Liulishuo - Company Profile

Liulishuo is an AI + Education startup founded in 2012 by Yi Wang, Hui Lin, and Ben Hu. The company is known for its innovative approach in developing the world's first “AI English Teacher” based on deep learning. This technology provides personalized and adaptive learning paths, proven to triple the learning efficiency compared to human teachers by CEFR standards. With a focus on Chinese speaking English, the company has accumulated the world’s largest database in this area and independently developed a multi-dimensional, multi-granularity auto scoring engine and adaptive learning system. The flagship mobile app product, "英语流利说," has gained significant traction with more than 60 million registered users and over 600K paid users from 379 cities in China and over 175 countries globally. Being recognized by Apple as “App Store Essentials” and “Best Apps of the Year” solidifies its position in the online language learning community in China. In July 2017, Liulishuo closed a Series C round of funding of over $100 million, led by prominent investors including IDG Capital, Trustbridge Partners, GGV Capital, CMC Capital Partners, Cherubic Ventures, Wu Capital, and Hearst Ventures. This successful funding round reflects the positive investor sentiment and the potential for growth in the AI education sector. The company is actively seeking to attract top talent and partners as it continues to expand. For more information, individuals can visit https://www.liulishuo.com/jobs.html.
