By tutors, for tutors.
We’re a small team in Montréal making the work around tutoring simple, so tutors can spend their time teaching.
Why we built Plumy
Plumy started with Chinmoy. A tutor for years, he noticed that the teaching was the easy part. Around every lesson came everything else: finding a time, sending the video link, sharing worksheets and keeping notes, spread across texts, emails and a handful of apps.
His engineering studies have taught him to look at how work flows and to cut the steps that slow it down. Tutoring had far too many, and most tutors lose hours to them every week.
It doesn’t end with the lesson, either. Students text their tutor’s personal phone at all hours, which weighs most on tutors who are students themselves and already have a lot to manage.
In May 2025 Chinmoy brought the idea to Cristian, who designed and built one place for all of it. The goal: a tutor shares one link or code with a student, and from then on everything they need is in Plumy, with no other app to juggle and no personal number to give out.
Emon joined in 2026 to help build it, and the three of us still work toward the same thing: less time managing tutoring, more time teaching.
Who we are
Chinmoy Dhar
Co-founder, tutoring and growth
I’m a tutor with years of experience, and I study operations and logistics engineering at ÉTS. Plumy began with my idea to make the logistics of tutoring simple. Now I work with the tutors who use it, pass what they need on to the team and bring Plumy to new audiences.
Cristian Andrei
Co-founder, product and technology
I studied software engineering at McGill, and I brought Plumy to life, from the video classroom to scheduling and all the other features that tutors need. I worked to bring these tools to students and tutors alike at the lowest possible cost, so that everybody can use them.

Emon Dhar
Developer
I studied software engineering at ÉTS, and I’ve tutored myself. Now I help build Plumy. I was captivated by Chinmoy and Cristian’s vision of a simpler way to run a tutoring practice, and I wanted to help make it real.

What we care about
Human connection
More and more people learn alone, from home. We build Plumy to support real tutors, so the bond between a tutor and a student stays at the heart of learning, online or in person.
Free for students, fair for tutors
Students use Plumy free, and tutors can start free. Paid plans add room for more students and the features that cost us the most to run, like recordings and AI notes, so Plumy can reach as many people as possible.
Built with tutors
We build Plumy with the independent tutors who use it, to give them the support and tools they need. If you’re a tutor and Plumy doesn’t yet do something you need, tell us, and we’ll do our best to build it.
