Boundless, a startup out of Boston, is aiming to offer an open alternative to the college textbook. But major publishers like Pearson Education, Cengage Learning, and Bedford, Freeman & Worth Publishing Group aren't so thrilled with the thousands of beta testers across 2,000 universities in the U.S. enjoying Boundless's free and open alternatives. Students using the beta product rated the Boundless? platform 50 percent higher than physical textbooks, and the average grade for users was a B+, with 80 percent saying they received grades they wanted or higher.
