ParentSquare Named to the 2025 GSV 150: The Top Transformational Growth Companies in Digital Learning & Skills

This marks second year in a row that ParentSquare is named to the list

SANTA BARBARA, CA—Dec. 17, 2024—ParentSquare, the award-winning unified school-home engagement platform for K-12 education, has been named to the highly-anticipated 2025 edition of the GSV 150: GSV’s annual list of the top 150 private companies transforming digital learning and workforce skills. 

To select the GSV 150, GSV evaluated 2,500+ global companies across five key factors: revenue scale, revenue growth, user reach, geographic diversification, and margin profile. The 2025 cohort of the GSV 150 collectively reaches 3 billion learners and generates over $25 billion in annual revenue.

“Being recognized as one of the world’s most transformational growth companies in digital learning and workforce upskilling highlights our commitment to innovating school-home communication,” says ParentSquare President and Founder Anupama Vaid. “This year, we introduced AI-powered tools like an alt text generator to support our users’ ADA/OCR compliance efforts and Post Rewrite to make it faster and easier to create clear, concise, and translatable posts. Educators have so many responsibilities, and our goal is to make their jobs easier while upholding the highest standards of privacy and security.” 

“The rapid rise of generative AI is fueling knowledge and creating opportunities we had not imagined before,” says Luben Pampoulov, Partner at GSV Ventures. “Multi-modality is making education more engaging, AI tools are driving personalization and productivity, and learning is happening at the speed of light. Effectively everyone across the 2025 GSV 150 has generative AI deeply embedded in their offering.”

Of the 2025 GSV 150, 58% are based in the US; 4% are based in Canada; 11% are India-based; 15% are Europe-based; and, notably, after two years’ absence, Chinese EdTech companies are back on the list. A meaningful shift towards profitability is evident throughout, with the estimated EBITDA score of the 2025 cohort up 21% versus last year.
