**SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 18, 2024** – Brisk Teaching, the leading AI-powered Chrome extension for educators, has secured $5 million in funding, bringing its total investment to $6.9 million. This round, led by Owl Ventures and joined by several other investors, will fuel the company’s growth and accelerate product development.

Brisk Teaching, which is used by over 500,000 educators worldwide, offers a free Chrome extension that integrates with existing curriculum and learning management systems, automating tedious tasks like grading and lesson planning. This allows teachers to reclaim up to 20 hours per week, reducing burnout and enabling them to focus on student needs.

The company also announced the launch of “Brisk Boost,” a new AI-powered tool designed to personalize learning experiences for students. Brisk Boost functions as a personalized tutor, adapting to each student’s needs and providing instant support, adaptive quizzes, and interactive brainstorming sessions.

“Brisk is committed to making teaching sustainable by automating the time-consuming digital work that teachers do each week,” said Arman Jaffer, Founder and CEO of Brisk Teaching. “With this funding, we will scale our new student-facing tool, Boost, allowing teachers to offer personalized learning activities that would otherwise be too time-consuming to manage.”

Brisk Boost aims to address concerns around the use of AI in education. While some school districts have banned AI tools like ChatGPT, Brisk Boost provides a safe and controlled environment for students to engage with AI in a positive and educational way.

“Brisk has been a game-changer for my classroom,” said Kelly Ann Seaman, Educator and Brisk Teaching User. “It has made my job so much more manageable and allowed me to give quality feedback to my students in seconds.”

Brisk Teaching continues to expand its reach, providing educators with innovative tools that leverage the power of AI to enhance learning experiences for both teachers and students.
