Worldwide

Summary

I am looking for an experienced mobile app developer or established development team to help plan and build a new AI-supported educational application for high school students on both iOS and Android. The application will bring together study organization, learning support, practice tools, progress tracking and light gamification into a single student-friendly platform. At a high level, the product may include: • Student registration, onboarding and profiles • Study planning and scheduling tools • Subject and topic organization • Study timers and reminders • Notes and document uploads • AI-assisted explanations and learning support • Practice questions and feedback • Progress tracking and basic analytics • Rewards and engagement features • Push notifications • Free and premium access tiers • A web-based administration dashboard • Potential future expansion for additional user roles and features The AI component should support learning and understanding rather than simply completing tasks for students. It should be capable of working with user-provided material while also offering guided educational assistance. The first objective is to define a realistic MVP and break the broader concept into manageable development phases. I am looking for a developer or team that can assist with: • Product and technical discovery • User-flow and MVP planning • UI/UX design and prototyping • Cross-platform mobile development • Backend and database architecture • AI and document-processing integration • Subscription integration • Administration dashboard development • Testing and quality assurance • App Store and Google Play deployment • Source-code and documentation handover More detailed product information, designs and long-term plans will be shared after a Non-Disclosure Agreement has been signed. PLEASE READ BEFORE APPLYING: 1. Review the attached NDA. 2. Sign and return it with your proposal or in your first message. 3. If attachments are not possible, confirm your willingness to sign before receiving further details. 4. Do not request full project materials prior to completing the NDA. 5. Initial discussions should remain within the platform. Your initial proposal should include: • Links to two or three live mobile applications you have developed • Relevant experience with education, AI, gamification, subscriptions or document handling • Your recommended technology stack • Your suggested MVP scope • Features you would defer to later phases • An estimated fixed-price range • An estimated timeline • A proposed milestone structure • The number and roles of team members involved • What your estimate includes (UI/UX, backend, AI, admin dashboard, testing, deployment, source code and post-launch support) Generic proposals will not be considered. I am looking for a thoughtful technical assessment and a realistic phased approach rather than an artificially low estimate.
