Why Reddit matters for edtech
Education is a high-stakes purchase. Whether it is $20 a month for a language app or $15,000 for a bootcamp, learners spend weeks researching before they commit. They search "best [thing] reddit" and read every comment.
The subreddits dedicated to learning specific skills are some of the highest-intent communities on the internet. Being credibly mentioned in those threads — by people who have actually used your product — is the most efficient acquisition channel in EdTech.
