What is Knewton?

At Knewton, we believe each student is unique and that their knowledge is not defined by their last answer. Sometimes what a student needs at any moment may not be the next lesson in their textbook. Teachers, schools and education companies use Knewton solutions to adapt to each student’s unique needs with tailored recommendations. Join us to help students have a more positive educational experience.

What have we accomplished since opening our doors in 2008?

We’ve delivered more than 15 billion (that’s right, billion) personalized recommendations to over 13 million students on every continent (okay, except Antarctica). We’re headquartered in beautiful Union Square NYC with offices in London and Tokyo. Investments top $150M from well-known angel investors plus Accel, Bessemer, First Round Capital, Firstmark, Founders Fund, GSV and Atomico.

Do you love driving efficiency through measurement and analysis? We have a long and growing list of interesting projects! Past interns have helped us design back to school metrics, analysis and surveys to empower both students and teachers. At Knewton, Data Insights Interns are a key part of the Data Insights Team who work hand in hand with Product, Data Science and Engineering leaders working at the cutting edge of education software.
