Indian online education platform KinderPass announced recently that it has raised $500,000 in pre-Seed funding from Goodwater Capital, Momentum Capital, Better Capital, SuperMorpheus and Rebalance Angel Community.
According to the company, the fresh capital will be used to launch video-based multilingual detection modules, build a proprietary parent education platform, expand its clinician network, and partner with kindergartens and schools to reach more families.
Founded in 2020, KinderPass empowers families through a personalized program providing interactive one-on-one courses to teach kids and parents techniques which are necessary in real life situations. At the meanwhile, the platform enable families to arrange their weekly practice activities, games and worksheets to reach goals faster.
“Developmental screening and early intervention is not the norm and most developmental delays go undetected or unaddressed during early years and surface as learning difficulties or behavior problems at school. We want to change this,” said Sumedha Khoche and Shireen Sultana, co-founders, KinderPass, in a joint statement.
Currently, the startup claims 1.2M downloads and has enabled thousands of assessments and live sessions in 10 different languages, with a network of more than 50 child experts who have helped families across over 75 cities across India.
