Khalid W. Abou Kassem, AlGooru Founder & CEO
AlGooru, Saudi Arabia’s first licensed private tutoring platform, has successfully raised $4 million in pre-Series A funding through a combination of debt and equity financing. The round was led by Constructor Capital, with participation from Hub71, angel investors, and family offices.
This latest investment builds on AlGooru’s earlier $1.8 million Seed round and positions the company to further cement its leadership in Saudi Arabia’s tutoring sector. The funds will be allocated to expanding AlGooru’s operations in the Kingdom (with a focus on offline tutoring), advancing its AI-driven technologies, and entering new verticals through strategic partnerships set to be announced in 2025. By enhancing its technology-powered platform and diversifying its subject offerings, AlGooru is poised to drive regional growth and redefine the tutoring landscape in Saudi Arabia and beyond.
This latest funding reflects AlGooru’s steady growth trajectory since its 2021 launch. AlGooru’s platform offers safe, convenient, and modernised tutoring across 20 core subjects, including math, science, language development, and foundational skills, making it accessible to students of all ages and educational levels.
"The continued support from our investors is a testament to the impact AlGooru is making in transforming tutoring in Saudi Arabia,” said Khalid Abou Kassem, Founder and CEO of AlGooru. “We are excited to deepen our reach in the region, utilising this funding to build a platform that makes high-quality education accessible, safe, and impactful,” added Omer Awad, co-founder and COO of AlGooru.

Constructor Capital, the Singapore-based VC leading the round, made its first capital investment in the MENA region and Saudi Arabia through AlGooru. Matthias Winter, Managing Partner at Constructor Capital, emphasised the company’s uniqueness: “We believe in AlGooru’s mission to make good education accessible through innovation and technology. We recognise the potential that exists in the Kingdom and are looking to lend our support and expertise to Khalid and the AlGooru team to achieve their goals." Constructor Capital’s fund’s primary focus is to assist visionary founders in building ground-breaking solutions that will drive real-world change across three vital sectors, namely enterprise software, deeptech, and edtech.
In addition to its broad subject range, AlGooru has distinguished itself as Saudi Arabia’s first licensed tutoring platform, aligning with government regulations to provide a secure experience for families. With this funding, AlGooru will expand its AI and data-driven capabilities, providing tailored learning experiences to meet the evolving needs of students. The funds will also enable the platform to recruit top talent in edtech, fostering product innovation to meet the demand for flexible, tech-enabled tutoring solutions.
“Our vision at AlGooru is to reshape how students in Saudi Arabia access quality education, providing not only a seamless connection to qualified tutors but also aligning with national goals to enhance educational accessibility,” said Muhanad Aljaser, Co-Founder of AlGooru. “With this new funding, we’re able to expand partnerships that uphold these values, ensuring that students across all educational levels are well-supported in building a strong academic foundation.”
