Quix

Quix is a corporate education startup that provides customized, scalable, and accessible training programs for employees through WhatsApp. Founded in 2024 by Santiago Gómez, Carlos Alarcón, Julia Insua, and Ignacio Barrea, the company targets businesses with workforces that do not primarily operate from a desk. The founders leveraged their collective experience from working at other EdTech companies like Platzi and Digital House to create Quix.

The company's software as a service (SaaS) platform enables organizations to convert their existing training materials into interactive microlearning modules. These courses are then delivered to employees via WhatsApp, featuring short videos, interactive questions, and role-playing scenarios to validate learning. An AI-powered tutor is available 24/7 to answer employee questions and provide personalized follow-up, ensuring high engagement and completion rates. Quix reports that this methodology achieves over 80% completion rates and can reduce training costs by up to 50%.

Quix operates on a B2B subscription model, charging a monthly fee of approximately $5 per employee, which allows companies to create and distribute an unlimited number of courses to their subscribed staff. The company also offers a one-time training plan for a single course. Currently operating in Argentina and Colombia, Quix is running over 20 pilot programs and is seeking to raise a $300,000 pre-seed round to acquire new clients and further enhance its platform.
