Latest: The Guardian's feature on Kuato Studios and Hakitzu.

Young people around the world tell us they want new ways to learn. Kuato Studios is answering their call.

Kuato Studios is an EdTech start up that aims to disrupt and capture the supplemental non-school education market by building smart, engaging tech driven products which merge the worlds of Gaming and Learning with next-generation AI to create a suite of beautiful apps through which young people will learn.

We believe that new and innovative technology should be celebrated. Kids today use this technology intuitively; they have it at their disposal in all aspects of their life. We want to combine this intuition for technology with education and disrupt the way kids learn. 

The studio has two divisions: educational gaming and AI. 

Our AI team is building an intelligent, truly adaptive learning platform around a Smart Tutor. Starting with a cutting edge research platform from SRI (the research lab that created Siri) our core mission is to create the experience of one-to-one tutoring using state of the art Natural Language Processing and AI tools. Blending NLP with reasoning logic, we are creating an adaptive and personalised mentor to guide students through a variety of learning journeys and experiences.

Our Games team is developing a series of products that that encourage and challenge kids to learn concepts like coding through the mechanics of video games. 

Our first product demonstrates this. Hakitzu: Code of the Warrior is an epic JavaScript-based strategy game, where players build the ultimate warrior robot and use code to survive. 

Hakitzu, is available and free to download from iTunes now https://itunes.apple.com/app/fetch/id599976903?mt=8
