One responsible AI engine — AspireX — and a total solution that turns enrollment into real score gains. Reading, math, SSAT, SAT, AP, English proficiency, and admissions — on a single engine.
Tutoring and test prep is a $130 billion market, with Asia the largest share. Schools run programs like IXL; prep has platforms like Test Innovators. Yet most students are still grinding through books — and the programs that exist mostly fail, for two reasons.
Online completion runs between 5 and 15%. Self-paced programs carry no accountability, so students quit.
Programs mark the answer right or wrong and show the solution — but never explain the error, so the same mistakes repeat.
Explaining the error helps far more (≈0.49 effect size) than just giving the answer (0.33). Diagnosis beats drilling.
Time and money go in. Results don't come out.
AspireX is our differentiator — an AI engine that engineers learning to happen. Every IPE product is AspireX pointed at a subject. Built with VinUniversity, led by Simon Park, a pioneer of AI in education.
So we built AspireX to nurture, not just optimise: grounded by Ontology so it doesn't hallucinate, aware of a child's anxiety and attention, measuring real learning — not vibes.
A patient teacher, not a vending machine. Our edge — and it travels to every product.
Students don't log in on their own — nobody does. So every day they get a set amount of work, submit it, and the parent is notified. Then every week, AI together with a real expert reviews why they miss what they miss, and hands them a study method built for that one student.
30 minutes a day → accurate diagnosis → a plan made for that one student.
In our own academies, the method delivers score jumps that point tools simply don't. This is our field data — and we'll prove it again, transparently, anywhere we deploy.
The difference between buying a program and getting a result.
Figures are our own academy field results, to be re-validated transparently in each deployment.
The method works anywhere students grind for exams — and that's all of Asia. International SAT testing has reached nearly two million students a year and keeps climbing, with China and Vietnam among the fastest-growing. Vietnam is an ideal place to start, and from there the same engine scales across Southeast Asia, and into Taiwan and China.
Reading, math, test prep, languages, and admissions — every product is AspireX pointed at a subject, all running on IPE Ops.
The evidence-based way reading is actually learned — decode → fluency → comprehend. Legislated in 40+ US states; the first online program built on UFLI (University of Florida). Our K–7 line is the sequence: Phonics → Cedar Park → ASCEND.
Adaptive math practice with error-driven diagnosis — the same engine, on numbers.
Structured SSAT prep — verbal, quantitative, and reading, diagnosed weekly.
English proficiency and Korean programs — more subjects, same engine.
Neuro-adaptive SAT prep — the engine on the hardest exam. +100 points in 45–60 hours.
Consulting into universities worldwide — the human layer on our data.
The tools that exist are point solutions — and a point tool can't fix the two failures, because they were never about content. They're about getting students to engage, and telling them why they're wrong.
IXL covers a couple of subjects; Test Innovators covers one exam. Useful — but they still leave engagement and diagnosis unsolved.
Reading, math, SSAT, SAT, AP, proficiency, admissions — and the platform academies run on. All sharing one philosophy.
We run real academies every day — Readingtown Canada and Ivy Academy. We built the software because we needed it, then made it work.
