Which path fits you?
Choose Lenitera if
- You are an independent tutor or run a small practice, and the learning plan is central to your work.
- You want adaptive steps, tests, homework, and a student portal with magic link access in one place.
- You can collect payments outside the product for now.
Stay with Teachworks or Wise if
- Teachworks or Wise already covers the operational tools you need, such as billing, payroll, Zoom, and agency management.
- Student invoicing, payment collection, or multi-tutor payroll are non-negotiable today.
- You are optimizing a tutoring business OS — not an individual learning plan.

FAQ
- Tutors often shortlist both. We show an honest A vs B matrix and add Lenitera as a third option when the pain is learning progress — not only scheduling and billing.
- No, not as a full agency CRM or Zoom-centered operations platform. Lenitera is a learning-path platform. If billing automation or payroll is your primary need, keep Teachworks or Wise.
- Student invoicing, payment collection, multi-tutor payroll, and AI-written parent reports. AI lesson summaries are planned.
- No. Claims follow public product pages. When unsure, we use cautious wording instead of inventing features.
