Public education faces structural challenges, as highlighted by the 2025 Brazilian Basic Education Yearbook, the School Census, and the 2024 Child Literacy Index (ICA). Teacher overload is intensified by limited access to continuous professional development (only 35%). Learning gaps and dropout remain critical: 15% of youth aged 15–17 are out of school, 20% of high school students face age–grade distortion, and 40% of children struggle with literacy. Only 25% of schools use technology to monitor performance, and institutional resilience remains limited in the face of emergencies and leadership transitions.
AprendiZAP transforms the public education ecosystem by integrating artificial intelligence to optimize workflows and decision-making. AprendiZAP is a free platform. Teachers automate tasks such as planning, grading, and diagnostics, enabling more precise and personalized instruction. School leaders and Education Departments use the platform to monitor real-time indicators, identify priority challenges, and drive effective interventions. The project also fosters a strong data culture, ensuring evidence-based decisions, reducing inequalities, and documenting public policies to ensure continuity across government transitions. AprendiZAP strengthens education systems by aligning strategies with the real needs of schools and students.
The 1bi Foundation has successfully scaled AprendiZAP by leveraging a combination of strategic outreach and partnerships. Since 2019, the initiative has reached 6.5 million individuals within the school community, demonstrating its broad impact. In 2025, the foundation impacted over 1 million teachers and students through its tools.
The scaling strategy involves two primary approaches to introduce AprendiZAP to teachers and school leaders:
1. Promoted Ads (digital): These ads effectively highlight the platform's tools, increasing awareness and engagement.
2. Partnerships with Public Schools: Collaborations with public schools have been instrumental in driving adoption and usage.
Additionally, the foundation has worked directly with 10 schools across three different states, in 2025, further solidifying its presence and impact within the educational ecosystem. This multi-faceted approach has enabled the foundation to expand its reach and positively influence education at scale.
