Hi, we’re Alice.

We’re building the AI tutor every student deserves. Born in Copenhagen, used by more than 250,000 students around the world.

Our story

Everyone learns differently. Education still teaches one way.

The traditional education system doesn’t meet students where they are. Some need structure, some need motivation, most need a little of both, and almost everyone studies with more stress than they should.

That’s why Kim Rants founded Alice in 2024. What started as a fix for a broken study routine became Denmark’s 15th Y Combinator company, raised over $6M, and grew into a team obsessed with one thing: giving students structure, motivation and calmer semesters.

Our values

What we believe in

  1. Studying doesn’t have to suck

    The traditional system gave learning a bad reputation. Done right, it’s one of the most engaging things you can do, and Alice exists to prove it.

  2. Progress over perfection

    We move fast, learn from every mistake and keep moving forward. We run the company on the same idea we teach students.

  3. Students first, always

    Alice is built with students, for students. Every feature starts from a real need in a real semester, not from a roadmap.

  4. Clarity is key

    Complex learning deserves simple tools. If a screen, a plan or a sentence can be simpler, it should be. Clarity is focus.
