About the client

Client background

LearnSmart is a Bangladeshi EdTech platform serving corporate clients with professional development training. They had been running courses on Moodle for 3 years but the platform was slow, the UI was dated, and it couldn't support the video-heavy content their instructors were producing.

The problem

The challenge

Moodle's UX was so poor that learner completion rates sat at 18%. Instructors found uploading content cumbersome and had no analytics on where students dropped off. The lack of a branded experience was costing them enterprise contracts — two potential clients specifically mentioned the platform quality as their reason for declining. LearnSmart needed a fully custom, modern LMS that felt premium.

How we started

Discovery & planning

Product Discovery Call

2-hour call with CEO and lead instructors. Reviewed Moodle pain points, gathered 22 specific feature requests, and agreed on the 6 core modules for v1.

Competitive Analysis

Benchmarked against Teachable, Thinkific, and Kajabi. Identified 4 differentiators LearnSmart wanted: Bangla UI, local payment support, Zoom-native integration, and custom certificates.

Architecture & Hosting Decision

Chose Next.js for SSR/SEO, AWS S3 + CloudFront for video delivery (adaptive bitrate), and PostgreSQL on RDS for structured course/progress data.

Design Sprint

5-day design sprint produced the full Figma prototype. LearnSmart's CEO and 3 instructors reviewed it — approved after one revision round on the course builder UI.

What we built

Technical solution

We built a full-stack LMS with a dual interface: a student-facing course player with adaptive video streaming and progress tracking, and an instructor dashboard for content management, analytics, and live session scheduling. The platform supports cohort-based courses (fixed start date) and self-paced courses, with automatic certificate generation on completion.

Adaptive video player (HLS via AWS CloudFront) with playback speed, subtitles, and resume position

Quiz engine: multiple choice, fill-in-blank, timed assessments, and auto-grading

Auto-generated PDF certificates with student name, course name, score, and digital signature

Zoom SDK integration — instructors schedule live sessions directly inside the LMS

Instructor analytics: per-lesson drop-off rates, quiz score distributions, completion funnels

Stripe + bKash checkout with individual and corporate (invoice) payment options

Discussion threads per lesson, direct instructor messaging, and peer review assignments

Finally a platform that our trainers and students actually enjoy using. The completion rate tripling was unexpected — we thought it was a content problem. It turned out to be a platform problem. Super Soft Ltd. solved it.
