Thinkster Math Accelerates Market Leadership in AI-Driven Hyper-personalized Delivery of Learning, Benefiting Students, Parents and Tutors
Kendall Park, NJ (April 23, 2020): Thinkster, the leading personalized tutoring company announced today that it has acquired SelectQ Corporation, an AI-driven educational technology startup. With the acquisition, Thinkster will transform from a tutoring company to a hyper-personalized knowledge acceleration platform company that caters to any educational content. The hyper-personalization serves three different user groups – students, tutors and parents.
With the acquisition of SelectQ, Thinkster will leverage the corporation’s intensive use of Artificial Intelligence as a Service (AIaaS) to deliver hyper-personalized educational content using performance metrics as well as content monetization for tutors. The platform delivers real-time data-driven learning experiences and digital benefits for students, tutors and parents.
In addition to Math, Thinkster will be adding content across grade levels, including Honors and AP Level STEM subjects, and competitive test preparations such as SAT and ACT courses. It will also expand its services to additional English-speaking regions such as the UK, India, Australia, and growth countries like Brazil. The core hyper-personalized platform provides the following offerings to its users: tailored trainings, tutor empowerment and additional parent insight.
“With this acquisition, the potential of SelectQ’s robust and scalable AI & NLG platform can be fully realized to improve the education offered today and broaden its use for the benefit of students worldwide,” said Ramesh Panuganty, founder of SelectQ. “We started the company with the aim to deliver hyper-personalized learning and make it accessible across the wide spectrum of education”. Ramesh will be joining the Board of Directors of Thinkster.
Through a more tailored approach, students will get customized training and quizzes on any subject that challenge and improve their learning levels. The technology curates personalized questions, answer explanations and learning plans according to each student’s capability. It analyzes their way of answering, identifies their strengths and weaknesses and creates personalized improvement plans. It helps improve performance with personalization, instead of using canned user content adopted by the traditional tutoring methods.
