Schoo is a freemium online learning service founded in 2011 and headquartered in Tokyo, Japan. It provides mixed-format courses through the web, iOS, and Android, with subscription access, mobile apps, and offline access. The free Open membership offers approximately 1,000 recorded lessons and daily live lessons. Premium monthly and Premium annual plans list 9,000 recorded lessons, live lessons, playback-speed control, and lesson downloads in the mobile apps. Schoo for Business lists more than 9,000 recorded lessons and requires at least 20 IDs. The service includes a seven-day trial and supports business plans as well as individual memberships. Learners can use recorded material for on-demand study or join live sessions. Premium descriptions specify mobile-app downloads, while offline access is listed for the service overall. Prices for the listed plans are not provided. Plan choices therefore center on library size, live access, downloads, and whether multiple business IDs are needed.
