Based in Noida, India, ByteLearn develops an artificial intelligence-powered teaching assistant that provides step-by-step math tutoring and personalized practice for K-12 students and educators. The freemium software as a service platform builds comprehensive knowledge graphs to identify specific student skill gaps across subjects like middle school mathematics, algebra, pre-calculus, and calculus. By automating performance evaluations and enabling teachers to generate customized tests, the system reduces administrative workloads by up to 40 percent. Operating with an estimated 32 to 75 employees, the company has deployed its educational technology across more than 200 schools globally, targeting a future user base of up to 100 million monthly active users. ByteLearn secured $9.5 million in seed funding during a December 2021 investment round led by 9Unicorns, Chiratae Ventures, and Leo Capital. The enterprise was founded in 2021 by Aditya Singhal and Nishant Sinha.

ByteLearn is an edtech company building an AI-powered math teaching assistant that delivers personalized, step-by-step guidance to students and teachers, primarily targeting middle school math (grades 6-8).[1][2][4] It serves educators and students worldwide—reaching over 100 million teachers and 1.5 billion students—by solving knowledge gaps through adaptive learning, where users snap a photo of a math problem for instant, non-judgmental support that celebrates mistakes and boosts motivation.[1][4] With strong growth momentum, ByteLearn hit early adoption in 2022 for full-grade curricula, aimed for 10 million active users in 2023, and targeted 100 million monthly active users by 2024, backed by $9.5 million in seed funding.[1][5]
Founded in 2021, ByteLearn emerged from the vision of IIT Delhi alumni Aditya Singhal and Nishant Sinha, serial edtech entrepreneurs with 15 years of experience each in product, growth, and customer acquisition.[1] Before ByteLearn, they co-founded Instasolv (acquired by Vedantu), impacting 25 million students across 120 countries, which honed their expertise in scalable edtech solutions.[1] The idea crystallized around AI's potential to democratize 1-on-1 math tutoring, launching from stealth in 2023 with $9.5 million in seed funding from investors like Kettleborough VC, 9Unicorns, and others; early traction included rapid global adoption via a photo-based solver and chatbot named "Byte."[1][5][6]
ByteLearn rides the AI-edtech boom, capitalizing on post-pandemic demand for personalized learning amid teacher shortages and widening achievement gaps in STEM, especially math where U.S. middle school classrooms struggle with differentiation.[1][4][5] Timing aligns with generative AI advancements (e.g., NLP for step-by-step guidance), fueling a market projected to explode as adaptive platforms scale globally—ByteLearn's photo-to-solution tech lowers barriers in underserved regions like India and beyond.[1][2][6] It influences the ecosystem by normalizing AI tutors, pressuring incumbents to innovate while amplifying access for billions, potentially reshaping K-12 outcomes through data-driven insights.
ByteLearn's trajectory points to explosive user growth toward 100 million MAUs, expanding beyond grades 6-8 into full K-12 curricula and new subjects, powered by deeper AI integration and global app launches.[1][6] Trends like multimodal AI (photo + chat) and edtech consolidation will propel it, especially with founder expertise positioning for acquisitions or Series A. Its influence could evolve from niche math tutor to comprehensive AI learning companion, redefining equitable education—echoing its core promise of turning every student into a confident problem-solver.[1][4]
