Product thinking
We sit with teachers and read the worksheets they already hand out before writing any code. Most of what Itqan does came off those pages.
مُدَرِّس
Mudarris is Arabic for teacher.
We build software for learning,
and we build it to last.
An independent Australian studio. We build and run our own education products. The first one is Itqan, a Tajweed practice app.
What we do.
All four done by the same person.
Interface design
Calm, legible interfaces that respect attention. Large type, plain language, one thing to do per screen.
Engineering
Web, iOS, and Android come out of one Kotlin codebase. The screens are written once and shared across all three.
Applied AI
AI drafts quiz questions and reads photographed worksheets. The teacher checks every question before a student sees it, and no other part of the app calls a model.
Our flagship
Itqan — Tajweed practice, every day.
Learners practise the rules of Qur’anic recitation with a rule a day and self-tests they can take whenever they like. Teachers and madrasas get quiz drafting, worksheet photo capture, and grading with the answer key beside each response.
Web app live today; iOS & Android on the way.
How we build.
Four things we hold to.
We use what we ship.
Itqan gets used here for real Tajweed practice before a release goes out. A screen that annoys us in daily use gets changed before anyone else sees it.
Small on purpose.
One studio, one product so far. A decision usually gets made the same day it comes up, because there is nobody to route it through.
Design and code, same hands.
Whoever draws a screen also builds it, and answers the email when it breaks.
Launch is the beginning.
We run what we build and keep running it. A madrasa plans a whole year around its tools, so those tools have to still work in a year.
There’s no contact form here. The address below reaches a person.
Say hello.
If you teach with Itqan, or you want to talk about software for learning, write to us. We read everything.
