Genio creates beautifully simple learning tools that boost knowledge, skills and confidence. We help learners overcome challenges, by creating an environment in which they are equipped, empowered and encouraged to succeed from day one. ## Today's learners face more challenges than ever We all know learning unlocks opportunity. But too little attention is paid to helping individuals become better learners, and most are left to figure it out on their own. When students do not believe they are capable, or when the process feels overwhelming, they disengage. That leads to worse academic performance, which erodes confidence, and creates a sense that learning is not for them. **We call this the disengagement cycle**, and we’re here to break it. ![Image 25: Genio illustrations_struggling for time GRAD](https://genio.co/hubfs/Genio%20illustrations_struggling%20for%20time%20GRAD.png) #### Our mission is to unlock better learning for everyone ![Image 26: ICON-lock and key](https://genio.co/hubfs/ICON-lock%20and%20key.png) ## Our history **Genio’s story began over 15 years ago with the launch of our first audio-based note taking tool for neurodiverse learners.** Our founder, Dave Tucker, has spent his working life exploring how technology can be used to tackle learning challenges and expand what’s possible for every learner. In developing our first product for neurodiverse students, he worked closely with learners who were being left behind because they couldn’t keep up in lectures. In 2020, we launched Glean Notes, a new note taking product designed from the ground up. It has now supported over 160,000 students across more than 1,000 institutions worldwide. But note taking was just the start. With Genio, we’re applying everything we’ve learned to a broader range of opportunities to increase learning success. ![Image 27: Genio UI promo images all apps-11](https://genio.co/hubfs/Genio%20UI%20promo%20images%20all%20apps-11.png) ## Genio supports over 160,000 learners across 1,000 institutions globally Our structured approach, rooted in learning science, aims to create a world where every person has the tools and confidence to expand what’s possible through learning. 76% #### of Genio users improve their grades in just one semester 88% #### find learning less stressful using Genio tools 95% #### of learner believe their learning skills improved by using Genio tools ## Our approach Our goal is simple. We want to help more students succeed by helping them learn better. Not through shortcuts, but through experiences and products that help students become more confident and effective learners. ## 1. Equip the right tools to unlock progress By providing the right tools & technology to help students with their personal learning process, institutions make learning more accessible for all. ![Image 28: toolbox](https://genio.co/hubfs/toolbox.png) ![Image 29: rosette](https://genio.co/hubfs/rosette.png) ## 2. Empower with learning skills to become more effective and efficient learners Learning how to learn can expand what’s possible. By starting with early, proactive engagement and personalised support plans, institutions can directly help learners to develop their study skills. ## 3. Encourage confidence, agency and enjoyment to build lifelong learners Learning is social and we’re motivated when we learn with and from others. We thrive when we take control of our learning and find our own reasons to keep going. ![Image 30: ICON-map](https://genio.co/hubfs/ICON-map.png) ![Image 31: 1 for the City logo](https://genio.co/hubfs/Logo-Dusk.png) ## A proud member of One for the City We love Leeds, the home of Genio HQ.
