Elevify organizes existing online content—videos, podcasts, books—into structured courses that combine video, audio, text and infographics, offering a free tier and a premium plan (R$84.90 per course in Brazil). The platform runs as an MVP and already lists roughly 30,000 courses per country with a target of 50,000 by August. Elevify has rapidly scaled internationally: it launched in January 2026 across 140 countries and 40 languages, and the U.S. is now its second-largest market after Brazil. User growth accelerated from 5,000 new students per month in January 2025 to 40,000 in July 2025 and 220,000 in March 2026; monthly revenue rose from $15k in July 2025 to $120k in March 2026, reaching breakeven that month. The company plans to expand into B2B and competitive exam preparatory courses, increase its headcount (aiming for about 15 people) and continue product development. Cofounded by Rangel Barbosa (CEO) and Cesar Silva, the team aims to scale to millions of users while keeping an intentionally small core team.
