Your Child's Personal AI Tutor
AI-Powered CBC Tutoring for Every Kenyan Child
The education gap is real, growing, and solvable.
18M+ primary school children in Kenya — the largest young population in East Africa.
Average class size: 45–60 students. Teachers cannot personalize learning. (UNESCO)
Only 1 in 10 families can afford private tutoring at KES 5,000–15,000/month.
The CBC curriculum transition has created widespread confusion for parents and students alike.
Rural areas face severe teacher shortages — some schools have 1 teacher for 100+ students.
Result: Millions of children fall behind without personalized academic support.
Personalized, affordable, always available.
Personal tutor available 24/7. Adapts to each child's pace and level in real time.
Complete curriculum coverage for Grades 4–6, expanding to 1–8. English & Kiswahili.
