CoLearn operates as an EdTech platform designed to enhance online learning experiences for students, tutors, and tuition centers. The company provides a comprehensive application that facilitates live streaming sessions, connecting students directly with educators, and offers a robust exercise platform for practice and assessment. Its core offering includes cohort-based, online live classes, primarily targeting Indonesian students from Grade 4 through 12, aiming to deliver accessible and effective educational content.
The company was founded in 2019 by Abhay Saboo, Sandeep Devaram, and Marc Irawan. Their initial insight stemmed from identifying a significant need to improve the accessibility and affordability of quality education within Indonesia. This led them to develop a scalable solution that leverages technology to bridge educational gaps and empower both learning institutions and individual students.
CoLearn serves a broad audience, encompassing tuition centers and individual tutors who utilize its tools to deliver structured online instruction, as well as K-12 students seeking supplementary or core academic support. The company's overarching vision is centered on democratizing access to high-quality education, ensuring that more students in Indonesia can engage with effective and affordable learning opportunities to foster their academic development.

CoLearn refers to at least two distinct technology-enabled companies in the education and organizational learning space. The Swedish CoLearn (founded 2018, Stockholm-based) provides services for organizational development, focusing on strategic and cultural growth, leadership, talent development, and modernized learning solutions for private, public, and nonprofit organizations.[1][2] It accelerates change through scalable, science-based processes enhanced by technology, with offerings like Organization Growth, Leader Growth, Trainer Growth, and Talent Growth.[2] The Indonesian CoLearn (launched 2019, South Jakarta-based) is an online education platform offering live streaming tutoring and courses in career-focused subjects like English, Mathematics, and Coding, serving students with $44M total funding including a $17M recent round and 354 employees.[3][4]
Both solve core problems in learning: the Swedish entity addresses enterprise-scale cultural and talent transformation via partnership-driven, agile methods; the Indonesian one tackles accessible skill-building for future careers through digital tutoring.[1][2][3]
The Swedish CoLearn was founded in 2018 in Stockholm, Sweden, emerging to support organizations in change initiatives by integrating science, technology, and learning for sustainable growth—headquartered at Ruddammsbacken.[1][2] Its "Co" ethos emphasizes long-term partnerships, with early work including movements for clients like Riksbyggen (membership evolution), Södra Forest Owners (leadership habits and strategy acceleration), and Folke Bernadotte Academy (modernized pedagogy).[2] No specific founders are named in available data, but it humanizes through client testimonials, like Södra's strategy leader praising its science-based approach.[2]
The Indonesian CoLearn launched its app in January 2019, founded by a team including a Co-founder & Chief Operating Officer and Co-Founder & Chief People Officer, focusing on live streaming to connect students with tutors and an exercise platform.[3][4] It gained traction via funding rounds totaling $44M, reflecting pivotal investor confidence in edtech for career skills in Southeast Asia.[3]
Both CoLearns ride the global edtech and organizational learning surge, amplified by remote work, AI-enhanced personalization, and lifelong learning demands post-pandemic. The Swedish firm aligns with Europe's focus on sustainable, inclusive corporate transformation, leveraging tech for hybrid models amid talent shortages—its timing fits rising ESG and agility needs in public/nonprofit sectors.[1][2] Indonesian CoLearn taps Southeast Asia's digital education boom, where mobile-first platforms address skill gaps in emerging economies; market forces like high youth populations and funding influx ($44M raised) favor its live tutoring model.[3][4]
They influence ecosystems by democratizing learning: Swedish via enterprise partnerships fostering cultural shifts, Indonesian by scaling access to career skills, collectively pushing tech's role in human capital development.
For Swedish CoLearn, expect deeper AI integration in learning analytics and expanded EU partnerships, shaped by hybrid work trends and sustainability mandates—potentially amplifying its movement-building influence. Indonesian CoLearn eyes regional dominance with funding firepower, riding SEA edtech growth via coding/AI courses, though competition may test retention.
As tech redefines learning from classrooms to cultures, CoLearns exemplify scalable empowerment—bridging individual skills to organizational futures.
