Trusted by 600+ teams getting their headspace back

Your instructors are global. Your back office shouldn’t be a full-time job

You’ve built something people learn from. Your content team, tutors, and engineers are spread across 15 countries. And somewhere between the LMS roadmap and the next cohort launch, someone is spending 5 hours a week on contracts, compliance, and making sure the person in Armenia actually got paid. Kleos handles all of it for distributed EdTech teams in 242 countries

The part of scaling an EdTech company nobody puts in the pitch deck

“We hired a great tutor in Kazakhstan. Now we can’t pay her.” The candidate was perfect. Niche expertise, right timezone, affordable rate. Then you discovered your payroll provider doesn’t support her country. You spent two weeks looking for a workaround. She almost took another offer.

“Our content lead in Serbia needs a contract for her visa application. We have nothing.” She’s been with you for 18 months. You’ve always paid her through Wise. Now the local immigration office wants a proper service agreement and proof of income. You have a Wise transaction history and a prayer.

“We’re paying 15 tutors different rates in different currencies and nobody knows what we actually spend.” Finance asked for a Q2 payroll breakdown. You opened the spreadsheet. Wise, PayPal, one manual transfer, two crypto wallets. The number you gave them was an estimate.

“The big platforms want €400 per person just to manage our freelance tutors.” You looked at the enterprise EOR solutions. They’re built for salaried employees, not the 40 tutors and content contributors you pay per course. The pricing structure made no sense. You went back to spreadsheets.

Hiring globally when your platform’s content and code need to stay yours

Company side

Service agreement

Kleos signs service agreements with every contributor — whether they’re building your LMS, designing curricula, recording lessons, or training your AI tutors. Every contract includes IP assignment, scope of work, NDA, and confidentiality clauses covering both code and educational content. Your platform, your courseware, and your learner data models are yours from day one.

Contractor side

Receive payment

Each person — engineer, content author, subject-matter expert, or instructional designer — decides how they receive payment in their personal dashboard: bank card, local bank transfer, or stablecoin. Their choice. Zero fees from contractors.

The result

Clean KYT

Your data room shows clean B2B service agreements covering software, content, and pedagogical IP. Your contributors see documented income for visas and banking. Your investors see compliant ownership of every line of code and every lesson plan. Accreditation reviews, content audits, and due diligence — all covered.

“We had 45 tutors across 12 countries. Finance kept asking us to consolidate vendors. We had 6. Now we have one invoice a month, everyone gets paid on time, and our content lead finally got her visa docs without us spending a week on it.”

Sarah C.

Head of operations

“Before Kleos, I was spending every second Tuesday manually processing payments and answering ‘where’s my money?’ messages. That’s just gone now.”

Charles R.

Founder

“Half our team is in Eastern Europe, half in LATAM. Other platforms don’t cover where we need. Kleos does — and the contracts are actually compliant, not just pretty PDFs.”

Questions EdTech teams actually ask

Fair questions, honest answers

Can Kleos handle contractors who work per-course, not per-month?

Yes. You can pay per course, per project or per month — payouts aren't locked to a monthly cycle.

We have instructors in countries other platforms don’t operate in. Can you cover them?

Most likely yes — Kleos covers 242 countries, including markets other platforms don't reach.

Our content creators need IP assignment contracts. Is that built in?

Yes — IP assignment is part of every contract by default, so the course content and materials your creators produce belong to you.

What documents can contractors get for visa or residency applications?

Contractors get named contracts and payment records from a recognised entity — the kind of documentation banks and immigration authorities accept for visa or residency applications.
