Project Content
Octomo builds a humanized online learning ecosystem for all professionals worldwide that is based on an algorithm that leverages social bonding theory.
The most difficult problem in designing a successful online learning platform is how to motivate the learner to stay on track. By facilitating the development of deep connections among learners, Octomo increases the willingness of learners to support each other, to learn from each other and to complete their online program. The complexity of the approach is to understand and account for the numerous factors of how adults bond.
We construct learning groups based on psychometric characteristics of individuals and lead the learners through a 6 - 8 week online program together with a batch of other learners. Learners meet twice per week in a live call to discuss and support each other. The main value proposition of our product is that we build deep connections among learners fast, so that deep discussion and emotional support can take place.
