Our take

Digital education has become an increasing reality in recent years. Whilst services such as Zoom have provided platforms for remote teaching, the minimal functionality of such services has outlined the lack of digital engagement tools that classrooms require.

Kiddom develops a collaborative learning platform for K-12 schooling that aims to provide integrated solutions to not only remote teaching but also in-person school and homework assignments. The platform allows teachers to assign tasks and to collaborate with students on them, whilst the software gathers data to provide insights on student engagement and performance.

The startup currently provides its services to individual teachers for free, but solutions for inter-institutional curriculums come at an annual subscription fee. Kiddom’s approach aims to provide solutions and fill the gap between remote and in-school teaching, at the same time as integrating student analytics to optimize and personalize the way students are educated.
