How did the idea of Headway come?
Ever since I can remember, self-education has been a significant part of my life. I wanted to learn so many things but couldn’t find the most efficient, productive, and enjoyable tool for self-growth. Also, I’ve realized that there’re millions of inquiring minds with the same problem as mine. So what was the best solution? To create such a tool for each of us. That's how the Headway app appeared. Later on, we grow into a multiproduct startup.
