Spark Studio

About

Meet Sparky, a fun and quirky AI buddy in the avatar of a friendly fox who kids can just speak with to build fluency and confidence with English speaking. Powered by Generative AI, and made magical with child-appropriate experience, features and topics, Sparky brings a whole world of knowledge and a judgement-free environment for kids to become comfortable with speaking English. 142 countries (outside English dominant countries) mandate English learning as part of the national education policy. These kids have exposure to English but feel underconfident and embarrassed to speak. The biggest problem across the classes and books they get, is the lack of real conversational practice. With AI, we're making this affordable accessible and enjoyable for kids across the world. We're a passionate team of educators with over 30 years of combined experience in building education products for kids and have held leadership positions are India's biggest education companies - Byju's and LEAD.
