The story of Preply

Each journey has its own unique story. And ours is one to share loud and proud (in every language, of course).

2012 - 2015

Ready, set, skyrocket 

Soon after its creation, Preply grows at a remarkable rate with 3,000 tutors in 58 countries. The Kyiv team grows to 15 Preplers and we graduate from Techstars Berlin.

2016 - 2018

Game changer

Preply raises a whopping $1.3M from investors like Techstars, SMRK VCDigital and Arthur Kosten. The team grows to 100 - that’s 7x growth in less than 3 years! 

2019 - 2021

Hola, Barcelona!

Preply opens a new office in sunny Barcelona and raises $10M from investors like Point Nine Capital and RTAventures. This is followed by another round of $35M from investors like Full In Partners and Inovo Venture.

2022

Unstoppable

Preply closes a round of $50M from investors like OWL Ventures, Diligent Capital and Hoxton Ventures, among others. Preply Business expands, bringing in companies like Unilever and Eventbrite.

2023

Practice makes possible

Preply raises an extension round of $70M led by Horizon Capital. A complete rebranding takes the new brand identity to another level, reinforcing, empowering and truly showcasing Preply’s vision to unlock human potential through language learning.
