Applying cutting-edge tech to an iconic brand
Sesame Workshop currently engages with children in more than 150 countries globally. To enhance their outreach to more children, parents, and educators in rural regions, Sesame approached Modus to develop a new international technology framework for web and mobile apps. The objective was to provide award-winning children's content and a structured curriculum on a single, user-friendly platform optimized for areas with limited internet bandwidth. Our approach began with a robust technological foundation, which allowed us to improve the user experience for three audiences—children, caregivers, and educators—by designing, developing, and launching easy-to-use web, responsive mobile, and native applications for iOS and Android. This resulted in a single, adaptable framework that can be deployed in any language and country while supporting fully localized content. By utilizing Amazon’s latest solutions, we can quickly set up instances in any region worldwide. The centralized deployment and management system enables Modus and Sesame’s DevOps teams to collaborate effectively, ensuring high-availability sites with minimal maintenance. Additionally, it empowers content creators and producers to implement updates and changes in real-time across all platforms, 24/7, throughout the year.
