HyperionDev

Status: Active

Feb 4th 2021 - Feb 23rd 2021

HyperionDev teaches people to code through online courses overseen by top code reviewers. It asserts that its core innovation was efficiently connecting top students to struggling ones having them review code on structured courses. This led to HyperionDev being financially backed by technology giants Facebook and Google in 2016/17 helping the company scale its computer-assisted code review process. HyperionDev has registered over 150,000 students and onboarded clients like Lambda School and Makers. The company reached profitability in 2020 earning £1 million in revenue and more than 250% user growth. It will use the investment to commercialise its model in the $300 billion tech education and assessments market and close the tech skills gap.
