Zenius

Old school meets new rules. Say hey to Zenius, an Indonesian edtech startup that focuses on helping K-12 students learn online and get admitted to their dream universities.

They've just acquired Primagama, one of Indonesia's largest offline tutoring services. The amount's hush-hush, but big things are ahead.

  • Zenius has over 20M registered users and was backed by Alpha JWC and Openspace during their Pre-Series B.
  • Zenius has helped over 15,000 students pass university exams in Indonesia and abroad as of 2020.
  • Founded in 1982, Primagama's got over 300 branches, 3,000 teaching staff and serves 30,000+ students each year.

📚  Become a Zenius

Zenius offers multiple paid packages with different levels of access to its products, including:

Concept videos. Zenius has over 100,000 recorded videos to help students learn concepts anytime, anywhere.

AI chatbot. Remember the times you'd waste hours stuck on a question? Its chatbot can instantly answer students' questions on its mobile app or Whatsapp.

Live classes. Join interactive classes, where you can ask questions from your tutor.

Exam simulation. Set yourself up with success with its practice questions designed and scored like the real UTBK (Indonesian standardized university test).

👯‍♀️  Perfect pair?

With the acquisition, Primagama will be able to use Zenius' resources to serve its students better.

  • It'll also get to double down on tech and improve its teachers, curriculum and facilities.

Win- win. Zenius will also be able to expand to offline services, adding a new revenue channel. Plus, it gains Primagama's years of expertise.
