Nurovant AI was founded by SMU student Trevor Gicheru to address his own ADHD-related learning challenges by using AI to distill lectures and content into study materials. The app extracts salient points from audio, creates flashcards and quizzes, provides summaries, and now includes chatbot capabilities and live-presentation support. It began as a B2C product and grew via word-of-mouth, Google Ads and SEO, reaching several thousand monthly active users and hundreds of thousands of signups. The product is being adapted for schools, with K–12 and higher-education institutions (including Harvard, MIT, UT‑Austin and Texas A&M) supporting the venture and pilot integrations such as Zoom. Gicheru has raised $345,000 to date and is using the capital to scale and evolve the product. He was accepted into the next Techstars cohort and aims to raise a $2–3 million seed round in early 2025.
