Interactive coding education platform where students edit code inside tutorial videos; 120K+ monthly learners with YC backing competing with Codecademy for self-taught web development.
Scrimba is an interactive coding education platform that revolutionizes how programming is taught in video format — enabling students to edit and run code directly within tutorial videos, transforming passive watching into active coding practice through proprietary screencasting technology. Founded in 2017 in Oslo, Norway and backed by Y Combinator, Scrimba raised $400,000 and grew to 120,000+ monthly active learners with $1.9 million in revenue as of October 2024, serving the global population learning web development and programming.\n\nScrimba's core innovation is the "scrim" — an interactive screencast where the code editor is embedded within the video. When a tutorial plays, learners can pause at any point and edit the code directly in the player, test their changes, and continue — creating a hands-on learning experience where the video content and practice environment are the same thing. This eliminates the context switching between watching a video, opening a separate code editor, and typing out examples that makes traditional video tutorials less effective for kinesthetic learners.\n\nIn 2025, Scrimba competes in the online coding education market with freeCodeCamp (free self-paced learning), The Odin Project (free full-stack curriculum), Codecademy, Pluralsight, and Frontend Masters for self-taught developer education. Scrimba's interactive format is a genuine differentiator — the ability to immediately practice within the video context produces better learning retention than passive watching. The platform focuses primarily on front-end web development (JavaScript, React, CSS) which represents the highest-demand entry point for self-taught developers. The 2025 strategy focuses on expanding the course library, growing the community features (student projects, peer learning), and converting free learners to the Scrimba Pro subscription through the demonstrated value of the interactive format.
Richmond VA tobacco and nicotine (NYSE: MO) ~$9.7B net revenue FY2024; Marlboro 40%+ US cigarette share, on! oral pouch competing with Zyn, 50%+ operating margins, ABI stake, competing with Reynolds/BAT.
Altria Group, Inc. is a Richmond, Virginia-based tobacco and nicotine company — publicly traded on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE: MO) as an S&P 500 Consumer Staples component — manufacturing and selling cigarettes (Marlboro — the best-selling cigarette brand in the United States), smokeless tobacco (Copenhagen, Skoal, Red Seal, Husky chewing tobacco/moist snuff brands), oral nicotine pouches (on! brand), and maintaining a 10.7% ownership stake in Anheuser-Busch InBev (SABMiller acquisition consideration shares) and a 35% stake in JUUL Labs (vaping — original $12.8B investment written down to minimal value following JUUL's regulatory and litigation difficulties) through approximately 5,500 employees. In fiscal year 2024, Altria reported revenues of approximately $20.6 billion (net revenues after excise taxes approximately $9.7 billion), with the cigarette segment (Marlboro generating 40%+ US cigarette market share) contributing the majority of operating income at 50%+ adjusted operating margins — the highest margins in the consumer staples sector reflecting cigarettes' inelastic demand and regulated market structure. CEO Billy Gifford has pivoted Altria's strategy from cigarettes toward smoke-free nicotine products: the on! oral nicotine pouch (acquired full ownership of Helix Innovations in 2023, rebranding as on! to compete with Swedish Match Zyn, the dominant US oral nicotine pouch brand) represents Altria's primary nicotine product diversification vehicle as cigarette volume declines 7-8% annually through consumer quit rates and secular health awareness trends.
