Learn Code Online (LCO), founded by Hitesh Choudhary in 2017, provides high-quality, affordable technical courses and boot camps for students and professionals. LCO addresses the challenges faced by individuals needing to upskill without the costs and inconvenience of traditional methods.
Initially hosting educational content on YouTube, Hitesh realized the limitations of the platform: lack of structured learning, no control over content security, and challenges in building a sales funnel. Seeking a more secure and scalable platform, he partnered with Learnyst to build LCO’s online academy.
Learnyst provided LCO with a user-friendly LMS, secure DRM protection to prevent piracy, discussion forums, and scalable infrastructure. This allowed LCO to offer a superior value proposition with structured courses, automatic certificates, and interactive student engagement through forums and mock tests.
In 2022, Learn Code Online (LCO) was acquired by PhysicsWallah (PW), marking a significant step in PW's growth within the ed-tech space. This acquisition validated LCO’s success in delivering affordable, high-quality technical education to students and professionals alike.
Following this, LCO’s founder, Hitesh Choudhary, launched a new venture, Chai Aur Code, a platform focused on sharing coding knowledge in a more relaxed, community-driven setting. Hitesh is excited about this fresh start, building upon the success and learnings from LCO.
Learn Code Online (LCO) leveraged the power of mobile apps to make education accessible anytime, anywhere. With over 100K+ downloads and a 4.6-star rating on the Google Play Store, LCO’s mobile app provided a seamless learning experience. Powered by Learnyst, the app ensured secure content delivery, fast video streaming, and an intuitive user interface. The mobile app became a key driver in LCO’s growth, helping it reach a wider audience and enhance student engagement, ultimately contributing to its remarkable success.
