Let's Build the Impossible
At Erandi Aprende, we work to close the gender gap in STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) in Mexico and Hispanic communities in the United States by empowering girls to lead in these crucial fields. Beyond gender-specific solutions, we seek to transform STEAM education (which includes art) by using artificial intelligence to provide personalized learning experiences that foster creativity, critical thinking, and inclusion. We ensure that we harness the unique perspectives and talents of all minds, regardless of gender, to shape a brighter future for everyone. A spark of curiosity is all we need to mark the great journey girls have ahead in these areas.
Solution
We tackle these challenges by focusing on eliminating gender biases since childhood. According to UNESCO [3], by third grade, 9 out of 10 girls associate science and technology skills as masculine skills. Our mission is rooted in using technology for social impact, nurturing the unique interests of girls and boys, and preserving the “spark” of curiosity and creativity that defines childhood.
Erandi Aprende is a bilingual, AI-driven app that serves as a STEAM learning companion for boldly curious girls. We stand out for offering personalized learning experiences through conversations guided by our avatar and AI, Erandi*, and the development of projects, integrating the arts to foster creativity and socio-emotional development.

*Erandi is a name of Purépecha origin (one of the largest indigenous communities in Mexico) that means awakening or dawn. Erandi represents an awakening of women in science and technology.
