ABOUT US
Grockit's mission is to abolish Education and replace it with Learning.
To this end, we aim to utilize the awesome power of the internet to help the world learn. We've been alpha testing Live Online Classes, but now, we've locked ourselves in a room with whiteboard walls to develop our MMOLG (Massive Multi-Player Online Learning Game).
We recently closed our Series A financing with Benchmark Capital and some great angels like Reid Hoffman (LinkedIn), Rob Lord (Songbird) and Mark Pincus (Tribe).
