AI + Learning Catalyst
Rapid advancements in artificial intelligence will transform how we teach, learn and grow. This is an unprecedented time to shape how AI will augment — never replace — human intelligence and humanity.
Reach is excited to continue its history of backing transformative AI edtech startups. We welcome big ideas and bold execution, grounded in research and impact. If you’re in the early stages of applying AI to tackle big problems in education, this is for you.
Early-stage (pre-seed) ideas that apply AI to solve big challenges in education. Approaches that leverage pedagogical best practices and educational research is a plus.
Pre-product or MVP stage. This is a pre-seed investment with potential for follow-on.
Up to $100K.
We work closely alongside founders and connect them to education, research and technical expertise to help them find market validation and scale. We host events with leading industry leaders (like OpenAI) and other funders who share our mission to improve education.
We’d love to chat! We continue to participate or lead Seed to Series B deals for AI edtech companies from our core fund. Submit your pitch here.
