Meet our Demo Day winners! 🏆

🥇 Scroll Block — turns scroll time into a reward, blocking apps like TikTok until you study AI flashcards and pass a quiz to earn it back.

Swipe through to see our boys owning the stage at SCLA Demo Day. Missing this energy already, the nerves right before presenting, the pride after nailing a pitch, the whole squad cheering each other on. Can’t wait to do it all again next year💙

Straight outta South Central, into Silicon Valley🚀
This week, our teens walked the same halls where the apps on their phones were born. They asked questions, took notes, and saw firsthand that the future of tech has room for them too. These are our future founders, engineers, and innovators and this is just the beginning.

South Central to Silicon Valley. Our boys stood in the halls of Google today and saw exactly where their future could take them🚀
