NotesChaiyo is a student notes marketplace — share clear notes, discover community tips, and earn coins when uploads help someone else pass.

The product is built like a study app, not a PDF dump: page previews, fullscreen gallery, pinch-to-zoom, chapters, bookmarks, comments, and downloads live in one note viewer.

The full loop covers Home, Explore, Upload, Wallet, Profile, chat, community posts, and alerts — with coins from downloads, views, daily tasks, referrals, and a contributor leaderboard.

The marketing site at finora.lol/about handles waitlist signup, feature catalog, and how-it-works — early access for iOS and Android.

Technical Challenges

Study-App Note Viewing

Challenge

Students bounce when notes feel like a dumped PDF instead of something they can actually study from.

Solution

A dedicated viewer with page previews, fullscreen gallery, pinch-to-zoom, chapter lists, save-to-gallery, and comments in one place.

Earn Without Breaking Trust

Challenge

Rewarding uploads can invite spam if coins are easy to farm and quality is invisible.

Solution

Coins tied to helpful downloads and engagement, plus daily tasks, referrals, wallet history, and a monthly contributor leaderboard.

Discovery Across Subjects

Challenge

Notes only help if the right student finds the right chapter before an exam.

Solution

Subject chips, ranked feeds, class/chapter/college filters, and cards that surface likes, comments, and bookmarks.
