Putting an End with Cash and AI.

── A Next-Generation Educational Model That Defies Taboos

The Global Reality and Limits

While global education aid amounting to $15–$19 billion annually has improved school enrollment rates, 53% of 10-year-olds remain trapped in "learning poverty" unable to read a simple short sentence (World Bank). Traditional cash transfer models face a common limit: "they increase attendance, but fail to improve academic performance."

The Reality in Cambodia

We chose Cambodia as our first field of proof.

Enough Funding Is Already Flowing to Save Every Target Child

The annual inflow of $200–$250 million in educational aid to Cambodia is more than enough to directly distribute $40–$50 per month to all children in the poorest segment (approx. 400,000 to 500,000 students) and fully fund their educational opportunities.

30 Years of Stagnation

Although school enrollment rates exceeded 90% following three decades of support since the 1990s, the majority of funds vanish into intermediate costs. Consequently, 90% of upper-grade students cannot read basic sentences (90% learning poverty rate), and half of rural children drop out for child labor paying $1–$2 a day.

Our Approach: Overcoming the 3 Bottlenecks through a Social Experiment

Building on the proven "immediate motivational impact of cash transfers" demonstrated by GiveDirectly and the UN, we deploy an experimental approach that clears all three walls of existing models:

  • ① The Cash Delivery Bottleneck: Cambodia’s Extraordinary Digital Ecosystem

    Leveraging national QR payment infrastructure (such as Bakong) that has deeply penetrated local street vendors and mom-and-pop shops, we completely eliminate physical cash transport and intermediaries, directly disbursing funds into children's digital wallets.

  • ② The Learning Performance Bottleneck: Enforced Understanding via AI Private Tutors

    Rejecting empty handouts and formalism, we build a mechanism where rewards are unlocked only when children truly understand and solve problems independently through dialogue with an AI private tutor. By directly valuing learning (immediate reflection of up to $1 per day), we offset the opportunity cost of child labor while firmly establishing foundational academic skills.

  • ③ The Transparency Bottleneck: Real-Time Public Disclosure of All Logs

    Slicing away intermediate overhead, we deliver 85% of the capital directly into the hands of the children, fully visualizing and publicly disclosing all learning and payment logs through real-time data.
