Case Study: The Code Zone improves online coding classes with Whereby

Engaging the Future Why a Kids Coding Club Swapped Twilio for Whereby

The Code Zone, a kids coding club that grew into a global virtual learning platform, needed a better way to run online classes after moving from Zoom and struggling with a complex Twilio integration. Their team needed an embedded video solution that would work smoothly for young students on a wide range of devices, while keeping lessons simple, secure, and easy to access inside their own platform.

Whereby provided the embedded video solution, helping The Code Zone switch from Twilio in just two hours and resume classes the same day with no downtime. With Whereby’s API and SDK, they added features like programmatic room creation, cloud recording, device testing, and local volume controls, improving reliability and ease of use. The Code Zone reported 275% growth in 2023 and over 6,000 games created, while also noting better compatibility, fewer technical issues, and strong support from Whereby.
