Former Google trio is building an interactive AI-powered learning app for kids | TechCrunch
"Kids, by definition, are very curious, and my son would ask me questions about how cars work or how it rains. My approach was to use ChatGPT or Gemini to explain these concepts to a six-year-old, but that is still a wall of text. What kids want is an interactive experience. This was our core process behind founding Sparkli,"
"When a kid asked what Mars looks like fifty years ago, we might have shown them a picture,"
"Ten years ago, we might have shown them a video. With Sparkli, we want kids to interact and experience what Mars is like."
Sparkli is a generative AI-powered interactive learning app founded by former Google employees Lax Poojary, Lucie Marchand, and Myn Kang. The app aims to replace static text and voice explanations with immersive, interactive experiences that satisfy children's curiosity. Sparkli offers AI-powered learning "expeditions" across predefined topics and user-driven questions, and surfaces a new topic daily to encourage ongoing discovery. The startup emphasizes teaching modern concepts like design skills, financial literacy, and entrepreneurship through guided learning paths and interactive exploration rather than traditional pictures or videos.
