Free discovery and matching
Koydo can introduce families and tutors for free. A family subscription unlocks in-product messaging. Search placement is not sold and no referral fee is deducted.
Koydo Lingua for independent tutors
Meet new students. Keep every dollar you negotiate.
Families can discover tutors and compare fit for free; an active Koydo family subscription unlocks messaging. Tutors set their own rates and terms, decide whom to work with, and receive lesson payment directly outside Koydo. Koydo earns from its own tutor and learner subscriptions—not from a tutor's lesson fee.
Tutors stay independent
Tutors set rates, hours, teaching terms, and curriculum; work under their own name; remain free to use competing services; and accept or reject each inquiry.
Subscriptions fund Koydo
Tutors can subscribe to the workspace. Families can subscribe for learning, practice, progress, and AI help. Mobile purchases use ordinary platform IAP.
There is no Koydo wallet.
0% means 0%. Koydo never holds your lesson money, never takes a cut of it, and there is no Koydo checkout for lessons — you and your students agree on terms and payment goes straight to you. Koydo is funded by the family subscriptions families buy for learning tools and by the optional $19-a-month Koydo Lingua Teach Pro workspace tutors choose for themselves. That's the whole model, out loud.

Simple boundaries for tutors and families
- Koydo does not collect lesson payments, hold balances, issue lesson credits, refund tutoring, or pay tutors. Families and tutors settle lesson fees directly.
- Matching is free: zero percentage, zero per-introduction fee, and zero deduction from what tutors earn.
- Every public tutor must clear identity and background screening. Tutors buy the screening through secure web Stripe checkout at the provider service cost plus 20%. Payment never guarantees clearance or changes search position.
- Approved education programs may buy Koydo-owned learner subscriptions or educational software through their approved vendor channel. Program funds never become tutor lesson money or cash-like platform value.
