What Siriusgame does

Sirius Game S.r.l. Società Benefit is an Italian EdTech company headquartered in Bressanone (South Tyrol) that builds a portfolio of Playful Learning products targeting K-12 schools, young adults, and corporate learners. Its product line comprises Joy (a primary-school learning ecosystem built on storytelling, digital exploration, and Project-Based Learning), Sirius (a secondary-school platform reimagining humanities — Italian, Latin, Ancient Greek, History, Philosophy, Art History — through mission-based journeys), Financial Literacy (a young-adult program covering budgeting, saving, digital payments, investing, and financial wellbeing, co-developed with Italian banking foundations), and Lumia (an AI Literacy professional-development product for businesses built on OECD-aligned frameworks covering critical thinking, bias detection, ethical reasoning, and responsible AI use). Underlying technology consists of web-based learning management systems, mobile applications, and interactive digital exploration tools hosted on app-sirius.it, joyesploravventure.it, and lumialearn.com, combined with the proprietary Multiple EdTech Impact Index (MEII) for outcome measurement.

The company operates a B2B sales-led go-to-market, with direct engagement of Italian school administrators and teachers for Joy, Sirius, and Financial Literacy, and an enterprise/professional sales motion for Lumia aimed at businesses globally. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed, with annual billing cadence. Revenue streams are structured as institutional subscription licenses for schools and as recurring corporate training subscriptions for Lumia, supplemented by foundation-funded Financial Literacy programs delivered via partnerships with FEduF and Fondazione Tertio Millennio. Distribution is augmented through a channel partnership with Gruppo Editoriale La Scuola and credibility is reinforced through research collaborations with Harvard Innovation Labs, NYU, University of Bolzano, University of Riga, and Göttingen University. To date the company reports 10,000+ students engaged and 100+ schools involved across Italy.

Direct peers

• Newsela: EdTech platform delivering instructional content (primarily reading/writing) to K-12 schools with a focus on engagement and differentiation. Comparable on B2B school subscription model and humanities-adjacent content delivery.
• Kahoot!: Public Norwegian edtech platform offering game-based learning tools for schools and corporate training. Direct comparable on game-based pedagogy and school/corporate dual GTM, though Kahoot operates at significantly larger scale and is more general-purpose than Sirius Game's humanities-focused approach.
• Prodigy Education: Canada-based game-based learning platform for K-12 math, sold via school subscriptions. Highly comparable B2B school subscription model, gamified content delivery, and primary/secondary school buyer profile, though focused on math rather than humanities.
• Duolingo: Public gamified language-learning platform with strong K-12 and consumer presence. Directly comparable to Sirius Game's gamified Latin/Ancient Greek learning missions and similar playful-learning pedagogical approach, though focused specifically on languages and at much greater scale.
• Tynker: K-12 game-based learning platform for coding and STEM, sold via school and consumer subscriptions. Comparable on playful learning design, K-12 school GTM, and subscription-based monetization, though content focus is coding rather than humanities.
• ClassDojo: Classroom communication and engagement platform used by K-12 teachers worldwide. Comparable on playful learning ethos and primary school adoption, though focused on classroom management rather than curriculum content.
• Brainly: Peer-to-peer learning platform serving K-12 students with homework help across subjects including humanities. Comparable on consumer/school hybrid model and humanities subject coverage, though crowdsourced rather than content-authored.
• DragonBox: Educational game studio behind award-winning math learning games (now part of Kahoot!). Closely comparable on game-based learning design for primary/secondary schools and playful pedagogy.

Broad incumbents

• Coursera: Public online learning platform with significant enterprise (Coursera for Business) and academic offerings. Direct comparable to Lumia on the enterprise AI training side, though operating at vastly larger scale and across all professional domains.
• Edmodo: Broad K-12 learning platform with classroom, content, and communication tools. Overlaps with Sirius Game on school GTM but operates as a broader incumbent platform rather than a humanities-focused content specialist.
