You create a school with its own address and design, fill it with courses, accept payments (commercial schools only) and track students' progress. The website, apps, payments and file storage are ready to use — you don't need to assemble them from separate services. ## How a school works Each school is a separate space with its own students, staff, courses and settings. * **Address.** The school opens right away at an address like `my-school.exode.biz`. You can connect your own domain later. Learn more in [School address and domain](https://faq.exode.biz/en/general/school-creation/domain.md). * **Accounts.** Students and staff register in a specific school. An account in one school is not linked to accounts in other schools on Exode. * **Owner and team.** The person who created the school becomes its owner and gets all permissions. You grant permissions to other staff members yourself — see [User roles](https://faq.exode.biz/en/general/roles-permissions/user-roles.md). * **School type.** A school either sells courses or trains a company's employees. The type determines the sections of the interface — see [School type](https://faq.exode.biz/en/general/school-creation/school-type.md). * **Tariff.** Your Exode subscription sets the school's limits: the number of students, courses, staff members and storage space. See [Subscription and tariffs](https://faq.exode.biz/en/online-schools/getting-started/subscription-plans.md). In a corporate school, the tariff is changed by an Exode manager — see [Company connection and setup](https://faq.exode.biz/en/corporate/setup.md). ## Who it is for > **Online schools and experts** > > Create and sell courses, accept payments, offer installments and subscriptions to students. > **Companies** > > Employee training: company structure, course assignments, closed registration. > **School team** > > Curators, teachers and managers: practice checking, work with students and groups. > **Students** > > Take courses in the browser, in the mobile app and in the desktop app. ## What you can do on the platform | Section | What you do | Learn more | | - | - | - | | Courses | Video courses, text courses and course bundles.

If a feature > is not included in your tariff, the platform offers to upgrade the tariff when you try to use it (in a corporate > school — to request a tariff upgrade through support). ## Interface languages The school interface is available in Russian, Uzbek, English and Karakalpak. You choose which of them students see — see [Languages](https://faq.exode.biz/en/general/school-setup/languages.md). ## Where the school works | Where | What it looks like | | - | - | | Browser | The school website at its address.

When you create a school, demo access is turned on — you don't need a card for it. The end date of the demo period > is shown in **My school → Subscription and tariff** (commercial schools only). Learn more in > [Subscription and tariffs](https://faq.exode.biz/en/online-schools/getting-started/subscription-plans.md). > **Do I need my own website or hosting?** > > No. The school works right away at `name.exode.biz` over a secure HTTPS connection. You can connect your own domain > later through support — see [School address and domain](https://faq.exode.biz/en/general/school-creation/domain.md). > **How many schools can I create?** > > One school per account. If you need another one, write to Exode support. > **Can a student study in several schools with one account?** > > No. An account is created in a specific school. To study in another school on Exode, the student needs > to register there too. > **Can one school both sell courses and train employees?** > > A school has one type. A school that sells courses supports prices and payments. A corporate school (company) > works without sales: all its courses are free, and employees are assigned to training. Learn more in > [School type](https://faq.exode.biz/en/general/school-creation/school-type.md). > **Can students study from a phone?** > > Yes. The school website works in a mobile browser, and students can also install the mobile app for > iOS or Android and choose your school in it. > **What happens to the school if I don't pay for the subscription?** > > After the paid period ends, the school has a 3-day grace period. Then the website closes for students. > Courses, students and settings are not deleted: after payment, the school opens again right away. > In a corporate school, access is extended through support — see > [Company connection and setup](https://faq.exode.biz/en/corporate/setup.md). > **Can I remove the “Powered by exode” label at the bottom of the website?** > > The label is hidden if your tariff or the school's individual terms provide for it. Ask support > which option suits you. *** *Updated: 2026-10-15 18:08 UTC* This documentation is built and hosted on [Mintlify](https://mintlify.com), a developer documentation platform.
