Proactive intervention
Detects when a student is stuck or stalled, and starts the conversation first.
Until now, agents have done people’s work for them. The work got done, but the people stayed the same. We go the other way. We get people to do it themselves, and we make them more capable for it.
Who we are
Not an agent that does the work.
An agent that grows the person.
Same AI agents. A different thing they change.

People have always been the most powerful augmentation.
But because they are people, every problem follows.
The gap
Add people and it gets expensive.
Remove them and the intervention disappears.
One-on-one is expensive, bound to a tutor’s schedule, and only as good as whoever teaches. Video lessons and chatbots cut the cost, but they only work when the student shows up first. Half a solution.

Product
Eden
Eden, the tutoring agent.
It reaches out before the student asks.
It notices the moment they get stuck, and gets them moving again.
Live in SuperfastSAT
Three moments Eden speaks first.
Eden reads intervention signals in how a student works, and opens the conversation at the right time.

Capabilities
Two student capabilities.
Seven things Eden does for them.
The subject is always the student. Eden doesn’t do the student’s work. It builds what the student can do.
So students start, and don’t stop
06Coming
Student memory
Remembers past work and conversations, and carries them into the next intervention.
07Coming
Retention
Catches early signs of drop-off and brings the student back to learning.
In production
4.5 months live.
217 students. 1.7 conversations a day.
Since launching in SuperfastSAT in April 2026, three of the seven capabilities are running in real classes.

Technology
It learns when and how
to intervene.
Just-in-time adaptive intervention (JITAI) is a field Harvard established in mobile health. We built it for learning, as an LLM agent.5
A harness with the student at the center.
Propose. The student moves. Measure the change. Every turn of the loop sharpens the policy.

Product roadmap
We take people out
at the pace parents accept.
Parents won’t accept people disappearing from lessons overnight. So we start with coaches. As the agent takes on more domains, from three to seven, the human share and the cost both shrink.
Now
Coach + Eden
Coaches and Eden teach together. Students per coach are already rising.
Next
Agent expansion
Eden grows to all seven domains, reducing the human share and the cost.
Goal
Agent alone
Tutoring that moves students, without a human tutor.
Domains handled by the agent

Traction
Renewals now outpace new sales.
Since July–August 2026, renewal revenue has exceeded new revenue. Students and parents are choosing us again.

An intervention policy beyond learning.It starts with the SAT.
Getting people to move is the same problem outside learning. We started where the policy can learn the fastest.
