. Every enrollment counts toward the quorum threshold you set.

3

Quorum Reached — Build It

When enough students commit, payments unlock and you build the course. Learners get exactly what they asked for. Everyone wins.
