Isaac Medeiros and David Peixoto co-founded Isaac in 2020. Medeiros, a trained architect, previously founded a successful school uniform e-commerce platform, an experience that exposed him to the financial and operational challenges faced by educational institutions. Peixoto brought a complementary background in the financial market, having worked at companies like BTG Pactual and serving as CFO at a receivables management firm. This blend of educational sector insight and financial expertise shaped Isaac's mission.

The company operates as a financial technology platform designed to support private schools in Brazil by guaranteeing the receipt of monthly tuition fees. This service provides schools with a predictable and stable revenue stream, addressing the common issue of late or non-payment by parents. For a fee, Isaac assumes the collection risk, paying the school the full amount of its monthly receivables upfront. The platform then manages the billing and collection process directly with the families, offering them flexible payment options such as credit card, bank slip (boleto), and Pix.

Beyond revenue management, Isaac has expanded its offerings to become a broader solutions provider for schools. The platform, referred to as "Isaac na Escola," integrates various school management functionalities. This includes tools for communication with parents, student information management, and other administrative tasks, aiming to centralize and simplify school operations. By bundling financial guarantees with administrative software, Isaac positions itself as an all-in-one operating system for educational institutions, primarily serving the K-12 private school market in Brazil.
