The problem it solves

You finish a course or training and then have to manually design a certificate, double-check the email address is real, and send it out one at a time. Fake or mistyped emails mean certificates bounce or never get delivered.

Who it fits

A course creator, training provider, or online academy issuing completion certificates.

How it works

  1. A certificate request comes in with the recipient's details
  2. The recipient's email is verified as real and not disposable
  3. A designed certificate is generated with their name and a unique ID
  4. The certificate is converted into an image and emailed to them
  5. The request is logged to a spreadsheet for your records

What you need

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.
