Gizmo raises 22 million dollars in Series A to turn screen addiction into learning power for 13 million students

Gizmo

Gizmo has raised 22 million dollars in a Series A funding round to make learning addictive for its massive user base. The London based startup wants to redirect the pull of phone screens toward productive study habits.

The funding round and growth momentum 🤖

Shine Capital led the round with participation from Ada Ventures Seek Investments GSV and NFX. Gizmo already serves 13 million learners across 120 countries as detailed in TechCrunch coverage.

Students upload notes documents or links and the AI creates customized flashcards quizzes and challenges. Social features let friends compete on leaderboards.

How Gizmo makes studying stick 💰

Founders Petros Christodoulou Robin Jack and Paul Evangelou built the platform based on their University of Cambridge experience. The app turns passive content into active learning to boost engagement. Similar tools are highlighted in top AI learning tools directories.

Users can explore Gizmo further on Gizmo AI page at BestAITools.com or compare options in best AI tools for students.

More details on the deal appear in FinSMEs report and Axios exclusive.

The money will grow the engineering and AI teams and push into the US college market.
