Hungary's EdTech startup BOOKR Kids has secured €6.1 million in Series A funding to expand its global learning platform focused on literacy, language development and AI readiness. The investment was led by TCEE Fund IV, with participation from 3TS Capital Partners, Leib Lurie, Robert Iskander, Infinit Capital Oy, the Koponen family’s Finnish investment vehicle, and Albert Sárospataki through the FusionWise angel syndicate.
Dr. Dorka Horváth, CEO and co-founder of BOOKR Kids, stated that the funds will be used to build the learning infrastructure that will help children compete on depth of comprehension, curiosity, judgement and question-asking abilities against AI. The round comes amid increased investment in European language-learning and AI-supported education platforms, including Preply's €127 million funding, London's Medly AI's €6.89 million, and Lucida AI's €6.1 million.
BOOKR Kids, founded in 2015, has grown to serve over 600,000 paying students across 3,000 schools in more than 30 countries, operating primarily in the global English-language-learning market. The company's platform combines animated, interactive books with diagnostic tools and curriculum-aligned teaching materials, with new AI-driven features in development.
The funding will be allocated to global expansion, developing NEXT for secondary education and vocational pathways, expanding Phonics for early literacy, scaling the Teacher Dashboard, and launching Speaking Studio for multilingual expansion.
