INTERSECT VENTURES
We create software products that combine human and machine intelligence.
What we do
We develop, build and grow software products strongly backed by scientific advancements in harnessing the human intelligence together with machine intelligence. We aim at generating revenue from our R&D project within 18 months.
The intersection
We believe that the intersection of human and machine intelligence can solve existing and emerging problems. That's why we combine the power of the crowd and the power of algorithms.
Our vision is to empower the world with the power of collective intelligence.
New companies are emerging at the intersection of machine and collective human intelligence; funding in this sector has multiplied nearly ninefold from $1.7B in 2013 to $15.2B in 2017.
Portfolio
We leverage new technologies and innovation to accelerate convergence across industries. Our commitment is to build projects and technologies that explore these opportunities. Each project that originates a software product is gradually activated and will seek market traction. Some projects will not get that far.

TutoreanTutorean is an Edtech marketplace addressing a broken education model designed for a non-existent average student. The value proposition includes a student profile diagnosis, a match with an ideal tutor to maximize the learning intake, and a personalized learning experience.
Experiments
Our innovation process is focused on experimentation to validate key business assumptions. Most of these experiments are short-lived. However, some will grow into becoming micro-sites and prototypes, eventually evolving to fully feature software products. Below are some experiments that helped us develop our core IP that we continously refine and update to suit market needs and opportunities.
Our Development Stack
Our tech stack keeps evolving with each experiment and new venture. We pick the right tech for the job while considering the reusability of the assets. We also foster a stack that connects Science, Growth and Engineering.
