LearnWise AI has raised €2 million in seed funding, led by Emerge, Europe’s leading edtech-focused venture fund. This funding marks a significant milestone, enabling the company to expand global operations, accelerate product development, and scale the team to meet growing demand from universities worldwide. With institutions struggling to deliver exceptional student support amidst limited budgets, the AI-powered platform addresses critical challenges by reducing support queries, enhancing efficiency, and improving student experiences.

LearnWise AI has made significant progress, including:

By identifying gaps, analyzing trends, and ensuring timely assistance, the platform redefines the way universities support their students, providing accessible help across languages, platforms, and time zones.

The platform stands out with its seamless integration into major learning management systems like Canvas LMS, Brightspace, Moodle, Blackboard, and ReadyEducation. It utilizes AI-driven knowledge management to address content gaps, delivers real-time analytics for actionable insights, and offers 24/7 multilingual support. With rapid deployment capabilities requiring less than 30 minutes to implement, the solution aligns with the digital transformation needs of educational institutions while scaling effortlessly across departments.
