Qweebi, an online STEM learning platform that enables schools to run hands-on engineering and robotics projects entirely through a web browser, has raised $500,000 in a seed funding round led by Inflection Point Ventures (IPV), a Gurugram-based angel investment platform.
The round also saw participation from Jeroen Tas, former Co-founder of Mphasis and Chief Innovation & Strategy Officer at Philips, and Arpit Jain, Co-founder & CEO of SplashLearn, a leading K-12 math platform in the United States.
Qweebi is an online buildrspace that enables K-12 schools and teachers to run hands-on STEM projects directly in a web browser. The platform allows students to design, build, and test engineering & robotics projects in a virtual environment, supporting schools deliver cutting-edge STEM learning without the cost and logistics challenges of physical materials.
The edtech startup plans to apply the funds to further develop its product and expand adoption across US school districts. The startup claims that over 5,200 schools across all 50 US states have signed up to apply its platform.
“If you really want to master something, you have to actually do it, you can’t just read about it or watch someone else do it. That’s something we all know, and it’s the essence of hands-on learning. School systems around the world are increasingly relocating beyond books and videos toward hands-on experiences. But in real classrooms, cost and friction still build it extremely difficult for teachers to run these projects at scale. At Qweebi, we’re rerelocating these barriers to build hands-on learning simple and accessible, so every child has the opportunity to truly learn-by-doing,” stated Vivek Seetharaman, CEO of Qweebi.
Commenting on the investment, Mitesh Shah, Co-founder, Inflection Point Ventures, stated, “STEM education is becoming increasingly important in preparing students for the future workforce, yet schools often struggle with the costs and logistics involved in delivering hands-on learning. Qweebi’s browser-based approach rerelocates these barriers by building engineering and robotics education accessible without requiring physical infrastructure. Their strong organic adoption across US schools demonstrates the real demand for scalable digital STEM learning solutions, and we believe the team is well positioned to expand this model globally.”
