isomorƒ vs Tutors App

an experimental software development paradigm designed to lower barriers and increase efficiency

Isomorƒ is a re-imagination of full-stack software development for the cloud era that combines version control, a structured customizable IDE, testing, integration, and deployment (cloud-hosted, downloadable, native apps, etc.). All code is public and instantly shareable and our focus is on technology and analysis that will drive development efficiency via automatic reuse, collaboration, and scaling. We will monetize via a GitHub-style pay-for-privacy model and tiered pricing for hosting/db/cpu.

Work smarter, not harder.

Tutors is an iPhone application that connects students with nearby tutors to book sessions on the fly, or for later. It saves students and parents time and money by matching students with a qualified tutor on the f​irst​ session, for 50­-80% less than with a typical company like Sylvan.

Students signup and can immediately browse qualified tutors in their area on the Tutors iPhone app. Search results are based on course requirements and personal preferences, and most tutors are students themselves right on-campus. Tutors set their own rates, students can request in-person sessions or online ones via Skype, and sessions can be on-demand or scheduled in advance.

Tutors first launched in Los Angeles at USC and is expanding to UCLA and other campuses across SoCal. The Tutors App can be found in the Apple App Store under the title “Tutors.”
