UK edtech startup Medly AI raised $8 million in seed funding to expand its AI-powered exam tutoring platform across the UK and internationally. The platform, launched in February 2025, has already reached over 400,000 UK users and uses a combination of seven large language models with neuroscience-informed approaches to provide personalized feedback on practice questions and adaptive learning support. The company plans to use the funding to grow its UK student base, expand internationally with SAT preparation in the US, and develop proprietary AI models for marking and pedagogy to make personalized tutoring more accessible to students regardless of financial means.
