CENTURY Tech builds an AI-powered learning platform that personalises learning pathways for each student while providing teachers with data insights and saving time on marking and planning. The company says its technology incorporates pedagogy and curriculum content and is used by schools such as Eton and Dulwich College, as well as large groups like Cognita and The City School group. Usage of the platform increased by more than 400% in the last year, and the company reports 100% year-on-year growth since launching in 2017. CENTURY plans to scale its platform to more schools globally and expand its backend AI technologies to publishers and other content owners. It has also launched a personalisation-via-API solution used by BPP University and global publishing companies. The company was named a World Economic Forum Technology Pioneer, raising its profile with global leaders and partners. CENTURY Tech builds an AI, neuroscience and learning‑science powered teaching and learning platform that adapts dynamically to individual students across schools, colleges, universities and homeschooling. The platform tailors learning content, delivery and assessment to students' strengths, weaknesses and learning behaviours while giving teachers resources, tools and assessment data. All content is developed in‑house by teachers, neuroscientists, educational psychologists and technology experts, and the product includes notes, tips and nudges to encourage independent study. The company has so far raised $9.5 million (£7.5 million) in seed funding. CENTURY distributes its product globally across a range of educational levels and aims to offer teachers and learners access to intelligent tools to improve outcomes. Founded in 2013 by Priya Lakhani OBE and headquartered in London, the firm was named Economic Disruptor of the Year by the Spectator.
