It uses AI and machine learning technologies to transform static materials into dynamic, interactive content that integrates assessments and real-time reports for teachers while preserving the essence of the original publications.
- Kiddie Kredit (Miami, Florida), whose mobile app is designed to educate children about the credit system and credit responsibility through chore completion, fostering financial literacy from an early age. The company is already in partnerships with Equifax & several other financial institutions.
- Lingco (Lansing, Michigan), which offers an adaptive language learning platform for K-12 and higher ed. It assesses students’ language competencies and provides actionable insights and engaging content to instructors for better course structuring and helping students achieve proficiency.
- UpBrainery (The Woodlands, Texas), which provides Exploration Pathways for an immersive career exploration experience for students in K-12.

These selected startups will embark on a 12-week journey through LearnLaunch Accelerator’s Breakthrough to Scale program, primarily conducted virtually.
