Everyone wins with PeerLoop

A platform designed for students, teachers, and course creators alike.

For Students

Learn from peers who get it

Your teacher recently mastered the same material. They remember the struggles, understand the confusion, and know exactly how to help you succeed.

For Student-Teachers

Earn while teaching

Turn your knowledge into income. Get certified after completing a course, then earn 70% of each enrollment when you teach new students.

For Creators

Build a teaching community

Create your course once, then let certified student-teachers scale your impact. You earn royalties while your community grows organically.

What our students say

Real results from real students who learned, completed, and many who now teach.

I was drowning in AI tool announcements and felt like I was missing out constantly. This course gave me a framework to think clearly about what I actually need. Now I ignore 90% of new tools without guilt.

AI Tools Overview

Guy helped me realize I don't need 15 AI subscriptions. I narrowed down to 3 tools I actually use daily and cancelled the rest. Saved $200/month and got more productive.
