ABOUT US: Hey there! Welcome to Classavo, the spunky EdTech startup that’s shaking up the education scene. “Democratizing access to education” might sound like a cliché but here, we actually mean it.

Because we’ve made learning way more fun, affordable, and, dare we say, cool. Best part? Students get access to everything for just $35 per semester. That’s right, all their classes.
