Edwin Company Information
Originally named Edwin.ai and founded in November 2017, Edwin participated in Y Combinator’s W18 batch and was later acquired by MyBuddy.ai in early 2020. The company, headquartered in San Francisco, California, operates globally with a focus on providing affordable, personalized English language learning solutions. It serves a significant market, aiming to reach over 500 million children worldwide. Edwin’s flagship product, the Buddy app, is a voice-based English tutor that leverages adaptive learning and Natural Language Understanding technology. This technology is integrated with pedagogical content and on-demand human instructors to enhance the learning experience. The app has successfully helped over 800 thousand students improve their English skills. Edwin was supported by notable investors including General Catalyst, Y Combinator, and the Google Assistant Investments Program. Despite its small team size of 14, Edwin has made significant impacts in the education sector, particularly in English language learning for children. The company’s operations are not only limited to the United States and Canada but are also fully remote, reflecting a modern approach to global business and education.
