Twitter co-founder Biz Stone backed the pre-seed round alongside Tiny VC and IFG Ventures.

"Everybody has something they want to learn, and something they can teach. We’re bringing them together. Educators are superstars, and they bring so much value to the lives of students. But the best tutors are not always known. We’re building a world where an Arabic expert living in Egypt can create classes or share answers with students from around the world. The content that our tutors create on Scoodle lives on. This continues to benefit other students, long after the classes have ended. Tutors are content creators. They are constantly making amazing resources for students. They deserve to be recognised. Linkedin has created a professional identity. Facebook has created a social identity. Scoodle will create a teaching identity. One day, we’ll really make the Kim Kardashian’s of education."

The pre-seed round was led by Collab+Sesame with participation from Techstars London.

"I was a huge fan of Sesame Street as a child, and couldn't imagine a more perfect lead investor than Collab+Sesame, who share our values of kindness, communication, learning through play, and humour. We're looking forward to working closely with Sesame Workshop to help us develop Banjo Robinson into an even more valuable experience for children and families."

Gumi Cryptos Capital led the pre-seed round, which included participation from Xpring, LuneX and Blockchain Valley Ventures.

"Due to their complexity, passwords have become the weakest means of authentication. Not only are billions compromised in breaches every year – hackers are also figuring out how to bypass two-factor authentication systems that rely in-part on something the user knows- like passwords and recovery phrases,"

GC Angels backed the pre-seed round to support the launch of the digital platform and fund content expansion.

"GC Angels have been great to work with; at the stage we were at they were crucial. We’re looking to grow both the content and userbase, helping as many players as possible which the investment is enabling us to do. Years of hard work collecting masses of content and building an appropriate site to host it can now come to fruition with the GC Angels funding the dissemination process."
