Brisk Teaching Raises $15M in Series A Funding Led by Bessemer Venture Partners

Brisk Teaching, the prominent AI teaching and learning agent for K-12 schools, has successfully secured a $15 million Series A funding round. The funding, spearheaded by Bessemer Venture Partners and with contributions from existing investors Owl Ventures, South Park Commons, and Springbank Collective, will further propel Brisk's transition from a suite of AI-driven tools to a classroom agent that harnesses its position in the browser to understand the needs of both students and teachers.

With a user base of more than one million educators spanning over 100 countries, Brisk intends to utilize this investment to extend its influence, combat teacher burnout, and offer essential personalized support for students. Its AI-driven extension seamlessly integrates into educators' workflows while providing tailored support for students, aiming to transform classroom instruction and alleviate the challenges posed by the historic teacher shortage due to burnout.

Brisk has experienced rapid growth, expanding its user base five-fold since the announcement of a $5 million Seed round in September 2024, making it one of the most widely adopted education platforms in K-12 schools. The company has also prioritized student privacy and security, garnering recognition for its privacy measures from organizations such as the Student Privacy Pledge and Common Sense Media. The funding will enable Brisk to focus on product development, empowering students, teachers, and administrators to personalize Brisk to meet their specific needs.
