Company profile
researched Aug 2026Quipper is an online education provider founded in London in 2010 that describes its mission as a "distribution revolution of knowledge," enabling learners to study regardless of national borders or income level [0]. Its operations span Japan, Indonesia and the Philippines [0], and coverage from 2016 described service deployment across nine countries with hubs in Asia, Europe and Central America, with Indonesia, the Philippines and Mexico as focus markets [5].
The product line has two main pillars. Quipper School is a learning management system that moves teacher workflows — distributing lessons and homework, marking, and tracking grades and progress — online, while students study on their own phones or PCs at any time or place [3][5]. Quipper Video, launched in Indonesia in August 2015, offers localized recorded lessons built on know-how from Recruit's Studysapuri service, covering five subjects (English, mathematics, Indonesian, science and social studies) across ten courses [5]. The company has also developed a quiz-format mobile learning app for Android and iOS, and GAKUMO, a smartphone study service for junior and senior high school students offering roughly 15-minute question-and-answer sets by grade and subject curriculum, provided jointly with KDDI [3].
The UK entity, QUIPPER LIMITED, was incorporated on 17 December 2010 under the name QUIPACK TECHNOLOGIES LIMITED, renamed on 28 February 2011, and is registered under SIC codes for other telecommunications activities, other IT services and educational support services [1]. Recruit Holdings Co., Ltd. is recorded as a person with significant control [7]. The company entered liquidation, with its registered office listed care of Interpath Ltd in London [1].
