How we got here

Our Story

Built in Montréal

It started in Montréal. A team of computer scientists and educators built a learning platform and put it in front of students at top boarding schools and universities across North America. It worked: engagement rose, and outcomes followed.

Expanded globally

We brought it to schools on multiple continents, including some of the most underserved and war-torn regions on Earth. Everywhere, students engaged immediately.

Hit a wall

Then we hit a wall. The communities that needed us most had no computers, no power, and no internet, and no learning content in their own language. Great software alone could never reach them.

A modular solution that provides it all

Power, connectivity, hardware, and the platform, delivered as one.

Deployment

We meet schools where they are

One platform. Three deployment modes. Whatever it takes to deliver it.

Capyo platform
Has computers & wifi

Platform Only

We deploy the platform and train your teachers. Classrooms run in days.

The Crate
Has electricity only

The Crate

Laptops and Starlink in a road case, preloaded and ready to teach.

The Container
Has no resources

The Container

A full classroom that arrives on a truck. Everything is inside, ready to open.

The Container is built in North America, in partnership with the continent's largest shipping-container customizer.

How we measure it: the Capyo Impact Test

Our own assessment, aligned to the international EGRA and EGMA standards for early literacy and numeracy, run at the start and end of every deployment. Every gain is measured the way the world measures it.

How it runs

The Capyo Process

How we work with every school that comes through us or our partner network.

1

School assessed

We map each school's needs and the right deployment.

2

Funding secured

A corporate or government funder is paired to that school.

3

Deployment built

Hardware sourced, equipment assembled, platform configured.

4

Shipped

Delivered and set up on-site with a local liaison.

5

Impact measured

Launched, Impact Test run, results reported back.

Total traceability

Every funder knows exactly which school they backed, and how its students are doing, tracked end to end.

A local liaison on every deployment

A trained, pre-vetted community member who lives near the school, speaks the language, and handles setup and support on the ground.

The bigger picture

Education is just the beginning

Because Capyo isn't in the business of creating educational material (schools bring their own), the very same platform adapts to far more than the classroom. One engine, in any language, for any skill a community needs.

The same platform, applied beyond school

🇧🇮 Burundi Live

Medical training

Capyo trains healthcare and aid workers on the ground: nurses, midwives, and community health staff, in regions where trained doctors are scarce.

🇲🇼 Malawi Live

Agricultural training

Practical, modern farming skills that lift yields, soil health, and incomes for the smallholder farmers who feed their communities.

🇨🇦 Montréal Live

Refugee integration

French-language and job-readiness training that helps newcomers find work and build a life in Québec.

🇳🇬Live in Nigeria today

Creating economic opportunity

Capyo turns any curriculum into printed textbooks, then puts them in the hands of students, teachers, and local bookshop owners to sell, turning education itself into local income. They're on shelves across Nigeria right now.

Reach

The moment

Why now

The crisis
244M
children out of school today
  • Despite a decade of rising funding, the figure has barely moved.
  • 9 in 10 children in sub-Saharan Africa can't read a simple sentence by age 10.
  • Roughly $16B a year flows into education aid, yet the gap keeps widening.
The technology opportunity

None of this was possible even a few years ago. Four shifts arrived, all at once.

Artificial intelligence

A patient tutor for every child, in 100+ languages, at near-zero cost.

Satellite internet

High-speed connectivity reaching anywhere on Earth, no grid required.

Solar power

Cheap, reliable energy runs a full classroom anywhere the sun reaches.

Affordable hardware

Plummeting costs put a reliable laptop in a student's hands for around $200.

Capyo is a technology company bringing a builder's mindset and a team of veteran educators to a global problem that has waited far too long for execution, speed, and agility.

Become a sponsor

Pick a school. A hospital.
A refugee camp.

Most giving disappears into overhead and good intentions. Yours won't. You pick one real place, and we put a complete classroom there, tracked to the student.

Why this isn't writing a cheque

Lifelong value: one gift funds years of teaching, not a one-time handout.

Live in weeks: a real classroom up and running fast, not a pledge for "someday."

Tracked to the student: outcomes from the exact place you chose, not a glossy report.

Everything included: hardware, power, platform, and people, not a fraction of a line item.
