8 years ago I was working at a cafe in Nigeria helping final year students write their projects.
That experience changed my life and led me to build something I believe will change education forever.
Here is the full story 🧵
@paulg Spot on. Smoking at least gave you a physical cough to warn you. Skipping reading just feels like free time and convenience until you realize you’ve lost the capacity for deep focus.
This is where I am right now. Built an AI platform for final year students managing their thesis, solo, three years in, product works, schools are starting to onboard. My instinct has been to keep building. Reading this makes me wonder if I've been solving the wrong problem lately.
@elonmusk The people you build with end up shaping the product more than any roadmap does. Easy to overlook until you've worked with the wrong ones and felt the difference.
@jarpel26 I know you still remember how incredibly stressful your final year project work was. Nobody should have to go through that nightmare. That is why we built Docuee to completely digitalise thesis research from topic selection to defence. There is no more manual paperwork because all corrections are done directly by your supervisor stage by stage on Docuee. Let us collaborate to ease this pain and make this available for all Nigerian students.
