Wiingy, a robotics-focused EdTech startup founded in 2021 by Asit Biswal (an IIM Ahmedabad alumnus), is revolutionizing co-curricular education for children aged 5-15.
With a unique "learning by building" approach, Wiingy offers a hands-on experience through robotics kits and 1-on-1 live online classes. The startup focuses on coding, advanced sciences, and STEM subjects, aiming to engage students in practical projects, guided coding, and community events.
Having raised $400,000 in angel funding led by Aroa Ventures and OYO leadership investors, Wiingy plans to scale its offerings and expand its team across technology, product, and teaching.
The company currently provides a rigorous tutor vetting process, accepting fewer than 3% of applicants to ensure top-notch quality education. Starting at just $28 per hour, Wiingy's flexible pricing model ensures accessibility, with no long-term subscriptions required.
Beyond robotics, Wiingy is venturing into courses covering artificial intelligence, wireless networking, coding, and physics, staying ahead of the curve in an ever-evolving educational landscape.
Their main competitors include Preply, Superprof, and Pearson's Smarthinking, but Wiingy differentiates itself with its expert-vetted tutors and hands-on STEM approach.
Is Wiingy the future of experiential learning in the STEM field? The rapid growth and unique offerings suggest they might just be!
