EduCreate

Empowering the content creator within every teacher and igniting the imagination of every student

Problem & Motivation

Teachers face a daunting challenge every day.

They are expected to craft lessons that resonate with every student, yet have limited time to plan those lessons. They are asked to ensure all students learn something, yet have to juggle a diverse range of learning styles and skill levels.

Relying on a one-size-fits-all approach doesn’t work. How can they possibly facilitate an environment of learning for every student?

Our Solution

We are building EduCreate to help teachers address this challenge. EduCreate is a GenAI-assistive resource that transforms text-based history content into comic strips and creative summaries. This approach saves teachers time and money on lesson planning, and empowers students to engage with history course material as action-packed, life-like stories. EduCreate offers a novel data pipeline that features several different types of GenAI models (e.g., RAG, LLM, and Text2Image). It gives teachers a low-barrier and cost-free opportunity to drive content creation for their classrooms and students. It also taps into the fastest-growing segment of the $400B+ edtech market – a segment focused on interactive, personalized learning solutions – and seeks to serve the expanding population of high school teachers across the world (which was >1 million in the U.S. alone in 2022).
