About
Kidsy Limited, through its platform Curious World, provides interactive educational content for children aged 2 to 7, fostering playful learning through engaging videos, games, and books across various subjects. Kidsy Limited, founded in 2018 and headquartered in London, UK, operates within the educational technology sector. The company focuses on delivering educational resources to young children and was acquired by Sandbox & Co from Houghton Mifflin Harcourt in May 2018. The CEO of Kidsy Limited is Kido Wataru.
Curious World offers a diverse suite of educational products and services designed for children aged 2 to 7. The core offering is a subscription-based app that provides access to a wide array of educational videos, games, and books that promote playful learning across eight key educational areas. This platform emphasizes hands-on activities such as cooking, crafting, and science experiments, allowing children to engage in interactive learning experiences. The app is tailored to individual users, enabling customization for up to four children, ensuring that content is age-appropriate and aligned with their interests.
The service is accessible primarily through the Apple App Store and as a web application, catering to a global market including North America, Europe, and parts of Asia, thereby reaching a broad audience of parents seeking quality educational content. In the year 2023, Kidsy Limited reported a revenue of USD 19. 05 mn, with an EBITDA of USD 5. 22 mn.
The company operates on a subscription revenue model, offering monthly and annual plans for users. The pricing structure includes monthly subscriptions at USD 7. 99 and annual subscriptions at USD 51. 99, with promotional discounts available for new customers, such as a 20% off the first year through specific codes at checkout.
Each subscription grants users access to a comprehensive library of educational resources, all presented in a safe, ad-free environment. The company's future strategy includes plans to expand its educational offerings and introduce new products tailored to the evolving needs of its young users. Following the acquisition by Sandbox & Co, Kidsy Limited aims to leverage additional resources for growth. As part of its expansion strategy, Kidsy Limited may consider entering additional international markets, although specific regions and timelines have not been disclosed.
The recent funding will support these initiatives, particularly in enhancing the product development pipeline and increasing market reach.
