What HENRY does

Henry (HENRY EDUCACION S.A.) is a Buenos Aires-headquartered edtech company founded in 2020 that operates an online, income-contingent tech education platform targeting career switchers and working professionals across Latin America. The company delivers five core career tracks — Full Stack Development, Data Science, Data Engineering, AI Automation, and AI Engineering — delivered online and live with 100% remote enrollment across six countries (Argentina, Colombia, Mexico, Peru, Chile, Brazil). The platform's proprietary technology includes an AI Agent that personalizes each student's learning journey, an AI-enhanced curriculum, and supporting mobile and web applications (app.soyhenry.com). Henry operates a three-sided platform: prospective students apply through a selective admissions process (top 3% acceptance), access 800+ hours of project-based instruction, and progress through free introductory courses before paid programs; graduates enter a talent database connecting them with 3,000+ hiring companies including Google, Mercado Libre, PayPal, Accenture, Globant, and JP Morgan; and companies access the talent pipeline via talent.soyhenry.com and the Henry Projects internship channel for unpaid project-based engagements.

Henry's business model centers on the Acuerdo de Ingresos Compartidos (AIC), an income-share agreement in which students pay approximately 10% of tuition while studying and the remainder only after securing employment, with the balance subject to a defined payment period. Alternative payment structures include upfront lump-sum payments (with promotional discounts) and installment plans. A 100% money-back guarantee applies to selected programs if graduates do not find employment within one year of active job search, aligning Henry's revenue directly with graduate outcomes. The company monetizes exclusively through student tuition — employer hiring is free — which structurally inverts typical two-sided marketplace economics but reduces friction on the demand side of the talent funnel. The company has raised approximately $11.8 million across three funding rounds (2020-2022), is Y Combinator-backed, and currently employs 51-100 staff.

Revenue model

1. Shared Income Agreement (Acuerdo de Ingresos Compartidos - AIC): Students pay 0 upfront during their program. After graduating and securing employment, they pay a percentage of their income for a defined period. This aligns Henry's incentives with student outcomes — the company only earns when the student earns.
2. Upfront / Installment Payment Options: Students can choose to pay the full tuition in one lump sum with benefits, or in installment plans, providing an alternative to the income-contingent model.
