Founder

Eviee

This was my first private project which I started to work on, with the aim of founding a company. Eviee is a tool to support teachers with correction of schoolwork and provide meaningful feedback to students that is more than just a grade.

It does this by allowing teachers to annotate school work, which is used to aid in calculating a final grade. It also structures feedback to make it understandable and applicable for students.

I validated this idea with potential users who signed up via a landing page, which was advertised on facebook, using a no-code solutions and a click-dummy prototype which was designed in Figma for me.

Achievements:

  • Accepted into Berlin Startup School for support development of idea-stage startups.
  • Won pitch competition, resulting in the development of a click-dummy prototype to use for validation with customers.

Results: In the end, despite positive feedback during validation, I was not able to find a technical co-founder in a reasonable amount of time, so I stopped working on it to consider why and change my approach for next time.
