About RikRak

Measured academic growth

The Problem

The best kind of instruction has stayed out of reach.

The gold standard of education has always been the same: a dedicated tutor who knows you, challenges you, and adapts to how you think. That kind of attention produces results. It also costs $160 to $320 a month, per child, per subject.

Most families are left choosing between apps that drill and forget, or learning centers that teach to the middle. The students who need the most help get the least personalized instruction. The ones who could push further do not get pushed.

Traditional Cost

$160-$320

Per month, per child, per subject for the level of attention that actually changes outcomes.

What Families Get Instead

Drill apps or middle-of-the-pack instruction

Plenty of activity, not enough adaptation, challenge, or real one-on-one teaching.

What RikRak Is

An AI tutor that teaches, not a learning app with better copy.

RikRak delivers real one-on-one instruction. Not a quiz app. Not a video library. A tutor that teaches. We are starting where it matters most: helping middle school and high school students improve their MAP scores with sessions built around measurable academic growth.

01

Every session is a live conversation between the student and their AI tutor.

02

RikRak adapts in real time, adjusting difficulty and switching approaches when something is not clicking.

03

When a student masters a concept, the response is not confetti. It is a harder problem.

Built Around Growth

The subjects, pacing, and practice are aligned to assessments that track real academic progress. The point is not to keep a student busy. The point is to move them forward.

Why We Built This

AI should raise the bar in education, not lower it.

When AI started reshaping education, most of the conversation was about what could go wrong: students using chatbots to skip the work, teachers losing control of the classroom, shortcuts replacing understanding.

RikRak exists because AI can do the opposite. It can give every student what only a few have ever had access to: a tutor who shows up every day, knows exactly where they are, and holds them to a standard worth reaching. The technology finally makes that possible. Someone needed to build it right.

Founder

Lucas Price

RikRak was founded with a simple conviction: every student should have access to a tutor who knows them, challenges them, and helps them earn real progress.

How We're Different

The standard is high because the student is capable.

One-on-one, always.

No pre-recorded content. No one-size-fits-all problem sets. Every session is built for the student in front of it: their level, their gaps, their pace.

Rigorous but not rigid.

We don't lower the bar. We help students reach it. RikRak pushes to the edge of what a student knows and builds from there. That's how real learning works.

Honest encouragement.

We celebrate real achievement, not participation. When RikRak says 'you got this,' it's because the student earned it. Encouragement that means something drives effort that produces results.

Built for students, trusted by parents.

Students work with a tutor that respects their intelligence. Parents get clear progress reporting that shows exactly what their child is learning and where they're growing.

Where We're Going

One model, many contexts, the same standard.

Middle school and high school MAP growth is the first milestone, not the final market.
The same one-on-one model extends naturally to every subject and every standardized test a student faces.
Teachers should be able to upload curriculum or standards and have RikRak tutor each student in the exact context of that classroom.
The tutor-student pair scales beyond K-12 to language learning, certification prep, and professional study.

Why The Name Stuck

RikRak does not have an origin myth. It was hard to find a name in education without trademark conflicts, and this one stayed. It is fun to say, easy to remember, and serious enough to carry the mission.

Two syllables. Two entities.

A tutor and a student, working together.

The Standard Is Excellence

The right tutor should not be a luxury product.

Every student has potential that the right tutor can unlock. We built RikRak so that tutor is available to every family, any subject, any time, at a price that does not require privilege.

$35 a month

Less than a single hour of private tutoring for unlimited one-on-one sessions that adapt, challenge, and grow with your child.

We're building RikRak now. Be among the first to experience it.
