Ryan Laverty serves as co-founder/President of Arist, a text message learning platform working with organizations to create & deploy text message courses.

One of Ryan's co-founders, Maxine Anderson, was featured on Episode #8 of Building Out Loud.

This conversation is an interesting follow-up to Maxine's episode because it offers a new perspective on a familiar startup.

In our conversation, Ryan and I discuss helping organizations create engaging, accessible learning materials and the impact that Y Combinator had on Arist's business model.
