Knock. vs Tutors App

A virtual office for remote companies

By building a user experience around a virtual office designed by an interior architect, we put human back at the core of remote work. It's like you are at the office, but virtually.

You can take a coffee with your co-worker in the kitchen and unblock a situation, go in a dedicated room for a 1-hour workshop to achieve an important goal with your teammates, have a small talk in the lounge during a break, assist to a presentation in the conference room with everyone, (re)connect with a teammate by doing a (virtual) ping pong, and so on.

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.”
