We founded Univerlist with a bold ambition: to help shape the future of education by becoming one of the world’s most important edtech platforms. Launched in 2017 as our very first startup, Univerlist was not just the beginning of a company, but the beginning of our vision to build meaningful, large scale impact through technology. It marked the starting point of our journey and played a critical role in bringing Univenn to where it is today.
Understanding the challenge
When we started, the education ecosystem was fragmented. Students struggled to access trustworthy information, institutions lacked modern digital infrastructure, and many platforms were built without scalability or long term vision in mind. Education was full of potential, yet held back by outdated systems and disconnected tools. We believed that learning deserved better. Our goal was to create a platform that could simplify access, unify experiences, and support growth for millions of users worldwide.
Our approach
From the very beginning, Univerlist was built with scale, reliability, and flexibility at its core. We did not see it as a single destination, but as an infrastructure capable of powering many experiences. Alongside serving its own users, Univerlist was designed to provide robust backend and data infrastructure for many major platforms in the edtech space.
This focus allowed Univerlist to grow organically while maintaining performance and trust. Over time, the platform reached an average of 5 million visitors annually, reflecting both its relevance and its ability to meet real needs at scale. Every decision, from architecture to user experience, was guided by one principle: build something that lasts.
Learning from real users
User feedback shaped Univerlist at every stage. By listening closely to students, educators, and partners, we continuously refined the platform to better serve real world use cases. This iterative approach helped us understand how educational platforms must balance accessibility, depth, and reliability, lessons that would later influence all of our future products.
Beyond a platform
Univerlist is more than an edtech product. It is a cornerstone of our story and a proof of what is possible when vision meets execution. It taught us how to build at scale, how to earn trust, and how to design systems that support long term growth. What began as our first startup became the foundation upon which Univenn was built.
Univerlist represents where it all started. A belief in education, a commitment to technology, and a global mindset focused on impact. Its legacy continues to shape everything we build today.
