The gap we close

Talent is everywhere. Access isn't.

Kids and teens in low-income, inner-city neighborhoods are hungry to create — but pro software is expensive and confusing, and one-off workshops disappear after a weekend. So the creativity stays locked up.

BatRabbi drops the jargon and owns one niche: a plain-English creative media school for underserved youth — affordable, always-on, and built to turn skill into income.

How BatRabbi works

Learn. Create. Earn.

One simple path takes a young creator from their first lesson to their first paycheck.

What's inside

Everything a young creator needs — nothing they don't.

We built the features the big tools leave out: teaching, accessibility, safety, and a real way to earn.

Plain-English lessons

No pro jargon, no 400-button menus. Every skill — framing, light, angles, editing — is taught in kid-friendly language with a clear next step.

vs. Adobe complexity

Phone-first creation

You don't need a $2,000 camera. Every lesson works with the phone in your pocket, so any young creator can start today.

Built for accessibility

Learn & Earn, together

The part other tools skip: guardian-approved, age-appropriate ways to turn finished work into real income — briefs, print sales and licensing.

The missing piece

Real portfolio + mentor notes

Every project builds a portfolio you actually own, with friendly feedback from working creators so skills keep leveling up.

vs. one-off workshops

School & program bundles

Classroom-ready lesson paths, progress dashboards for teachers, and blended license pricing for schools and community programs.

For educators

Safe by design

Under-13 accounts are guardian-managed, earnings need guardian approval, and there's no open social feed. We never sell personal data.

Guardian-first
How we're different

Not another design app. A school that pays off.

Great tools already exist — but none are built end-to-end for young, underserved creators who want to learn and earn.

Stories from the community

Real creators. Real momentum.

Sample stories shown for illustration while we onboard our founding families.

My daughter went from filming random clips to shooting a neighbor's quinceañera — and she got paid for it. BatRabbi made it feel possible.

I run an after-school media club with almost no budget. The school bundle gave my students a real curriculum and a reason to keep showing up.

I'm 13 and I sold my first three photo prints last month. The lessons are actually fun and I finally get how lighting works.

Frequently asked questions

BatRabbi is designed for young creators aged 6–16. Lessons are leveled — playful and visual for younger kids, and more advanced (composition, lighting, editing, storytelling) as they grow. No prior experience needed.

No. Every lesson works with a smartphone. If a family or school has a camera, great — but our whole approach is built so a phone in your pocket is enough to start creating professional-looking work.

Adobe Creative Cloud is powerful but built for professionals; Canva is a design tool, not a media school. BatRabbi is a plain-English, step-by-step creative media school for photography and videography — with real teaching, a guided path, and ways for young creators to actually earn from their work.

As students finish projects they build a real portfolio. BatRabbi opens age-appropriate, guardian-approved opportunities — local shoots, community briefs, print sales and licensing — with safety, consent and payouts handled for families. Learning and earning happen side by side.

Safety is the foundation. Accounts for under-13s are guardian-managed, earning opportunities require guardian approval, and there is no open social feed. We never sell personal data.

The creation subscription is $19/month per family — priced intentionally low for accessibility. Schools and community programs get blended license bundles with volume pricing. Join the waitlist for early-access pricing.
