SaigolEd

Executive Summary:

SaigolEd is an impact EdTech platform that will transform a $200BN fragmented global tutoring/supply teaching market that is currently dramatically overpriced and ripe for change. We have built an A+ team (Cambridge, Harvard, Google, Microsoft), a deep network of thousands of cost-effective high-quality tutors, have drawn down $650k from private equity investors and have leading VCs lined up for the next round at a large valuation increase.

Vision:

SaigolEd aims to be the primary tutoring resource for all taught learning, regardless of geography and age across all subjects, hobbies and interests. 

What do we do?:

Our impact EdTech platform (Kassoom) will transform the $200BN tutoring industry so millions of Western kids as well as schools can finally access exceptional tutors from lower-income (LMIC) countries. We are uniquely differentiated by providing greater expertise and curriculum-training than most Western tutors and dramatically reducing prices 80% below competitors (such as GoStudent in Europe at $3BN valuation). This platform has vast potential pushing through low-cost borders across all taught learning: wide-ranging ages, subjects and countries. Our year 5 projections show a $300M valuation, >$100M of revenues and >$20M EBITDA (with further growth thereafter). 

Investment Highlights:

• Launch is imminent and funded. Raising contingency monies (staff and Sales)
• Built pipeline of >1000 excellent tutors at correct cost to us to hit year 5 targets and beyond
• A+ team expertise incl Cambridge/Harvard/Goldman Sachs
• $1BN successfully invested in property deals and award-winning commercialization of new tech products at Google and Microsoft
• Successfully raised $650k to date incl. anchor investments for this round
• Leading US VCs lined up for the next round: only need 1000 users post-launch in coming months for Series A $ valuation levels
• Rigorous user and competitor research carried out (hundreds of users/thousands of data points over 8 months)
