FindURClass is currently redesigning their platform, plans to launch it again by January next year. It allows users to search and shortlist classes based on interest, location, age and price. Further, users can also check out the schedules, pricing, images, descriptions for classes and class providers are provided online. With this, it also provides users with access to reviews and ratings and booking facility for the class online itself.
Currently, the website offers classes across ten categories for kids and for health and fitness training as well. It is also curating the website to provide more details on the class providers, with a target of over 5,000 providers and 50,000 classes.
As of now it allows free listing and going forward the startup plans to add up a subscription fee.
