About the target

MathU Teaching Emporium (Pty) Ltd (MathU) is a South African education technology company based in Brooklyn, Pretoria. MathU develops adaptive learning software for Grade 7 to 12 learners in Mathematics and Physical Science, and its website also lists English and accounting. The MathU Infinity mobile app delivers video lessons, exercise sets with worked memoranda and instantly graded assessments. AgenticONE, MathU's artificial intelligence tutor, guides learners through problems in several languages, while the OnlyTests book series links printed past papers to the app through QR codes. MathU organises its work into Academy, Corporate and Society divisions serving families, schools, employers and sponsors. Its platform is used in private schools under the Advlearn brand. MathU's Society programmes provide devices, data and mentoring to learners in under-resourced communities, and the company is working to make the Infinity app available without data charges in non-fee-paying schools.
