Team at AlgoUniversity

Our Story

We started on a mission to democratize education. We believe that anyone with skills should be able to teach, and anyone who wants to learn should be able to access the resources. We are building a wide range of products and services to help education at scale.

We are backed by the world's best tech accelerator, YCombinator. We raised a first round of $1 million and share the alumni network of companies like Airbnb, Meesho, Razorpay, and more.

Tim Brady — Yahoo's first employee and former YC Group Partner — and Michael Seibel — co-founder of Justin.tv (Twitch) and former Managing Director of YC — are our direct mentors and are invested in our success.

We are a team of 100% problem solvers.

We house a young energetic team of ACM ICPC world finalists, Olympiad medalists (won a total of 4 medals for India!), and engineers from Google, Apple and Microsoft.
