About

The startup claims teachers have used its services in India to create over 50,000 assessment questions for students that has helped them save an estimated 7,000 hours. The startup will use the funds in this round to improve its operating system and enter emerging markets. Launched earlier this year, Jackett provides an AI- and machine learning-enabled operating system to teachers for automating time-consuming tasks such as creating, grading and personalising assessments. Trugdill believes the funding will enable Jackett to continue building next-generation tools for teachers to do what they love and help unlock the potential of students.
