Different goals.
Your next move.
A business of your own. A career that takes you further. Pick a story and see what moving forward with Kairo could look like.
Two stories. Six ways to move forward.
The goal is yours.- Start a business

- Creative skills
02 / THE PROBLEM WE SOLVE
The answers are now everywhere.
Keeping the goal moving is still on you.
Courses, videos, podcasts and AI assistants can all be useful. But you still have to maintain the plan, connect the learning to action and decide when to come back. When life gets in the way, you’re left to restart alone.
Kairo stays involved in the goal. It helps you take the next step and brings you back when progress stops.
Entrepreneurship
The almost-founder still researching. The owner working harder without the business moving forward.
Important goals need support that stays with you.

Moving towards proof.

05 / THE FOUNDER
A new chapter.
An experienced foundation.
Scott Newton Founder & CEO · Ambition
After nearly 11 years helping build and lead Upskillist, Scott is building Ambition around one belief: learning only matters when it helps someone move forward.
Kairo puts that experience to work around the person, their goal and what comes next.
Meet Scott06 / CONTEXT FOR THE ROUND
The investor detail.
Who is Kairo for?
Our initial focus is professional development and entrepreneurship: important goals that require learning, decisions and action over time. Personal and creative goals are also supported. Individuals first, with employers and public-sector programmes as longer-term opportunities.
What do the films show?
The experience we’re building towards. They are product stories, not customer testimonials. The web prototype is live. Native mobile and the stronger proactive return loop are next-stage work.
What does this round fund?
Team runway, native mobile and the proactive mentor experience. The work is to prove repeat engagement and paid retention, then scale acquisition as the customer economics support it.
How does Upskillist fit into the story?
Ambition grows out of the Upskillist business and its accumulated learning content, operating experience and audience. That history is a foundation, not Kairo traction. Kairo’s own commercial evidence is early.
UK investors: what is the EIS position?
Our Enterprise Investment Scheme (EIS) Advance Assurance application is underway, subject to HMRC confirmation. We’ll share the current position and relevant documentation during investor discussions. Tax relief depends on the company, investment and individual investor meeting the conditions.

Irish investors: what is the EII / EIIS position?
Our Irish investment route is the Employment Investment Incentive (EII), also known as EIIS. We’ll confirm the company’s eligibility and final investment structure with our advisers and share the relevant documentation. Revenue scheme guidance ↗
What happens if I’m interested?
