Speak Agent, Inc. is an education company dedicated to closing the academic achievement gap for special populations like ELLs (English Language Learners). The company was born out of the CEO’s frustration as a former teacher with the lack of tools to teach academic English. Its solution is an online platform for teaching vocabulary in all subjects. It has received awards from the Dept. of Education, DARPA, NSF, TEDCO, and NewSchools Venture Fund.
