Gradia is an online marketplace for executive education. Professionals who want to grow their skills in areas like leadership, finance, AI, data, or general management usually start by searching through dozens of business school websites. Each one describes its programs differently, and none of them can be compared side by side. Gradia brings these programs together in one place. People can search by topic, format, length, and budget, see their options clearly, and base the decision on what actually fits them rather than on whoever ranks highest in a search result.
The platform launched in early 2026 with an initial focus on the DACH region, working directly with business schools to list their programs.
Gradia is also an example of a new way of building a company. It was created by a solo founder with no traditional engineering background, using AI development tools to design, build, and run the whole platform. That keeps the company lean and quick to iterate, and it reflects the same change in how people learn and work that Gradia helps its users navigate.

GoGradia's answer:
Gradia is built specifically for executive education, not general online courses. It gathers programs from business schools into one place and lets you compare them side by side by topic, format, length, and budget, which the schools' own websites are not set up to do.
GoGradia's answer:
The idea came from a recurring frustration. Researching any executive program meant opening a dozen business school sites, each describing its courses differently, with no way to compare them on price, format, or topic. The information was scattered by design. Gradia was built to fix that with a single place to compare programs across schools. It was created by a solo founder using AI development tools, which keeps it lean and quick to adapt to what schools and learners need.

GoGradia's answer:
Working professionals and managers looking for executive or professional development in areas like leadership, finance, AI, data, and general management. Many are mid-career or senior, often researching a program for themselves, sometimes with their employer funding it. Initial focus is the DACH region.
GoGradia's answer:
Most options are either a single school's website, which only shows its own programs, or a general course aggregator that treats executive education like consumer e-learning. Gradia is neutral and buyer-first. It compares programs across schools on the things that actually matter for a senior career decision, so you can choose based on fit rather than on whoever ranks highest in search.
GoGradia's answer:
Next.js, Supabase, and Vercel, with AI development tools used throughout the build process. The platform was designed and built end to end by a solo founder without a traditional engineering background.
