iLearningEngines, Inc. (“iLearningEngines”, “iLE”, or “the
Company”), a leader in AI-powered learning automation and
information intelligence for corporate and educational use, is
pleased to announce the completion of its business combination with
Arrowroot Acquisition Corp. (formerly NASDAQ: ARRW, ARRWU, ARRWW)
(“Arrowroot”). The combined company’s common stock and warrants are
expected to commence trading on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the
ticker symbol “AILE” and “AILEW”, respectively, on April 17, 2024.
iLearningEngines is an out-of-the-box AI
platform that empowers its enterprise and education customers to
“productize” their institutional knowledge, improve efficiency, and
drive better, mission-critical, business outcomes. The Company
operates at the intersection of three large and growing markets:
global artificial intelligence, global e-learning and
hyperautomation. According to Gartner, the AI software market
opportunity is expected to grow at 24.5% CAGR, reaching nearly $135
billion by 2025; global e-Learning market is expected to reach $250
billion in the same timeframe. The hyperautomation market is
expected to grow at an 11.9% CAGR to more than $1 trillion by
20261. iLearningEngines’ solutions are deployed within more than a
dozen industry verticals across approximately 1,000 enterprise end
customers and four million licensed users, and the Company sees
significant expansion opportunities within both new and existing
verticals and customers.
iLearningEngines’ differentiation with customers
is rooted in its proprietary AI technology and specialized data
sets. First, the Company builds a secure Knowledge Cloud - an
enterprise “brain” made up of specialized datasets - within a
customers’ data environment. Then, iLE employs its no code AI
canvas, enabling rapid integration without custom programming. This
enables iLE’s cognitive AI engine to generate insights, events, and
recommendations across many use cases. Employees use these valuable
insights to close knowledge gaps, automate workflows, and improve
business outcomes. The Company grew revenue 35% year-over-year
through the first nine months of 2023, and intends to disclose
fourth quarter and full year 2023 financial results within the next
week.
“Going public is an important milestone along
our business’s growth trajectory,” said iLearningEngines CEO Harish
Chidambaran. “We are pleased to add Arrowroot’s former President
and CFO Thomas Olivier to our Board of Directors and look forward
to continuing to leverage Arrowroot Capital’s enterprise software
expertise as we execute our long-term growth strategy.”
“We are thrilled to be iLearningEngines’
long-term partner,” said former Arrowroot Acquisition Corp.’s CEO
Matt Safaii. “iLearningEngines is a unique business and attractive
asset: a pure-play AI software company at scale with strong revenue
growth and emerging profitability. Of the more than 2,300 publicly
traded software companies globally in 2023, only 17 could boast
more than $400 million of annual revenue and a greater than 30%
revenue growth rate in 2023.2 iLearningEngines is now in that
exclusive group.”
