Univy is an edtech platform designed to help anyone create, manage, and sell their videos as digital courses.
Creators simply upload their videos, and within minutes, their courses are hosted and ready to go live on the Univy marketplace.
Unlike existing platforms, which often aren’t built specifically for video-based courses and can be technically complex, Univy is streamlined and user-friendly.
Creators don’t need any technical expertise; they just follow a few straightforward steps, and their courses can be live in under 10 minutes, with Univy managing the marketplace sales for them.
An initial friends’ SEIS round supported the launch of Univy’s MVP, enabling the onboarding of 20 creators and generating early revenue.
Additionally, Univy has secured advanced assurance for both SEIS and EIS, paving the way for the funding round, which opens very shortly, to support further growth.
