About Primer

Fixing our K-12 education system is a civilizationally-important problem. We believe that all of our problems including the ones that dominate the headlines are downstream of education.

We have a simple thesis on how to solve it : empower 1000s of educators to launch microschools in their communities.

We believe the historical tradeoff between price (tuition) and quality is a false dichotomy.

PrimerOS automates and eliminates much of the costs of traditional schools. Microschools have a structural advantage asset-light real estate which means much lower capex and opex. You put it together and you get something thats never existed before : a world-class education thats accessible to normal American families and can rapidly scale.
