Show HN: EduVibz – Turning School Curricula into Music (Beta)
Hi HN!
After a year of building solo—balancing late nights, a demanding day job, family commitments, and countless cups of coffee - I’m excited (and relieved!) to announce the beta launch of EduVibz.
EduVibz transforms traditional curriculum topics into catchy, educational songs to help students learn more easily and effectively. I've started lean by covering three subjects from the South African CAPS Grade 12 curriculum, with additional Grade 12 and Grade 8 subjects already created and soon to be uploaded. The intention behind this initial release is to gather user feedback to refine both the music and the content, ensuring it’s genuinely impactful before expanding to more grades and other curricula.
Part of the reason it took this long was securing a provisional patent, given that (to my knowledge) this is the first platform of its kind to attempt delivering curriculum-aligned educational songs at scale, while keeping content accurate, relevant, and continually updated.
I’ve learned a lot building this so far, made my fair share of mistakes, and recognize that I probably could’ve launched leaner. But I'm committed to improving and learning as I go.
You can check it out at www.eduvibz.com. Please note: a quick, free signup (just name, email, and password) is required to access the music library due to our streaming setup.
I'd greatly appreciate any feedback on the concept, the songs, the UX/UI, or anything else you feel could help EduVibz become better and more impactful. If you're passionate about EdTech or have experience scaling early-stage educational products, your insights would be particularly invaluable.
Thanks so much for taking a look. I’m looking forward to hearing your thoughts!
