Pre-launch founders, solo owners and teams of two to nine
Audience-labelled learn-then-use guides for money, customers, delegation, protection and founder stages, linking existing Academy, gated Vault and Journal resources. Dated official obligation checklists cover federal, Illinois, Texas and California starting points, not legal or tax advice.
Founders and small-business owners defining roles and documenting how work is done
Free public library of cross-industry and industry-specific role definitions (responsibilities, example expectations, required vs preferred capabilities, tools, reporting line, occupational references) plus ready-made best-practice SOP templates that prefill the SOP Builder. Roles are functions that can be combined or outsourced, not hiring checklists; SOP templates must be adapted to local workflow and law.
Anyone — kids, teens, young adults, owners and executives
A gamified course in financial literacy, entrepreneurship, business ethics, statistics, negotiation and success habits — five tracks from age 5 to MBA level, with XP, streaks, badges, a leaderboard, simulations and certificates. Free levels are open to all; each track's Mastery level is a one-time paid unlock with worked examples, visual concept maps and applied practice labs. A separate Kids Academy (ages 4–10) offers simple lessons with a parent dashboard for profiles, progress and badges. Every lesson includes a case study, a personal example using your name, at least five quiz questions that are all taught in the lesson, outside resources, and one step toward your own Venture Blueprint.
Children ages 4–10 and their parents
A child-friendly version of the Academy with simple language, big visuals and short quizzes for ages 4–10. Parents can see how it works and read a free lesson together before signing in, creating child profiles, and following XP, streaks and badges on the parent dashboard.
Young learners and their parents
Male and female illustrated coaches narrate Kids Academy lessons, pause for practice, read quiz questions and transcribe spoken answers. Learners review and confirm the transcript and selected option before it joins the quiz; grading remains the existing end-of-quiz check. A signed-in parent and explicit recording consent are required for audio.
Young learners, families and new entrepreneurs
A story-driven seven-day business season by age level (lemonade, cookies, smoothies, coffee): read daily weather and competitor-price clues, learn from yesterday's results, set a goal, solve word problems and read customer feedback. Stage 2 adds an upgrade shop, a third location per business, surprise events, an animated scene and a 14-day advanced season for Academy members.
Academy learners across all five tracks
Age-appropriate lessons with concept diagrams, deeper explanations, worked examples and self-check practice. Floating male/female coaches narrate every track, explicitly pause for activities and support reviewed spoken quiz answers. Mastery teaching and narration remain available only after an unlock.
