Edtech Conversations with Fexingo: Online Learning, Schools, and Education Software

Where this show ranks

About this podcast

Lucas and Luna examine the business of education technology, from K-12 software procurement to the economics of lifelong learning platforms. Each episode takes one specific edtech segment—adaptive tutoring algorithms, university-backed MOOC spinoffs, classroom hardware refresh cycles—and traces the revenue models, customer acquisition costs, and regulatory pressures that define it. They discuss real company cases: Byju's debt restructuring, PowerSchool's private equity play, Coursera's B2B pivot, and the slow adoption of AI grading tools in U.S. districts. Lucas brings the numbers—public filings, enrollment data, district IT budgets—while Luna asks about teacher buy-in, equity gaps, and what actually drives student outcomes beyond the pitch deck. The show is for product managers at edtech startups, school district administrators evaluating vendors, and investors tracking the sector's shift from growth-at-all-costs to profitability. No hype about 'transforming the classroom'—just the actual unit economics of selling software to cash-strapped schools. Can an edtech company scale without sacrificing learning outcomes, or is the business model fundamentally at odds with educational equity? #Edtech #OnlineLearning #K12Software #Coursera #Byjus #PowerSchool #AdaptiveLearning #Mooc #DistrictIT #EdtechFunding #EducationPolicy #LifelongLearning #AIinEducation #SchoolTechnology #EdtechBusiness #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #Technology
