Our take

Peak is a brain training game whose products are designed in collaboration with experts in neuroscience, cognitive science, and education.

The company is aiming to map the world’s cognitive performance, providing individuals with a way to test, track and train their cognitive functions.

There's quite a lot of competition in this space, e.g. companies like Lumosity. The key will be making a product that's sticky enough such that users don't churn too quickly.

They company has done well enough to be acquired by Popreach and now sits in a portfolio of companies that are supported by the economies of scale and operational expertise Popreach has to offer.
