Education technology is changing the way we learn at a rapid pace, and Quench.ai is no exception. The London-based personal AI learning coach recently secured $5 million in a pre-seed round, led by Firstminute Capital and Tuesday VC (formerly CrunchFund), with participation from BY Venture Partners, Plug and Play Ventures, Notion Capital, IFG, Antler, Ventures Together, Northzone Scout, and over fifty individual founders.
With this new funding, Quench.ai is revolutionizing the learning and development industry worth $1 trillion. The platform provides educational videos, AI-enhanced learning experiences, and one-on-one sessions with experts, enabling students to gain skills faster.
Quench.ai CEO and Founder Husayn Kassai explains: “Building my first startup straight out of university and scaling it to a team of over 500, I knew we had to become an effective learning organization. Yet I needed help finding a simple way to equip our teams with the learning opportunities they needed to continuously grow their skills, learn more, and move faster.”
The firm is expanding their current team of sixteen to support product and tech development, as well as customer sales and support. Quench.ai has already gained positive feedback from users, including Maryam Torshizi, founder and CEO at DeepSearch Labs, who describes Quench as an AI librarian that guides users to the correct information with precision and ease.
Firstminute Capital Executive Chairman Brent Hoberman comments: “We’re proud to back Quench.ai and see the launch of its AI learning coach, which has the potential to revolutionize personalized learning and development. By leveraging AI’s power and scalability, Quench.ai offers targeted content at people’s fingertips, transforming how we learn. With such an experienced team and impressive early product-market fit, Quench.ai is poised to address companies’ evolving talent development and up-skilling needs today.”
Quench.ai is bringing a much-needed innovation to the education sector. With its AI-powered platform, teachers can easily access the most relevant content, helping their students learn faster and improve their skills. Quench is truly revolutionizing how we learn, and we can’t wait to see what’s next.
