What makes a tutor platform work
Tutor marketplaces fail in predictable ways: unverified profiles, fake reviews, and both sides moving off-platform after the first lesson so the platform earns nothing. Parents need confidence that credentials are real and that money is safe before a lesson happens. Tutors need a steady flow of students and a reason to stay, which means the platform has to deliver more than an introduction.
What we build for one
First, verified tutor profiles with checked credentials and a review system resistant to manipulation, since trust is the entire product. Second, search and matching by subject, level, price and schedule, which is how parents actually filter. Third, scheduling and lesson delivery inside the platform, which is what makes leaving it inconvenient. Fourth, payment escrow released after a lesson, protecting parents and guaranteeing tutors, and giving both a reason to stay.
