EdTech Helps Students Learn Better with AI-Powered Platform
Artificial intelligence (AI) is transforming the way students learn and practice in the classroom. Singapore-based educational technology company Cerebry is leading the way, having recently raised $1 million in a seed round led by Vietnam-based venture capital firm Ascend Vietnam Ventures (AVV). Pentathlon Ventures and strategic investors also participated in the funding round.
Cerebry was co-founded by Shubham Goyal, Rahul Singhal and Rohit Singhal. The platform uses AI to replace static educational content with dynamically auto-generating adaptive exercises for students. This helps to make personalized tuition accessible to everyone, regardless of geography or family income.
The AI engine helps students to learn and practice with problem sets tailored to their individual learning needs. This includes step-by-step problem breakdowns, problem-solving, and further practice with instant personalized assistance like hints and feedback. As a result, students have seen a significant improvement in engagement and learning outcomes.
The company has seen ten times revenue growth in 2022 and near-perfect retention across different customer segments. Clients range from governments in Southeast Asia (SEA) and Middle East and North Africa (MENA), publishers like Marshall Cavendish, and several EdTech companies in India like IMS Learning and Jamboree.
With the new funding, Cerebry plans to expand its AI-powered practice platform to offer adaptive learning to millions of K-12 students in Asia Pacific (APAC). The company also aims to develop its product further by expanding to new domains like science and broaden its customer base, including new geographies such as Vietnam and Japan.
Eddie Thai, General Partner of Ascend Vietnam Ventures, commented on the investment: “AVV is thrilled to partner with Cerebry as the company continues to scale its AI-driven EdTech platform. We believe in their mission to make quality education truly adaptive and accessible to all, and we look forward to seeing Cerebry drive positive change in the education landscape.”
Cerebry’s AI-powered platform is helping teachers to better engage students in the classroom and improve learning outcomes. AI is revolutionizing the way students learn and practice, and Cerebry’s platform is a great example of how EdTech can be used to make personalized tuition accessible to everyone.
