Our journey in creating meaningful learning experiences
Thank you for choosing our app! We're truly grateful to have you with us on this journey. Our app is designed as a personalized learning tool, crafted to help you study in the most effective and tailored way possible.
The idea was inspired by a simple childhood memory — a small bear that brought immense joy during challenging times. Just as that bear gave us hope, this app brings hope to us as well.
"We want to share that same hope with you, not just as a study tool, but as a companion that supports and motivates you."
But the story goes deeper.
One day, the founder's sister was studying and casually mentioned: "I'm using this app right now… but I feel like I need something more — something different."
That simple remark planted a seed. The founder thought, "Why not just build one for her? And for myself… and maybe for others who need it too."
So he opened his favorite code editor, typed a few commands into the terminal, and spun up a fresh Laravel project. That afternoon, he poured his energy into building the very first version — a minimal, simple prototype. By the end of the day, he showed it to his sister. She smiled, gave feedback, and over the following week, the app took shape into its first functional form.
At that point, it worked. But something was still missing.
The founder realized this wasn't just about building another study app. It was about creating something compassionate — a tool that could feel like a companion. He thought back to the teddy bear that had been by his and his sister's side for over 16 years, a source of comfort through tough days. Why not weave that same feeling into the app itself?
So he asked his sister to sketch a mascot — the bear that would become the heart of the project.
From there, the founder kept refining the app day in and day out. He added a subscription system, integrated payments, redesigned the interface, debugged countless issues, and continuously polished the experience. Inspired by his interests in psychology, cognitive science, and even MBTI theory, he began layering in features designed to help users not just study, but learn in a way that felt personal and encouraging.
The journey wasn't easy. For two years, he worked with almost no social interaction beyond family and grocery store clerks, while also balancing the pressure of his German degree and handling outside criticism. Still, he didn't stop. What began as code written with bare hands grew into BearBei — now strengthened by the help of AI, redesigned into a 2.0 interface, and backed by over 130 hours of focused effort in just the past three weeks. Today, BearBei isn't just an app. It's the embodiment of resilience, creativity, and compassion — built to support learners everywhere, just like a trusted companion.
One of our dreams is to help every user not only achieve their academic goals but also to become lifelong learners who enjoy the process.

When building this app, we've been through countless challenges, and there were many times when we wanted to give up. It was your kind words and unwavering support that guided us here.
As the founder of this app, there are countless people I would like to thank, but I want to particularly express my deepest gratitude to my parents, who have supported my dreams and everything I do. It is only because of your unconditional support that I was able to continue coding this entire project when facing countless challenges ahead of me.
To every user, tester, and supporter — you are the reason we keep going. Your feedback shapes our improvements, your encouragement fuels our motivation, and your trust in our vision inspires us to build something truly meaningful.
