Problem & Solution

1-on-1 AI tutoring at $9/mo vs $80/hr human tutors

The Problem

1-on-1 tutoring is the highest-leverage intervention in K-12 outcomes (Bloom's 2-sigma) but costs $40–$150/hr — accessible only to top deciles. 95% of learners get only group classroom instruction. The gap drives generational inequality and underperforming national STEM cohorts.

Our Solution

An AI tutor platform delivering Socratic, curriculum-aligned 1-on-1 STEM tutoring for K-12. Adaptive pacing, voice-first interface, parent progress dashboards, and offline-capable on low-end Android devices. $9/mo per student — 1/100th of human tutor cost.

Traction & Proof Points

Moat & Exit Strategy

Defensible Moat

Curriculum-locked content library mapped to 28 national K-12 standards is 12–18 months of work to replicate. Parent-trust brand in education compounds via word-of-mouth — CAC drops ~40% in markets after Y2. Voice-first UX optimized for low-end devices unlocks emerging-market reach competitors ignore.

Exit Path

Strategic acquisition by a global education publisher (Pearson, McGraw-Hill), super-app expanding to learning, or IPO on a US/Indian exchange within 6–8 years.
