Ce que fait Excellence Learning

Excellence an after-school maths and science program. We replace/supplement private tutoring and long-term study programs such as Kumon (over 30B TAM). US Parents are our primary customers. Our web and iPad software serves both ambitious and struggling students. As we believe each student is unique, we adapt our high quality courses and exercises to their knowledge and learning style in a very granular way. To facilitate learning, they get detailed text, voice and graphical explanations, can craft study plans, revise and memorize, and received human mentorship if needed. We believe LLMs have made edtech interesting, as technology now allows us to replicate a tutoring learning experience. In addition, we offer a program with daily courses and exercises, detailed feedback on their worksheets and more (super Kumon). Finally we sell the AI tutoring and exercise databases to schools in a B2B and B2B2C model and already work for the most prestigious institutions in France (Ecole polytechnique, college Stanislas...). We're a passionate team of ex-quants, mathematicians and physics champions devoted to improving science education.

What is your company going to make? Please describe your product and what it does or will do.

We build an AI-powered after-school tutoring platform focused on math and science. Our product adapts courses and exercises granularly to each student's level and learning style. It offers detailed explanations - text, voice, graphics - as well as study plans, revision tools, and human mentorship on demand. We also provide an advanced daily coursework program that goes beyond traditional long-term formats like Kumon. Additionally, we license our AI tutoring and exercise content to schools in a B2B and B2B2C model.

Where do you live now, and where would the company be based after YC?

We live and work in Stanford, CA, and will keep the company based here after YC.

Explain your decision regarding location.

Being in Stanford puts us near top technical talent and a strong education ecosystem. It's also where all founders currently live and where we've built early relationships with customers and institutional partners, especially in France.
