Raising Superstars has launched Prodigy Pathway, an AI-powered, in-home preschool programme for children aged 0–6, aimed at addressing gaps in early childhood education in India.

The programme combines certified educators, a proprietary curriculum and AI-driven personalisation to deliver structured learning within the home environment. According to the company, the model avoids the use of screens, testing and classroom-based constraints, focusing instead on process-led development.

The launch comes amid concerns that formal education in India typically begins after the most critical stages of brain development. Research cited by the company indicates that 75 per cent of brain development occurs by age two and 90 per cent by age six, while early learning receives only a small share of overall education funding.

Prodigy Pathway seeks to address limitations in existing options such as playschools, online learning and physical centres, which often face challenges around curriculum consistency, screen exposure and scalability of personalised instruction.

Under the model, trained Prodigy Coaches conduct 45–60 minute sessions at home, supported by an AI system that adapts lesson plans to a child’s developmental stage while maintaining alignment with a structured curriculum.

The programme has been piloted in Mumbai, where the company reports significant growth over a seven-month period with limited enrolment capacity. Raising Superstars also plans to recruit and train over 2,000 women as Prodigy Coaches across more than 15 cities.

“The first six years of a child’s life are the most important of their entire existence and we’ve been leaving them to chance. Prodigy Pathway changes that,” said Raghav Himatsingka, Co-founder and CEO of Raising Superstars.

The company plans to expand the programme to more than 15 cities, targeting over 18,000 children and more than one million sessions annually within three years.
