But you have 3 problems:
Most kids don't have the agency to succeed!
How to prove skills learned in kids' portfolio?
1-on-1 mentorship takes so much time and effort!
How does Ponder solve your problems?
Self-accountable kids with visualization 🔮
Po, an AI mentor, brainstorms and co-designs a personalized passion project journey with your kids.
During conversations, Po is building an AI persona of the future version of themselves to help them visualize success, build agency, and be self-accountable.
Have fun while tracking progress 🎮
Track project progress made, real-world skills acquired, and knowledge learned to add to their portfolio.
Earn rewards, climb leaderboards, and level up; project-based learning is as fun to kids as their favorite video game.

Why Ponder?
We believe education in 2035 will and should be radically different.
Real-world career knowledge and skills will replace most of the traditional subjects. The projects one has built and their impact will replace any test scores. (In fact, it is already happening with hiring in 2024.)
Education has been broken for too long. We want to accelerate this transformation by solving all problems education reformers have.
Ponder will be the catalyst of this reform. It will be at the center of the future of education.
Let’s build an education that fosters changemakers and innovators rather than test-takers.
