1. Technology overview
Manabie International Private Limited was founded in 2019 in Singapore and has operations in Japan, Vietnam and the Philippines (Quipper Philippines). It builds an all-in-one education platform that lets schools, cram schools and learning centres replace paper and spreadsheet administration and add AI-supported learning. Its stated goal is to reach 100 million learners by 2032.
The platform combines three modules that can be used separately or together: an ERP for recruitment, enrolment, grades, attendance and billing; an LMS for exercises, tests and videos with AI explanations, AI grading and real-time progress analytics; and an AI Tutor that explains questions step by step from a photo, 24 hours a day. In Vietnam, Manabie also offers the AISE AI curriculum for secondary schools with teacher training, and operations support for education centres.
2. Highlighted features & specifications
- School ERP: student recruitment, enrolment, grade and attendance management and billing.
