The Future of Learning is Here
We partner with local primary and secondary schools to make learning more personal, engaging, and effective — for every student and every classroom.
Our Story
The Spark
Sayo AI was founded in [Year] by [Founder(s) Name(s)] — [a high school teacher and a software engineer] who became frustrated with [the lack of engaging digital tools for STEM education / the difficulty for students in rural areas to access quality tutoring].
The Journey
We started by [partnering with a local school to test our idea], building simple prototypes hand-in-hand with teachers and students. From day one, our goal has been clear: create tools that are effective, easy to use, and genuinely improve learning — not add to the workload.
