- Classover landed at number 122 out of 250 on TIME and Statista’s 2026 U.S. edtech ranking, according to the company.
- BlackRock reported holding 87,463 Class B shares—amounting to 8.0% of that class—according to a Schedule 13G filing.
- KIDZ hovered around $1.08 early Tuesday, up from a $0.97 finish the previous day, according to market data.
Classover Holdings shares popped Tuesday, drawing brisk volume, after BlackRock revealed an 8% Class B stake. The AI education company also landed on TIME’s 2026 U.S. edtech list. KIDZ was trading at $1.08 late morning, according to Investing.com, up from $0.97 at the previous close. Robinhood’s data showed volume surging to 32.54 million shares, far above the 5.73 million average.
It’s notable since Classover, a micro-cap focused on AI tutoring, robotics, and live online classes, rarely grabs headlines. The shares shifted as traders weighed a new ownership disclosure alongside news that Classover landed on a ranking typically topped by much bigger edtech firms like Duolingo and Coursera.
TIME’s 2026 list, put together with Statista, scored 250 U.S. edtech firms for financial muscle and impact in the sector. Duolingo landed the top spot, with Coursera right behind, highlighting the big names Classover wants to compete with as AI tools carve out more space both in classrooms and at home.
Classover reported it landed the 122nd spot in a Statista survey that covered over 2,500 firms. CEO Stephanie Luo pointed to the ranking as proof their move into “embodied AI”—that’s artificial intelligence embedded in machines like robots, not just apps—was paying off. ACCESS Newswire
BlackRock’s name popped up as a fresh spark. According to a Schedule 13G filed with regulators, the firm held 87,463 Class B shares—amounting to 8.0% of that class. BlackRock reported it had sole authority to vote and dispose of those shares. The filing also made clear: the firm isn’t holding these securities to alter or sway control at Classover.
Classover is touting artificial intelligence as its edge, promising faster, more efficient lesson creation and delivery. According to the company, Tutor Studio taps AI agents—software tools that handle tasks on their own—to help build out courses. It also claims to have logged over 450,000 hours of live teaching in small-group settings, with topics ranging from coding and math to art and languages.
Operating scale remains limited by public-market measures. For 2025, Classover posted service revenue of $3.37 million, holding steady from 2024. Net loss widened to $7.04 million. By year-end, the company counted 72,850 registered users and 1,200 educator partners.
The company’s efforts to hold onto its Nasdaq listing got a boost. As of a March 31 filing, Classover was back in line with Nasdaq’s $1 minimum bid rule—previously, the stock had slipped under that mark for 30 consecutive trading days, triggering a warning.
The risks are still front and center. In its April 22 prospectus, Classover flagged that selling registered shares could put serious pressure on its public trading price, potentially jeopardizing compliance with Nasdaq’s minimum-bid rule. The same filing pointed to possible impacts on both financial results and share price from exposure to Solana—after picking up 58,601 SOL tokens for roughly $7.3 million as of Dec. 31, 2025.
Right now, the trade is all about a thinly traded edtech stock, plenty of AI buzz, a new institutional filing, plus a mention on a big-name list. Sustained investor interest? That’s going to hinge on execution, revenue numbers, and whether Classover manages to stay above listing thresholds—ideally without resorting to major dilution.
