In today's fast-paced, content-driven world, the way we consume information, including essential financial skills, is undergoing a radical transformation.
Traditional teaching methods are giving way to highly personalized, algorithm-driven learning experiences. Industry Leaders are pivoting, reimagining how we learn and consume educational content.
At Zogo, we are becoming more like Neo in a matrixed world, leaning into the dynamics of building a learning platform, going beyond the constraints of static skills and lessons. We’re committed to transforming traditional learning into an experience that’s fun, sociable, interactive, and personal.
The Shift to Social and Digital Learning
Our learning paradigm has undergone a significant transformation in recent years, as we increasingly rely on social feeds, podcasts, and online news sources for our daily information.
The integration of AI into our lives—accessible at our fingertips and embedded in our online searches—has become even more pivotal. These platforms of user-generated content have reshaped not only how we consume information, but also our understanding of learning itself.
Content feeds, shaped by social signals and sophisticated algorithms, have emerged as the primary outlets through which people gauge what is important to learn as a life skill. This trend transcends mere convenience; it marks a fundamental shift in how individuals prefer to engage with and absorb knowledge.
Consider these statistics:
- 70% of millennials learn best through social media and blogs.
- 90% of college students globally have stated that using social media as an academic resource
- Teens spent less than 38 minutes per day on learning apps, where as the spent 90 minutes per day on Snapchat in 2024
- 30% of smartphone owners already use smartphones for on-the-go learning
- Podcast listeners spend an average of 7 hours per week listening to their favorite shows, often learning new skills and information in the process.
As reliance on content feeds for education and information sharing grows, demand for static, traditional lessons is diminishing. Gone are the days of large textbooks and powerpoint presentations with hundreds of text-heavy slides.
At Zogo, we’re embracing this change by shifting toward an active, dynamic content feed; one that evolves daily, gamifies learning, and rewards user engagement. Every piece of content is carefully vetted and reviewed to ensure a more personalized learning experience.

This evolution of feed-based content is something we’re actively testing. Our goal? To integrate learning seamlessly into your digital life, helping you skip the doomscrolling and instead up-level your ability to build a better financial future; one piece of content at a time.
