About LearnTech Global

LearnTech Global is a rapidly growing education technology platform democratizing access to world-class instruction. Starting in 2021, they've scaled to 1M+ students across 120 countries, offering affordable live classes in STEM, languages, and professional skills. They partner with 10,000+ expert instructors to deliver personalized education at global scale.

  • Education Focus: Live Interactive Learning
  • Students: 1M+
  • Instructor Network: 10K+
  • Global Reach: 120 countries

The Challenge

Growth from 10K to 1M students in 18 months revealed critical infrastructure gaps. Live class quality degraded with latency issues, students in developing regions experienced buffering and disconnects, and managing thousands of simultaneous classes became technically impossible. They needed a platform that could support interactive learning at global scale, especially for cost-sensitive markets.

The Solution

WAVE's global CDN provided reliable, low-latency streaming to all 120 countries with adaptive bitrate for varying connection speeds. Interactive features—live polling, hand-raising, whiteboard collaboration—kept students engaged. Recording and on-demand access enabled asynchronous learning, multiplying the platform's reach. Integrated assessments and progress tracking improved learning outcomes.
