We're building the world's first neuro-adaptive learning engine—technology that understands how each brain learns and delivers education that actually works.
40% of students in Sub-Saharan Africa drop out before completing secondary school. Not because they're not smart enough—but because the system wasn't built for how they learn.
Our education systems still run on a 120-year-old factory model: one teacher, one syllabus, one pace. It was designed for industrial efficiency, not human potential.
Astraea exists to change that. We're building AI that doesn't just deliver content—it understands how each brain learns and rebuilds every lesson to match.

Potential per learner
We believe every learner has unique potential. Our technology exists to unlock it, not to standardize it.
We're not adapting Western solutions. We're building from the ground up for African realities—connectivity, context, and culture.
Technology should amplify teachers, not replace them. We build tools that make educators more effective.
Student data is sacred. We collect only what's needed, protect it fiercely, and never sell it.
Every feature is grounded in cognitive science and learning research. We measure what matters.
If it doesn't work offline, on basic phones, in low-bandwidth areas—it doesn't work for Africa.
Monday night, a hackathon, and an idea
Astraea was born on a Monday night during a university tech and innovation hackathon. Three students—Leatile King Baaitse, Tiro College, and Owen Nogeng—came together with a shared frustration: why does education still fail so many students when we have the technology to do better?
The answer wasn't more content or better teachers—it was personalization. Every brain learns differently, yet our education systems treat everyone the same. That night, the vision for Astraea was born: an AI-powered platform that adapts to how each individual learns.
We're just getting started, but we believe this is the future of education—not one-size-fits-all, but one-size-fits-one.
