A gamified financial-literacy platform where middle and high schoolers learn money by doing: trading a live market, running a business and filing real paperwork, all with virtual coins.
InvestiPlay was founded by two high school students who recognized a gap in traditional education. They built the platform they never had, one that teaches real financial skills through real experience.
Students move through a ten-level curriculum of short lessons taught by Jeff, our mascot and AI tutor. Every lesson they master unlocks something real to do with it: the stock market, The Lab, their own micro-business, the bank.
He teaches every lesson, cheers every streak, and knows exactly which concept a student is stuck on.
Each mode is its own game loop with real depth: weekly cycles, rank ladders and written reflections, so the learning holds long after class ends.
Jeff teaches every lesson in short, interactive exchanges with scenarios, reflections and adaptive practice. Finish a mission, earn XP and coins, and unlock the next piece of the economy.
Students build a portfolio from actual market data, track P&L over weeks, and learn what volatility feels like before it ever costs them anything.
W-4s, I-9s, direct-deposit forms and W-2s, completed in a safe sandbox with instant checking. The first time they see these forms should not be their first day of work.
Hire, price, market and survive random events across a weekly loop with procedural content and a class rank ladder. Written reflections turn every decision into a lesson.
Watch compound interest work in The Vault, borrow and build credit at the Lending Desk, trade bonds, then unlock the Executive Floor with persistent career simulations in venture capital, private equity, wealth management and investment banking.
Run live checkpoints mid-lecture and watch the answer distribution on your screen. A class mastery view surfaces the weakest concepts before the test, and assignments push by block with a due date.
From the psychology of money to a ten-year financial plan. Students unlock each level by proving mastery of the last. Tap a level to explore it.
InvestiPlay began in our own high school classrooms, where we saw how little students are taught about managing money. We set out to close that gap by designing the curriculum, building the games and writing the code ourselves. Today we continue to improve the platform every week, guided by feedback from the teachers and students who use it.

Milestones and recognition InvestiPlay has earned so far.
Our pilot program drops into an existing course without replacing the teacher. Students do a five-minute primer before class, answer live checkpoints during it, and practice after. You get data you don't have today.
Class code, rosters, and your chapters mapped to levels.
Primers, checkpoints and practice, with a weekly founder check-in.
Mastery report for every student and a decision on what's next.
We piloted InvestiPlay with middle schoolers at Gulliver Preparatory. Students did primers at home, answered live checkpoints in class, and ran the market and business sims between lessons. At the end we asked them what they thought.
