From the founder
"Ed and I are prime examples of how every brain learns differently. At school, I was a round peg trying to fit into a square shaped system. It was a disaster and I left without qualifications. Too many people think they aren’t smart, when actually they don’t have access to the right style of learning for them. In the AI era, that’s a super vulnerable place for people to be. That’s what Mindmax is going to change. It will completely transform how people retain information, build skills, and future proof their livelihoods,"

Daniel Zohar
Co-founder at Mindmax
Investor perspective
"Ed and Daniel built something remarkable with Memrise, helping tens of millions of people learn languages. The potential of what they can build is now far greater. The early traction they’ve seen is testament to this — they have an ability to design and deploy products that deliver learning experiences far superior to anything else on the market,"
