AMIZONER is a full-fledged attendance planner with colour-coded timetable, daily attendance alerts, holiday reminders, and strategic bunk information for each course.

It's most useful feature was a simple algorithm that determined how many classes you could safely miss to maintain your minimum required attendance percentage.

Despite it's rough design and basic functionality, It grew popular because it was useful. Within an year, the app had over 3 millions views a month.

Students were hooked because it made their lives easy. It certainly made my schedule more convenient to manage.

💸 Learning about business

AMIZONER was my figurative lemonade stand to learn a thing or two about building a product.

• I learnt to monetise using ads which would pay for my backend costs.
• I started receiving hundreds of emails with feature requests and bug reports which I would filter through and prioritise.
• With the growing popularity of the app, I started partnerships with other college-based initiatives.
• I learnt to sell and market the app through direct interactions, posters, forums, blogs, social pages and whatever I could get my hands on.
• And I tracked the growth through a number of analytics tools.

It was fun.
