Company mission
To accelerate the progress of humanity by removing barriers to learning.
Our take
Mindstone is a learning platform that helps people turn their "everyday learning" into skills that can advance their career. The idea of the platform is to help people combat information overload, and instead ensure they absorb key, bite sized insights every day. This learning streak can then be shown to future employers, demonstrating passion and expertise in particular areas.
The platform delivers this vision by allowing users to save content such as podcasts, articles, and videos, as well as set learning goals that help to build good habits. Their "Mindstone Skill Profile" then allows them to visualize their progress as well as share it with future and prospective employers. On top of this service for individuals, businesses can leverage Mindstone to build the skills they need within their existing workforces.
Having attracted funding back in 2021, the company has been working to build out its offerings and reach a broader audience. It also launched "AI Mastery for Teams", a business product specifically designed to support AI upskilling in the workplace, showcasing that it is capable of keeping up with its clients evolving education needs.
