Launch your academy in 4 steps. No technical skills required. No hidden fees. Ever.
Viizard VLSS is developed and owned by J&S Software Services Ltd, registered in Scotland, United Kingdom. We built this platform because we experienced the frustrations of existing systems firsthand—fragmented tools, hidden fees, and platforms that prioritise their revenue over yours.
Our philosophy is simple: We charge for the platform, not your revenue. You teach, you earn, you keep what you make.
What you pay:
What you DON'T pay:
Enterprise-grade infrastructure. Educator-friendly pricing. Complete transparency.
From signup to teaching your first course—here's exactly how it works
We manually verify every application to ensure platform security and payment compliance. This protects you, your learners, and our payment infrastructure.
We validate every applicant to prevent fraud and protect our community. The verification usually takes less than an hour, but we allow 24 hours to ensure thorough review. This safeguards everyone's security and maintains payment compliance.
Use our Course Design Framework (CDF) to structure your curriculum. No blank canvas overwhelm—we guide you through every decision.
Unlike Teachable or Kajabi where you manually set up content "drip" schedules, Viizard's automation does it once. Set your course start date, and everything releases automatically—content, assessments, deadlines. Change the start date? Everything adjusts automatically. Run the same course for multiple cohorts? Each gets its own timeline without rebuilding.
What you'll have by the end of Step 2: A complete course blueprint ready for content. Your structure is reusable—teach the same course multiple times without redesigning.
Upload your learning materials, create assessments, set up live sessions, and invite your first learners.
This is the question every educator asks. Here's the honest answer—there are two pathways:
If you're already teaching (in-person classes, local workshops, traditional training), you have a massive advantage:
Start with your existing students.
You've been constrained by geography. Your expertise could reach students globally, but you've been limited to your physical location. Viizard removes those barriers.
The migration strategy:
"Sarah teaches Excel training to businesses in Manchester (10-15 students/month). She migrated her courses to Viizard, invited her existing clients first, then started accepting students from across the UK. Within 6 months, she's teaching 40+ students/month without leaving Manchester. Her students' portfolio URLs showcase their new Excel skills to employers, creating a referral pipeline."
Your advantage: You don't need to prove you can teach—you already do. You just need a platform that removes geographical barriers whilst letting you keep 100% of your revenue.
If you're entering online education for the first time, building an audience takes time and effort. But Viizard makes it easier:
Be honest with yourself: We don't provide students—marketplaces like Udemy do, but they take 50% of your revenue. Viizard positions you as an independent academy. You keep 100% of revenue, own your audience data, and build your brand. It requires effort, but you own the asset you're building.
Why the Portfolio System Matters for Both Audiences:
Every learner who completes your course gets a public portfolio URL with verifiable credentials and a direct link to your educator profile. This creates a growth flywheel:
Great teaching → Successful learners → Visible portfolios → More enquiries → More great students → Repeat
The Bottom Line:
For existing educators: You have students already—use Viizard to remove geographical limits and scale without losing quality.
For new entrants: Building an audience takes time and effort, but we give you professional tools to compete—without giving up 50% of your revenue.
Deliver your course using live sessions, async content, or both. Track everything automatically. Continuously improve based on data and feedback.

The Viizard Way:
A day-by-day guide to launching your academy during the free trial
Receive welcome email with login credentials. Explore the educator dashboard. Watch introductory video tutorials. Familiarise yourself with the interface.
Use the CDF to structure your course. Define objectives, create modules, outline assessments. Set your grading system. No need to add content yet—just build the framework.
Add your videos, documents, presentations to the Resource Centre. Create your first assessment (start simple with MC or T/F questions). Set up automated scheduling.
Link your Stripe or PayPal account. Set your course pricing. Customise your public educator profile (yourname.viizard.com). Add your bio and credentials.
Invite friends, colleagues, or existing students to test your course. Offer free access in exchange for feedback. This validates your setup before public launch.
Run your first live session with test learners. Try the interactive whiteboard, screen sharing, and breakout rooms. Get comfortable with the live teaching interface.
Teach your first paying learners (or launch publicly if confident). The platform handles attendance automatically. Focus entirely on teaching.
Check your analytics dashboard for engagement metrics. Review TACIT self-evaluation feedback from learners. Identify what's working and what needs adjustment.
By now you've built a course, taught live sessions, reviewed analytics, and collected feedback. You know if Viizard works for you. Continue with full launch or walk away—no penalties, no pressure.
Most educators run their first complete course by day 10 of the trial. By day 14, you'll have real data on whether Viizard fits your teaching style and business model.

Radical transparency about our platform, pricing, and philosophy
We believe educators should keep what they earn. We charge a fair platform fee and let you build your business. Marketplace platforms (Udemy, Teachable) take 30-50% because they market for you and bring you students. We don't. You own your audience, we provide the tools. Simple as that.
Because it should be. Time-date relational automation isn't a premium feature—it's basic functionality that saves you hours every week. Competitors charge extra or don't offer it because their platforms weren't designed with automation from the ground up. Ours was. We built Viizard specifically to eliminate repetitive admin work so you can focus on teaching.
We're new. Viizard is launching now after 2 years of development by J&S Software Services Ltd, a registered Scottish software company. We're seeking our first cohort of forward-thinking educators who want to build under their own brand without platform dependency. You're not joining an established platform—you're joining a founding cohort that shapes the product.
14-day free trial. No credit card required. If it's not right, walk away with your data. No penalties, no pressure, no guilt trips. We only want users who genuinely benefit. Export all your content and learner records anytime—you own your data completely.
Fair question for a new platform. We're built on Google Cloud infrastructure with enterprise-grade security (PCI-DSS, GDPR, FERPA compliant). Developed by J&S Software Services Ltd, a registered company in Scotland with professional software development credentials. We're not a startup chasing venture capital—we're a software company launching a sustainable product with fair pricing.
Honest answers to the questions you're probably asking
No. Viizard is designed for educators, not developers. If you can use Microsoft Word or Google Docs, you can use Viizard. The Course Design Framework guides you through every decision. We provide video tutorials, written documentation, and 24/7 support. First cohort members get priority onboarding assistance.
Yes. We can help you import content from most platforms (Teachable, Kajabi, Moodle, etc.). During your trial, contact support for migration assistance. We'll guide you through transferring course materials, learner records, and content. Your existing learners can easily transition to Viizard.
You own your data completely. Export everything (course content, learner records, assessment results, analytics) at any time in standard formats (CSV, JSON, PDF). We're built for sustainability with fair pricing, not venture capital hype. But if anything happened, you'd have full access to export before any shutdown. No data hostage situations.
Platform subscription fees. That's it. We charge a clear monthly fee based on your usage tier (individual, organisation, institution). We don't take a cut of your course revenue, don't charge per learner, and don't add hidden transaction fees beyond standard payment processing (Stripe/PayPal fees, which go to them, not us).
Yes, with white-label deployment. You can use your own domain (e.g., learn.yourcompany.com) and remove all Viizard branding. This is available on Organisation and Institution plans. Individual educators get yourname.viizard.com, which is SEO-optimised and looks professional.
We offer better—a truly free 14-day trial. No credit card required upfront. Experience the full platform risk-free. Build a course, run live sessions, test everything. Only provide payment details if you decide to continue. We only want to work with educators who genuinely benefit from Viizard.
Most educators launch their first course within 24-48 hours of account approval. The CDF guides you through course structure, assessment design, and scheduling in a logical workflow. We provide templates to accelerate setup. By day 10 of your trial, you can be teaching paid learners.
All plans include 24/7 email and live chat support. First cohort members receive priority support with direct access to our development team. We respond within hours, not days. Organisation and Institution plans include dedicated account management, onboarding training, and migration assistance.
Join our first cohort of forward-thinking educators. Experience the complete platform risk-free for 14 days.
