Ed.ai has raised 1.7 million euros to enhance personalized education for students through AI-driven solutions that support teachers in addressing individual learning gaps.

Target Information

Ed.ai, a young EdTech startup founded in September 2024, specializes in applying artificial intelligence in education. The company was established by three experienced entrepreneurs: Jonathan Banon (CEO, former founder of Le Livre Scolaire), Cédric Bignon (CTO, ex-Microsoft), and Rémi Mazières (Chief Learning Officer, ex-Le Choix de l'École). Their innovative solution automates the correction of student submissions and identifies individual learning gaps, allowing for personalized remediation pathways.

Currently, Ed.ai's technology is being tested across 40 institutions in the Lyon Academy, reaching an audience of approximately 4,000 students. This approach aims to provide teachers with additional time to support their classes without imposing extra screen time on underage students or requiring them to change established working methods.
