2. The Yaaka offline app: which enables people to access www.yaaka.cc as an offline app on their gadget so one can learn anytime anywhere without needing access to the internet.

4. Yaaka Plus for Institutions where we deliver a networked Yaaka installation for a fee to an education institution- which networked Yaaka can be accessed by any number of learners and trainers connected to the same LAN or wireless network at any campus/ learning venue (not needing internet). We can optionally provide good branded tablets for schools ($100) who want learners and trainers to access learning and teaching at a central location at the institution on digital gadgets as well as on an online (off internet) platform.
