TutorVerse — Project Story

Inspiration

As AI rose in education, we saw a gap between free online resources and voice-guided, interactive, engaging learning experiences. Students fall off because lessons are missing voice guidance, personalization, or affordable tests. I wanted to build a platform where AI makes learning come alive — voice narration, AI tutors, and blockchain-based credentials — while making simple learning free and paying only for premium resources and testing.

What it does

TutorVerse is a intelligent learning platform where:

• Free basic courses are available to students
• Voice-narrated lessons and video AI tutors make learning less robotic
• Premium lessons and tests can be accessed behind a paywall that is easy to pay
• User accounts and learning progress are stored securely
• Hosted on a custom domain for a professional look

How we built it

We developed TutorVerse with the strength of current tools and AI services:

• Frontend: Developed in Bolt.new with HTML/CSS/JS and React for interactive lessons
• Backend: Employed Supabase for storing test/lesson data and user authentication
• Voice AI: Implemented ElevenLabs API to turn lesson text into natural-sounding audio
• AI Tutor Videos: Implemented Tavus API to create video-based tutor comments
• Payments: Utilized RevenueCat for managing premium content subscriptions
• Deployment: Deployed with Netlify and hosted on a custom domain through IONOS/Entri

Challenges we encountered

• Installing several third-party APIs (Tavus, ElevenLabs, RevenueCat) and getting them to integrate nicely with Bolt.new's full-stack setup
• Handling media file uploads and playing them back without cluttering the UI
• Making sure paywall logic didn't ruin the free access parts
• Deploying to Netlify and getting the domain set up properly within a time constraint

Things that we're proud of

• Developed a full-stack AI learning platform within a matter of days
• Successfully onboarded Voice + Video AI to improve lesson delivery
• Managed to implement freemium monetization with RevenueCat without backend complications
• Rolled out a clean, branded deployment with a custom domain
• Made it scalable with Supabase and Bolt.new flexibility

What we learned

• How to develop an app in a matter of minutes with Bolt.new through frontend, backend, and deployment all in one place
• Direct integration with AI services (Tavus, ElevenLabs)
• Handling authentication and database storage on Supabase
• Integrating setting up mobile paywalls and subscriptions on RevenueCat
• Hosting full-stack projects on Netlify + IONOS Domains

What's next for TutorVerse

• Implement course recommendation engine on user progress and feedback
• Develop a certificate system on Algorand blockchain for authentic completion
• Scale to multilingual narration on ElevenLabs voice cloning
• Implement interactive quizzes with voice feedback
• Onboard real tutors and integrate live Q&A sessions
• Launch mobile version for Android/iOS
