Team Interval is an Indian-based educational technology company providing personalized one-to-one online tuition for students from kindergarten to 12th grade. It was founded in 2018 by five friends, Sanafir OK, Ramees Ali, Shibily Ameen, Najim Illyas, and Aslah Thadathil, in Areekode, Kerala. The founders, who shared a passion for individualized education stemming from their own academic experiences, initially started by offering home tuitions to students in their village who needed help with reading and writing.
The business began as a small-scale effort and grew through word-of-mouth, expanding across Kerala. As demand increased, including from outside India, the company transitioned to an online learning platform, officially establishing itself as an e-learning entity in 2021. The platform offers customized learning plans based on an initial assessment that evaluates each student's needs. Their services include academic and non-academic courses, with over 1,000 options available, such as foundation courses, entrance exam preparation, and spoken language classes. The company's model focuses on a "one teacher for one student" concept, ensuring individual attention and mentorship. Serving over 40,000 students in more than 150 cities and 54 countries, the company has a network of over 10,000 tutors.
The company's revenue model is based on affordable and customizable pricing for its tutoring services, offering free demo classes for parents to understand their teaching methods. In a pre-seed funding round, Interval raised ₹2.25 crore from angel investors. The company has received recognition from organizations like the Kerala Startup Mission and the Consulate General of India in Dubai. Ramees Ali currently serves as the CEO, with the founding team holding other key leadership positions.
