The participating founders who sold the last anchor to start operating to Spotify are launching their next project: OboeIt is an educational application that works with the same Amnesty International that enables anyone to create light and flexible educational courses on almost any topic they choose, simply by entering a wave.
These training courses can extend over a variety of vertical, including topics such as science, history, foreign language, news, pop culture, preparation for life changes and more. At all, Oppo – a name inspired by the root of the Japanese word Meaning “for learning” – will offer nine different formats for the course. This allows users to learn the way they prefer Nir Zerherman Clear to break.
Zicherman founded the company along with the co -founder of the anchor Michael Minano After leaving Spotify in October 2023 and took a short period of recharge. Zerherman said that it was an inspiration to work on an educational product of artificial intelligence after working to expand the scope of Spotify audio work, which made it easy for people to reach high -quality and educational content, as it was assembled by their participation in music.
Unlike AI Chatbots, you should not participate in back and forth conversations to learn with the oboe. Instead, you can choose texts, visuals, audio cycles, games, interactive tests, and more.
For those who want to learn while moving, the oboe offers two vocal formats. One feels like watching a lecture like the university, while the other looks like a Google LM notebook, as it is characterized by hosts talking deeply on this topic.
“The real magic here comes from an internal structure that we have built, which I will describe as a complex, multi -agent structure, which we built from the zero point, each part of which is organized in parallel with Toulina as a path.”
He says: “The challenge is, how can you create high -quality training courses, and allocate them fully for what the user wants to see, and also generates very quickly? All this happens within seconds.”
He added: “We have agents, in parallel, are responsible for everything from developing the training course to develop and verify the basic materials that are taught, writing the text’s textual program, and withdrawing real images from the Internet-and not the images created from artificial intelligence, but the real images and visuals in the reading formats that we offer.”
Some oboe agents review the content to ensure that the courses are accurate and high quality and allocate what the user wants to learn.
The same courses are supposed to be lightweight, attractive, and even enjoyable. In addition, the Oboe team works on a recommendation engine that will constantly help you in depth in a topic, if you prefer it. This leaves the user if they want to get some surface knowledge on a new topic or whether they want to get more depth.
This, in addition to a variety of formats, will help the oboe to appear for a wider audience, as the team believes.
“For me, education evokes pictures of more formal academic places and the compulsory curricula that students use with their growth,” says Techcrunch. “But the truth is that we are all educated for life … a lot of time we spend on the Internet these days spent trying to better understand things, but the truth is that the Internet has been designed to attract our attention, not an effective teaching.”
He said: “We are very excited to build a platform that aims to be one store to serve this fundamental thirst for the knowledge in every person.”
At launch, users can consume any training course by others for free and can create up to five free cycles per month. Next, there are two paid levels: Oboe Plus, which offers an additional 30 rounds for $ 15 per month, and Oboe Pro, which offers 100 training courses for $ 40 per month.
The service will be first available on Web (And mobile phone network), but the original applications of iOS and Android operating system are on the road.
The oboe is a five -time team, including zicherman. Mignano is still a full -time partner in VC FIRM LightSpeed, but it sits on the Oboe board and shares the title of the co -founder.
ENIAC VENTERES, the VC company, which has led the 4 million dollar seeds, the VC company that led the seed of the anchor. The tour also includes investment from Haystack, Factorial Capital, Homebrew, Offline Ventures, Scott Belsky, Kayvon Beykpour, Nikita Bier, Tim Ferriss and Matt Lieber.
