## About

Based in Seoul, South Korea, and founded in 2016, Jaranda operates as online childhood education and child care matching platform. In April 2022, Jaranda raised KRW 31 billion in series B funding led by returning investor Korea Investment Partners, with participation from new investor Company K Partners. Returning investors Atinum Investment, IP VENTURES, Kakao Ventures, and Korea Development Bank also participated in this round.

Jaranda operates an online platform that matches private teachers and children with education programs. It offers a variety of educational programs such as music, art, English, play education, and other types of educational activities and programs. Jaranda also uses machine learning-based algorithms to analyze and automatically suggest educational programs, textbooks, and toys for children. 

Jaranda's revenue is generated from the brokerage fee connecting private teachers with the students.

The company will use the April 2022 funding to establish a recommendation system that provides customized solutions according to the life cycle of children.
