046 - Irina Fine & Ian Freed - Bamboo Learning: Building an EdTech Business on Voice Assistant Platforms

Guests: Irina Fine & Ian Freed - cofounders of Bamboo Learning

Topic: Building an EdTech Business for Alexa and Google Assistant

Irina and Ian join Dave on the podcast this week to share what it's been like building a business built specifically for Alexa & Google Assistant-enabled devices. Their company, Bamboo Learning, is designed to offer children an immersive learning experience, with a suite of skills and actions that provide educational problems to solve for Math, Literature, English, History and Music. 

The two fill Dave in on recent updates to the company's offering, including a new SaaS "freemium" offering, as well as sharing the lessons they've learned from building on these new platforms. This conversation is a barometer for the health of the voice tech ecosystem, and lends itself to the idea that there are viable businesses that can be built within these emerging ecosystems.
