Aristotle
A human tutor, instantiated in software.
We've known for millennia that 1-on-1 tutoring works better than anything else. Better than flashcards, better than colorful mobile games, better than one-to-many lectures.
But scaling world-class one-on-one tutoring has never been possible—until now. We're building the world's first agentic AI tutor: a human-like personal tutor, built in software.
- Memory across months. Aristotle maintains pedagogical state, remembering what you've learned and where you struggle.
- Real-time adaptation. Explanations adjust as confusion forms—not after you've already given up.
- Resistant to gaming. Built to teach, not to be tricked by clever shortcuts.
