Founder story
Founded in 2024 by a team of UK educators and technology experts. They realized that students' biggest roadblock during revision was the lack of immediate feedback on their practice work. They built MarkMe to bring the precision of an examiner to an accessible AI interface, moving from a private beta to a leading GCSE tool within a year.
