Mtabe is an EdTech startup with a mission to provide learning solutions for secondary school students in Africa. Founded in 2017 and based in Tanzania, Mtabe operates as a questions and answers platform, where students can subscribe to a monthly service and receive instant answers from a pool of qualified teachers available 24/7. The company's slogan "Mtabe is a questions & answers learning platform for secondary school students in Africa" encapsulates its core offering.
The startup's goal is to leverage technology to make learning easier, quicker, and more efficient for young people in Africa, especially those who do not have internet access or cannot afford textbooks. With only 3 out of 10 people in Africa having internet access, Mtabe targets the remaining 7 through the use of artificial intelligence and SMS technology.
Notably, Mtabe secured a $40.00K Seed Round investment from Injini on 10 October 2017. The company's alignment with the education and internet industries underpins its focus on leveraging technology to provide accessible education in Africa.
The diverse team of educators, developers, entrepreneurs, and experts at Mtabe collaborate to ensure that the platform covers all aspects of learning, aiming for maximum impact on the students it serves.
