Why own app

Why having your OWN coaching app matters (vs teaching on platforms)

  • Brand equity compounds. Every 4⭐ review on YOUR Play Store listing builds YOUR brand. On Unacademy, reviews build Unacademy's brand.
  • Student data is yours. You know every enrolled student's name, phone, email, batch, payment history. Platforms don't share this.
  • Margin is 10× better. Keep 95% (Igniter 5% fee) vs 40-60% platforms take.
  • Freedom to price. Platform puts your course at ₹399 in their flash sale. Your own app, you set ₹4,999 and stick to it.
  • Direct relationship. Students trust YOUR name. When you launch a new course, they enroll immediately — no marketplace algorithm in the middle.
  • Sellable asset. Your own coaching app + student base = sellable business. Teaching on a platform = sellable nothing.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What's the difference between "own coaching app" and "coaching app"?

"Own coaching app" means the Play Store listing is under YOUR institute's name — students see your brand, not Igniter's. That's Igniter's default. You're never a tenant under someone else's brand.

Will Igniter's name appear anywhere on my own coaching app?

No — parents and students see only your institute's name. Igniter is the invisible infrastructure layer. Your coaching app is 100% yours in the user's eyes.

Can I use my own payment gateway on my own coaching app?

Yes — Razorpay, PhonePe Business, Paytm for Business all integrate. Fees settle to your bank directly, minus Igniter's 5%.

Can my own coaching app have its own domain?

Yes — point any custom domain (like mycoaching.com) to Igniter. Student-facing URLs use your domain. Play Store listing stays under your institute name.

What if I want to hire assistant teachers on my own coaching app?

Built in. Create teacher accounts from your admin dashboard — each gets their own login with scoped permissions (specific subjects / batches). RBAC included free.

How do I get students to download my own coaching app?

(1) WhatsApp share Play Store link to existing contacts, (2) Instagram / YouTube posts with Play Store CTA, (3) free demo class → share Play Store link post-demo, (4) Instagram ads targeting parents in your city.

Is my own coaching app different from a Glide / Adalo app?

Very — Glide / Adalo are generic spreadsheet-to-app tools. Igniter is purpose-built for coaching: real live streaming, mock test engine, UPI fee collection, attendance, parent portal. Generic builders can't match.
