Fényportál — Integrated Education & Healing Platform
Web + Mobile App with School & Post‑Graduation Value
Presented by: ImOK Team • Date: 2025-10-09
Why Now — The Problem & Opportunity
Current PainPoints
Educational institutions face mounting challenges with fragmented systems. Schedules live in one place, course materials in another, and student evaluations scatter across spreadsheets and email threads. This disconnection creates operational blind spots that obscure teacher performance metrics, student participation patterns, and financial balances.
After graduation, alumni lose access to the valuable techniques and practices they've learned. Without a centralized repository, continued growth becomes difficult, and the institution loses ongoing engagement with its community of practitioners.
Market Timing
Today's learners expect seamless hybrid experiences—web platforms that work flawlessly on mobile devices, multilingual interfaces that respect cultural diversity, and privacy-first architectures that protect sensitive data. The demand for integrated educational platforms has never been higher.
Schools investing in unified systems now position themselves as forward-thinking leaders, attracting students who value both technological sophistication and educational excellence. The window for early adoption advantage is open.
Target Users & Roles — Who This Serves
Students
Current learners accessing courses, schedules, evaluations, and techniques during their educational journey.

This role-based architecture creates security without sacrificing usability, and flexibility without creating chaos.

School Features — Operational Intelligence
Teacher Performance Insights
Complete teaching history with aggregated student ratings reveals patterns and excellence. Administrators identify top performers and support those needing development through data-driven conversations.
Catalog of Courses and Classes
Easily browse and manage a comprehensive catalog of courses, class schedules, and program offerings. Students can find classes by date, topic, or program, while administrators can update listings with ease.
Student Participation & Finance
Track every course attended, payments received, and outstanding balances in real-time. Automated reminders reduce manual follow-up while maintaining respectful communication with students.
These features transform administrative work from reactive firefighting to proactive planning. Regional managers gain unprecedented visibility into resource allocation, helping them make informed decisions about teacher assignments, course offerings, and capacity planning. The financial transparency reduces disputes and accelerates collections, while the performance data elevates teaching quality across the entire institution. For the first time, administrators can answer critical questions instantly: Who's our highest-rated teacher in Vienna? Which students need payment reminders this week? Who can cover a class in Bucharest on short notice?
Student Experience — During Studies
Clear, Organized Learning
Every course presents students with a concise summary, complete schedule, and detailed lecturer information. No more hunting through emails or wondering what comes next—everything lives in one intuitive interface.
When life happens and a session is missed, students immediately see make-up options available in upcoming months. This flexibility acknowledges real-world constraints while keeping students on track toward completion.
Smart notifications keep everyone informed: changes to schedules, upcoming classes (T-3 days), and important updates arrive as timely push notifications or emails. Students stay connected without feeling overwhelmed by constant alerts.

After Graduation
Lifelong Learning Continues
Graduation doesn't mean goodbye. Alumni gain access to a comprehensive Techniques Library—a searchable, filterable repository of every method and practice covered during their studies. Each technique includes short descriptions, step-by-step instructions, practice notes, and even recommended music for enhanced experience.
Search & Filter
Find techniques by category, difficulty, duration, or intended outcome
Detailed Guidance
Access complete instructions with variations and practitioner notes
Enhanced Practice
Discover recommended audio tracks that complement each technique
Continuous Refinement
Return anytime to deepen understanding and improve execution
This post-graduation value proposition transforms your institution from a place of temporary learning to a lifelong resource. Alumni maintain their connection to your community, recommend your programs to others, and continue deriving value years after completing their studies. This creates powerful word-of-mouth marketing and strengthens your institutional brand as students become lifelong advocates.
Meditations & Healing — Holistic Wellness
Meditation Library
A curated collection of guided meditations available as audio and video files gives students and alumni on-demand access to transformative practices. Users create personal playlists, bookmark favorites, and track their meditation journey over time.
Progress tracking visualizes consistency and growth, encouraging regular practice while celebrating milestones. Whether someone prefers five-minute breathing exercises or hour-long deep sessions, the library accommodates all preferences and experience levels.
Healer Directory & Booking
The platform hosts a comprehensive directory of certified healers and therapists, each with detailed profile pages showcasing their specialties, approach, and availability. Students and alumni can browse, compare, and book sessions directly through the platform.
Intake forms and consent documentation happen digitally before appointments, streamlining administrative work. After sessions, healers can add private notes to their records, maintaining professional continuity while respecting client privacy.

Phase 2 Enhancement: While meditation library basics appear in MVP, the full healer booking system with intake forms, time zone management, and advanced progress tracking represents a high-value Phase 2 addition that significantly deepens community engagement.

Continuous Improvement
Insights drive teaching enhancements and recognition
Post-course evaluations close the critical feedback loop between teaching delivery and quality improvement. Students rate courses on a simple 1-10 scale and provide anonymous comments, ensuring honest, actionable feedback without fear of repercussion.
Aggregated scores create comprehensive lecturer profiles visible to administrators. High performers receive recognition, while those with lower scores get targeted support. The system can surface curated testimonials for public display, turning positive feedback into powerful marketing content.
Visualizations in the admin dashboard reveal trends over time—is a particular course consistently rated lower? Has a teacher's performance improved after professional development? Data transforms subjective quality discussions into objective, constructive conversations.
Search & Discovery — Finding What Matters
Intelligent Search Across Everything
Global search functionality spans the entire platform—courses, meditations, healers, and techniques. Students find what they need through natural language queries, while sophisticated filters refine results based on specific criteria.
Category Filters
Browse by subject area, healing modality, or content type
Experience Level
Match content to beginner, intermediate, or advanced practitioners
Duration Options
Find sessions fitting available time, from quick practices to extended courses
Language Selection

Nearest Teacher
Prioritize results by geographic proximity and current availability
The platform understands multilingual content relationships, so searching in German might surface relevant results originally created in Hungarian if translations exist. This semantic awareness creates a truly international experience without language barriers limiting discovery. Users spend less time searching and more time learning.

Admin CMS
Laravel Nova interface for managing all core entities and content
This MVP delivers immediate operational value while establishing the foundation for future enhancements. Every included feature has been selected for its impact on daily workflows and user satisfaction. The scope is ambitious yet achievable, providing a complete experience that doesn't feel like a "minimum" product. Users will be able to manage their entire educational journey from enrollment through graduation feedback, while administrators gain the operational visibility they've been missing.
MVP Effort — Investment & Timeline
This investment delivers a production-ready platform capable of serving your entire institution. Compare this to the hidden costs of fragmented systems: staff time reconciling data between platforms, student frustration leading to dropouts, administrative errors from manual processes, and lost alumni engagement. Fényportál pays for itself through operational efficiency gains within the first year of deployment, while positioning your institution for sustainable growth and enhanced reputation.
Development Breakdown
The MVP requires 1,048 total hours of development effort, including a 10% project management and contingency buffer to handle unexpected challenges and scope refinements. This estimate reflects a blended team rate and assumes parallel workstreams where possible.
At a ballpark rate of €54 per hour, the total investment comes to €56,592. However, actual costs may vary based on your preferred development partner and geographic location. A reasonable range using rates between €37.50 and €62.50 per hour yields a budget of €39,300 to €65,500.
Important note: This estimate excludes content creation, professional translations, and custom integrations beyond those specified. These represent separate line items that depend on your specific requirements and existing systems.

Timeline note: The proposed MVP timeline assumes timely delivery of content and decisions from your team (page copy, course summaries, technique descriptions, logos/images/audio, translations, and approvals). Delays or changes to these inputs may shift milestones. To stay on track, we recommend a content freeze 2 weeks before handoff and feedback within 2 business days for each review cycle.

Visual Direction — Design Philosophy
Calm & Focused Aesthetic
Clean interfaces with generous whitespace reduce cognitive load. Soft, nature-inspired accent colors—think sage greens, sky blues, and warm earth tones—create a peaceful atmosphere conducive to learning and healing.
Inclusive & Representative
Photography and illustrations showcase diverse ages, ethnicities, and body types. Students see themselves reflected in the platform, fostering belonging. Local cultural context informs regional customizations.
Accessible by Design
High contrast ratios ensure readability for visually impaired users. Screen reader optimization makes every feature navigable by voice. Keyboard shortcuts provide alternatives to touch and mouse interactions.
Typography & Hierarchy
A carefully chosen type system creates clear information hierarchy. Consistent sizing, spacing, and weights guide users through complex information effortlessly. Fonts support multiple languages and special characters.
This visual direction balances professionalism with warmth, technology with humanity. The design system scales from mobile screens to large desktop displays without losing its essential character. Every color, icon, and interaction pattern serves user needs first—beauty emerges from purposeful design, not decoration for its own sake.
