Big news: paddy, the AI platform for schools, just raised 1M€ from HTGF | High-Tech Gründerfonds and a group of angels, including me! 🚀 The founders did not start with code. They started in classrooms. Years of consulting with schools gave them a deep understanding of education’s real pain points. Now, with fresh funding, they are turning that knowledge into a powerful SaaS for teachers. Education used to be a VC sink, with few breakout successes. But AI is changing the playing field! Nowhere is adoption faster and impact greater than in education. While we built ChatPDF for higher education research, Paddy is taking on K-12 where small changes can impact millions of students. One platform for lesson planning, material creation, and student insights. This ends the daily tool chaos teachers face. As the child of two teachers, I know just how big this is. Years of groundwork are now ready to scale. Let’s go Matty Frommann, Tobias Schröder, Lukas Portmann & Lukas Kaufmann! 💪
