Q: Course Platform
As I have found the first questions concerning the course platform I am interested in whether it will be integrated for all who have bought the product already or do we have to buy it on top? Further, if we have to buy it on top, will there be an AppSumo lifetime offer?

We haven't made any decisions on this yet.
Most likely though, there will be a basic version of it built into Zylvie for completeness.
It will probably be in the form of a PDF/EPUB reader for basic courses.
But if the scope gets out of hand (meaning users expect folders, pages, full HTML, elements/blocks, video hosting, etc. etc.), it will need to be spun off for sure.
The fact that you're asking this question shows that you too know that this is a separate product, and based on its scope, it definitely is.
As for whether it will be a lifetime plan, again that really depends on what the user base will bear.
If our user base fights us on white label and does not give us any way to sustain ourselves using publicly-facing backlinks, then offering a LTD will be an unsustainable business model.
If our user base understands that something has to give in order for LTDs to be sustainable (especially LTD on a big software like a course platform, with expensive hosting and bandwidth needs), then yeah we could probably do it on an LTD model.
All this is very preliminary, and no decision has been made yet.
But so far, this is what we have planned.
I hope that I have shed some light on this matter.
With thanks,
Jay
Well, I guess you have heard of ThriveCart. They have the product which you offer now and then they have the Learn(+). Both are life long deals. They do not host videos, but have great functionalities when it comes to dropping in content, etc.
As it is too far ahead, I will refund your app. I love the way you have built the app so far, but at the moment I will stick to ThriveCart. Sorry.
Hi there,
I understand if you do that, we just don't make promises we can't keep.
Underpromise, overdeliver, that's what we do, that's all we've been doing.
I thank you for giving us a shot.
With thanks,
Jay
Jay, that is absolutely understandable.
As I mentioned, if I would not have ThriveCart, I would definitely kept your app because it is really good and simple to use.
