EDIA was founded in 2004 and is based in Amsterdam, The Netherlands. In 2006 EDIA launched its first AI in education product, which uses machine learning and natural language processing to automatically curate authentic texts for online vocabulary training. The product won several (international) awards and is still widely used today.

The founders of EDIA envisioned that smart automation would play a significant role in the content creation and publishing industry. As modern web technologies rapidly enabled personalized learning at scale, this also revealed an urgent need for truly adaptive content.
EDIA then developed its artificial intelligence engine created specifically for education publishers. It automates metadata-tagging so that content managers can search, curate, reuse and create smart content.
“AI has transformative power. We want the education industry to benefit from the technology the same way that other industries have”.
Currently, the company is owned and led by the original founders, Jaeques Koeman, CEO and Roland Groen, CTIO.
EDIA has a team of talented professionals who dedicate their time to work on AI.
With 16 years of experience with AI in education, EDIA now finds itself in a unique position to be able to share those experiences, lessons learned and the insights about AI in education with a broader audience.
