About Chimple: Chimple is a product of Sutara Learning Foundation whose mission is to build a gamified, personalized and adaptive learning system which guides a child from absolutely no knowledge of the alphabet to a stage where the child can read to learn and perform basic arithmetic. Chimple aims to educate the children of the world using joyful mobile software that encourages self-driven learning. We envision children using the tablet as a lifelong friend on their journey of discovery. We believe that modern technology has a profound influence on learning that has not yet been utilized for learning by children.
Chimple has implemented in-school programs in 15 BMC schools in Mumbai and our at-home learning app has been used by 25,000 children across India. This year we are planning to conduct an year long research evaluation across 35-40 schools in the Haryana/UP area in coordination with respected organizations in the Education/Development sector. We will also be conducting programs in Karnataka and suburbs of Mumbai. Due to the potential for huge scale up of EdTech solutions, we believe we are just beginning to make an impact and our goal is to reach 1 million children across India in 3 years.
Chimple is among the 5 Finalists in the competitive Global Learning XPRIZE which challenges teams from around the world to develop open source and scalable software that will enable children in developing countries to teach themselves basic reading, writing and arithmetic within 15 months. Chimple is a grantee of Central Square Foundation.
