  • 1

    Ambition

    While this term often has a negative connotation, we believe that mainstream education has been too slow-moving for too long. We want people that think outside the box and are not afraid to go against the status quo.

    Automation

    Our product is meant to be lightweight, easy, and powerful. We believe automation is essential to ensuring that educators can build dynamic review assignments with ease and that students can focus on understanding their material.

    Accessibility

    Education is a pillar of our society, and we stand firm in our belief that socioeconomic status, geographic location, and individual disabilities should never impact the quality of education one is able to receive.
