TinyTap — Cyborg Score 7/10

Strong
Educational games and interactive learning platforms

Strategic Profile

Founded in 2012 by Oren Elbaz in Tel Aviv, Israel, TinyTap has built a community-driven platform that monetizes educator-created content. The code-free platform empowers educators to create and share interactive educational content and receive a revenue share when that content is used by learners. TinyTap's mission is to reduce dependency on traditional education by creating a decentralized system owned and operated by the community, where tokenizing the learning process enables educators to own their content and unlock new earning opportunities.

Cyborg Score Rationale

TinyTap has raised a total of $28.5M across 5 funding rounds. The company is among the top 10 grossing kids apps worldwide, with 9.2 million registered users with content created by over 100,000 creators. As of April 30, 2026, the company has 33 employees. Strong market traction and backing from Animoca Brands provides strategic support, though the smaller headcount limits operational scale.
