Vertical

AI for edtech

Adjacent — production plus creative direction is the natural fit

Edtech is an adjacent vertical for us, and a deliberate one. The best edtech is structurally similar to the best consumer games: daily engagement loops, habit formation, content that has to earn its place on a phone alongside TikTok and Instagram. The product discipline transfers; the editorial bar does too.

We work with edtech firms on personalised learning systems, engagement design, AI tutors and content pipelines. The common failure mode we see is AI content that's technically fluent but editorially flat — generic, slightly uncanny, and guaranteed to drive up unsubscribe rates within the first fortnight. We fix that by treating prompt design, agent tone and editorial review as first-class capabilities, not afterthoughts.

Where we help

Four workstreams we see repeatedly

Personalised learning

Curriculum adaptation, difficulty calibration, and cohort-based progression modelling.

AI tutoring

Conversational tutors with editorial review loops and clear escalation criteria — not black-box chatbots pointed at curriculum data.

Content generation

Lesson content, problem sets, explanations. Editorial standards on voice, accuracy and pedagogy.

Engagement design

Streaks, sessions, notification cadence — applying consumer habit-formation discipline to learning products.

Fit

When our team is the right call

  • Consumer edtech with paid engagement, not just traffic
  • B2B edtech selling into schools or enterprises with accountability requirements
  • Learning platforms with proprietary content they're considering generating against
  • Teams who've read the research on AI tutoring and want a deployment that clears that bar

If your profile doesn't match any of these, we'd rather tell you on the first call. We'll point you to someone better suited — and mean it.
