About Felix AI: Revolutionizing Education Through Agentic AI
Felix AI is a new venture in the EdTech space focused on leveraging Agentic AI technology to transform how students learn and engage with educational content. Unlike traditional AI applications, Agentic AI systems can:
- Operate autonomously to achieve specific goals
- Make decisions based on complex reasoning
- Adapt to individual student needs in real-time
- Navigate safety and regulatory requirements in education
Building such a platform requires not only cutting-edge technical expertise but also a deep understanding of the education sector’s unique challenges and compliance requirements.
The Challenge: Finding a Development Partner for Complex AI Innovation
What Ariel Was Looking For
When Ariel began his search for a development partner, he had specific requirements:
- Full-stack expertise across iOS development, AI/ML, and backend engineering
- Deep AI knowledge with experience in emerging technologies
- Proven track record in delivering complex projects
- Flexibility and quality focus to meet rigorous engineering standards
- Partnership mindset beyond simple task execution
Why Most Partnerships Fail
Many founders struggle to find development partners who truly understand their vision. Common pain points include:
- Developers who focus on tasks rather than outcomes
- Lack of expertise in cutting-edge technologies
- Poor communication and misaligned expectations
- Inability to scale teams quickly as projects evolve
- Limited understanding of industry-specific requirements (like EdTech regulations)
Ariel needed a partner who could navigate all these challenges while delivering a production-ready platform in record time.
Why Ariel Chose Kaopiz as His Development Partner
After evaluating multiple development firms, Kaopiz emerged as the clear choice. Here’s what impressed Ariel most:
1. Comprehensive Technical Skill Set
“First of all, the skill set that the company presented with all of its developers—anywhere from iOS development, AI with deep AI expertise, backend development—they had a full demonstrated skill set,” Ariel explains.
Kaopiz offered:
- iOS Development: Native mobile expertise for seamless user experiences
- AI/ML Engineering: Deep knowledge of machine learning frameworks and Agentic AI architectures
- Backend Development: Robust, scalable infrastructure to support complex AI operations
- Cross-functional collaboration: Teams that work together seamlessly across disciplines
2. Exceptional Work Ethic and Motivation
What truly set Kaopiz apart was the team’s approach to work:
“The team really came in motivated—not just performing the task, but actually finding out what the end goal was and trying to get a higher understanding of what we’re trying to accomplish here.”
This goal-oriented mindset meant:
- Proactive problem-solving rather than reactive development
- Strategic thinking about product direction
- Investment in understanding the EdTech landscape
- Genuine partnership rather than vendor relationships
3. Flexibility in Meeting High Standards
Every product has unique requirements and quality benchmarks. Ariel appreciated Kaopiz’s adaptability:
“The flexibility in terms of meeting my expectations in terms of both quality and engineering was very impressive to me. Every product team has a set of expectations, and the team here made the best effort in order to meet them.”
4. Ability to Tackle Cutting-Edge Technology
Agentic AI is an emerging field with few developers who have hands-on experience. Ariel needed a team that could:
- Learn and adapt quickly to new technologies
- Navigate uncharted territory in AI development
- Understand complex frameworks and distributed systems
- Implement safety and regulatory requirements
“This is a very new and innovative topic. Very few developers actually have experience with some of the platforms and actually developing a product like this. The team here took this challenge very seriously and has made very significant progress in a very short time.”
The Development Process: From Concept to Production
Phase 1: Understanding the Vision
The Kaopiz team didn’t just start coding—they invested time in understanding:
- Felix AI’s educational goals and target audience
- Safety requirements for student interactions
- Regulatory compliance needs in the EdTech sector
- The technical architecture of Agentic AI systems
- Long-term scalability requirements
Phase 2: Building the Core Platform
The development process involved:
Technical Complexity:
- Implementing Agentic distributed frameworks for autonomous AI decision-making
- Building safety guardrails to protect student users
- Creating intuitive iOS interfaces for seamless learning experiences
- Developing robust backend infrastructure to support AI operations
- Ensuring compliance with educational regulations and data privacy laws
Collaboration & Communication:
- Regular sprint planning and progress reviews
- Transparent communication about challenges and solutions
- Iterative development based on feedback
- Agile methodology adapted to AI development complexity
Phase 3: Quality Assurance and Optimization
Before production launch, the team focused on:
- Rigorous testing across devices and scenarios
- Performance optimization for real-time AI interactions
- Security audits and compliance verification
- User experience refinement based on testing feedback
Results: A Long-Term Partnership Built on Trust
Measurable Outcomes
While specific metrics are confidential, the partnership delivered:

Ariel’s Verdict
When asked to describe Kaopiz in a short phrase, Ariel’s answer was simple and powerful:
“A dependable partner.”
He elaborated: “I’ve chosen Kaopiz as a partner for the core development team. I found really talented people here that allow me to really trust them with this very core piece of the engineering that we’re doing.”
The Path Forward
The partnership doesn’t end at launch. Ariel sees Kaopiz as integral to Felix AI’s future:
“I see this as a long-term partnership. What I expect is the Kaopiz team would bring the application to production and then towards scaling up and expansion.”
Key Takeaways for EdTech Founders and Entrepreneurs
1. Look Beyond Technical Skills
While expertise matters, work ethic, motivation, and partnership mindset often determine success more than raw technical ability.
2. Prioritize Goal-Oriented Teams
Choose developers who ask “why” not just “how”—teams that understand your business objectives deliver better results.
3. Invest in Partner Evaluation
Ariel “carefully evaluated several possible partners” before choosing Kaopiz. This due diligence paid off exponentially.
4. Value Adaptability in Emerging Tech
For cutting-edge projects like Agentic AI, find partners who can learn quickly and navigate uncertainty rather than those who claim to know everything upfront.
5. Build for the Long Term
The best partnerships extend beyond initial launch to support scaling, expansion, and ongoing innovation.
