Osmo

Creates interactive educational play experiences for children

About

Osmo creates educational and interactive play experiences for children, focusing on the early learning and elementary school age groups. The company offers a play system that combines physical play pieces with digital apps, allowing children to engage in hands-on learning while using screens in a productive way. This approach promotes what Osmo calls "healthy screen time," where digital devices are used to enhance learning rather than for passive entertainment. Osmo sells various products, including starter kits, expansion packs, and games that cover subjects like math, spelling, coding, and creativity. They also provide subscription services for additional content. Revenue comes from direct sales on their website and partnerships with retailers and educational institutions. Osmo differentiates itself through its community-driven approach, engaging with influencers and educators to promote its brand and mission, which helps build loyalty and expand its reach.
