This Job About Paloma:

The achievement gap has persisted for the past half century, despite trillions invested in classroom intervention. Research shows that familiesnot schoolsare the biggest determinants of student success. Parents love for their children is the single greatestand most underutilizednatural resource in education.

Paloma is a venture-backed startup that harnesses AI to unleash parents' untapped teaching potential. Our mobile app helps PreK-2 families build a habit of tutoring their kids for 15 minutes a day. Parents deliver rigorous, curriculum-aligned, and joyful instruction daily at home. Over a school year, this unlocks 1,000 hours of one-on-one instruction for every classroom! Check out a short demo here.

In 55 Title I districts across the countryincluding Houston ISD, LAUSD, and NYCPSwe're getting most rostered parents to successfully tutor their kids. Families use Paloma with remarkable consistency; our monthly user retention outperforms Duolingo and Candy Crush. Last year, this accelerated reading growth by 64%, with even larger gains for multilingual learners. Parents produced the same effect size as high-dosage tutoring, without the usual expense or staffing requirements.

As one district leader put it, Paloma awakens the sleeping giant of parents as tutors. Were on a mission to create a world in which every parent is enabled to help their kids thrive.
