Remind (previously Remind101) is a private mobile messaging platform used for communication between teachers, parents, and students in K–12 schools.[1]

History

Remind101 was founded in 2011 by brothers Brett and David Kopf.[2] The platform was based on a prototype messaging system developed by David to help Brett, who was diagnosed with attention deficit disorder and dyslexia, to keep track of tests while attending Michigan State University.[3][4] The two decided to found a company based on the messaging platform, and it became part of the first class at the Imagine K12 incubator in Palo Alto, California.[5]

In 2014, the company added John Doerr, a venture capitalist at Kleiner Perkins, to its board.[6] As of 2014, the company had raised $59 million in funding,[7] and had over 20 million monthly active users across the United States.[8] On June 16, 2014, the company renamed Remind101 to Remind.[9]

In 2016, Brian Grey, former CEO of Bleacher Report, became CEO of Remind.[10]

As of September 2016, the platform was used in more than 50% of the public schools in the U.S.[11][3]

Remind was purchased by ParentSquare in November 2023. Both companies' platforms and executive staff were merged. Existing Remind products kept their names.[12]
