IBL News | New York

SchoolAI raised $25 million in Series A funding in a round led by Insight Partners. Existing investors include NextView Ventures, The General Partnership, and Peterson Ventures. SchoolAI’s total funding is $32 million to date.

SchoolAI’s Classroom Experience platform combines AI assistants for teachers that help with classroom preparation and administrative work. At the same time, SchoolAI’s Spaces uses personalized AI tutors, games, and lessons that can adapt to each student’s unique learning style and interests.

These tools give teachers actionable insights into student performance and allow them to deliver targeted support when it matters most.

According to the company, SchoolAI is used in over a million classrooms across all 50 U.S. States and over 80 countries worldwide. The platform is embedded in more than 400 school districts through strategic partnerships that train teachers and students on how to use AI safely and in a managed way.

Launched for classrooms in August of 2023, SchoolAI noted how teachers, instructional coaches, and school leaders are using their tools:

  • “Personalized Learning Companions: Teacher-designed AI ‘Spaces’ that adapt to each student’s interests, learning pace, and style. These 1:1 AI tutors can provide immediate support, dramatically increasing student engagement and learning.
  • Simple Teacher Workflows: Easy-to-use AI assistants that help teachers prepare for class: lesson planning, targeted assessments, personalized feedback, and other administrative tasks–freeing teachers to focus on meaningful student connection while staying aligned to district and state standards.
  • Deep Accessibility and Support Features: SchoolAI supports more than 99 languages for supporting multilingual students, has real-time text-to-speech and speech-to-text for younger students, custom instructions for targeted student accommodations, and additional accessibility features for easy reading and writing.
  • Data-Driven Support Systems: Real-time dashboards can surface actionable data and insights, revealing which students need academic or other support, help students stay on track, flag concerns, and raise opportunities to improve future lessons.
  • Seamless Integration With Existing Tools: SchoolAI integrates directly with established platforms like Canvas, PowerSchool, and Google Classroom, so teachers can use AI with the tools they and their students are already using.
  • Enterprise-Grade Security & School-Ready Safety: A safe, managed, and secure learning environment fully compliant with FERPA and COPPA regulations, with SOC 2 certification providing the highest standards of data protection for students and schools.”
