Our Story

Our story started in 2020 with a question:ÌýWhat is the best way to create effective and engaging learning experiences for all students?Ìý

Teachers across the nation are constantly tackling escalating workloads and class sizes. We believe that an expanded vision of AI as social, collaborative partners in classrooms can augment teacher pedagogies and help them to focus on what they do best—creating rich learning experiences that inspire students.

We strongly believe that sustained collaboration with students and teachers from all backgrounds is the only way to turn such a vision into reality. We work with school districts to build our AI systems on child speech patterns, facial expressions, eye movements, and gestures from real-world classrooms.
