Today, we're excited to announce our $9.4M Series A, led by Felicis and Inspired, and with participation from Susa and 8VC! Our mission is to radically improve the process of K-12 education, beginning with secondary math. So far, the results have been phenomenal -- with 100% of districts improving outcomes on their end-of-course exams by +5-12% within one year. Thank you to our many great districts, leaders, teachers, and staff partners who work hard to make an impact!
Thrilled to be leading Felicis’ investment in Edia and partnering with Joe Philleo and Iain Proctor to bring the power of this new AI paradigm to education. While K-12 spend in the US has surpassed $800 billion per year, technological penetration, impact, and investment have far lagged other sectors. Edia is changing what has continually been overpromised but underdelivered: personalized education. Starting with math, their traction and glowing feedback from large school districts in combination with their demonstrated results of improving student outcomes – which they guarantee as part of their contracts – is a testament to what they’ve built and how thoughtful they have been about building their platform. I couldn’t imagine a better team to tackle this incredibly large and critical problem, combining their passion for education with their technical and product expertise from companies like Facebook, Uber and Citizen.
