We don't teach kidsto use AI.We teach them tobuild it.
Where Curiosity Meets AI.
At the forefront of children's technology education since 2017. One of the first of its kind, and one of the most trusted names in the space. We didn't follow the trend. We set it.
Back in 2017, when most people thought coding education meant bootcamps for adults, we opened Hatch School of AI in Chennai. We were teaching kids to build chatbots, automate things, and think like creators and innovators. Long before it became mainstream.
01
AI literacy, not just coding
Children learn to understand how AI works, prompt it effectively, and build with it. Not just consume it. We have always been ahead of the curve, and we intend to stay there.
02
Every lesson ends with something real
No dry theory. No passive watching. Every session ends with a project the child can show someone. A game, a tool, a chatbot, a piece of digital art that is entirely theirs.
03
Skill-based, not age-based
Every child starts exactly where they are. Our AI tutors Ada and Cody guide without doing the work for them, building real confidence lesson by lesson.
The Real Outcomes
What your child walks away with.
Not just coding skills. The skills that last a lifetime and matter in every field, every career, every era.
Problem Solving
They learn to break any problem into steps and keep going when it gets hard.
Computational Thinking
They start seeing the world differently. Patterns, systems, cause and effect.
Creative Confidence
They stop waiting for permission to build things. They just build.
AI Fluency
They understand how AI works. Not just how to use it, but how to direct it.
Builder's Mindset
In a world full of users, they become the ones who make the things everyone else uses.

Step 03

Every project goes to the Hatch Gallery. A shareable link, a real product, something to be genuinely proud of. Parents see it. Friends can try it. It's theirs.

How It Works
Learning by doing.
Every Hatch lesson ends with a project your child built themselves. Something real they can share with the world.
Platform Features
Everything your child needs. Nothing they don't.
AI Tutor
Always available. Never gives the answer.
Ada and Cody guide throughout every lesson. Not to do the work, but to guide the thinking. Hints when stuck. Questions when close. Celebrations every time.
Project-Based
Every session ends with something real.
Not an exercise. Not a quiz. A game, a tool, a chatbot. Something the child built that they can share with anyone in the world.
Skill-Based
Right level. Every time.
Children placed by what they can do, not when they were born. No child feels behind or under-challenged. They start exactly where they are.
Parent Dashboard
See what they built. Know what's next.
Weekly summaries. Project logs. Skill progression. Parents in the loop without hovering over a shoulder.
Hatch Gallery
Real pride in real work.
Every completed project gets a shareable Hatch Card. The child's name, their project, the skills used, and a link anyone can visit.
Self-Paced
No deadlines. No pressure.
Any time. Any device. No live sessions to miss. Children move at their own speed, which means they actually enjoy the journey.
The Learning Journey
What happens in a typical lesson.
1
Ada or Cody opens with a real question
Every lesson starts with a question from the real world. One the lesson answers through doing, not theory.
2
Watch the animated lesson video
8 to 10 minutes. Fun, specific, age-appropriate. Ada or Cody explain in a way no textbook could.
3
Complete the interactive exercise
Test understanding before building begins. Immediate feedback. The AI tutor is on standby.
4
Build the lesson project
Step-by-step project brief. The child builds something real. The AI tutor gives hints, never the answer.
5
Share it to the Hatch Gallery
Shareable link. Hatch Card. Parents notified. The child moves on proud, every single time.

2017
Founded in Chennai
before AI had a mainstream name
About Hatch School of AI
We didn't follow the trend. We were busy building it.
Back in 2017, when most people thought coding education meant bootcamps for adults, we opened Hatch School of AI in Chennai. One of the first of our kind in the city and one of the most trusted names in children's technology education there.
“We were teaching kids to build AI-powered projects before the technology even had a mainstream name. Early, intentional, and ahead of the curve.”
Our Mission
Two kinds of people in the AI world. Consumers & Builders. We create the BUILDERS.
We believe there are two kinds of people in an AI world. Those who use the tools others built, and those who build the tools others use. Hatch School of AI exists to raise the second kind.
Not every child will become a software engineer. But every child deserves to understand the technology shaping their world and to know they have the power to shape it too.
We built the curriculum from the ground up. The community from the ground up. And now we're taking what we learned in Chennai and making it available to children everywhere.
What we believe
✓
Children learn by building, not by watching.
✓
Skill matters more than age. Every child has a right starting point.
✓
AI is a creative superpower. We teach children to use it like one.
✓
The best tutor never gives the answer. They ask the right question.
✓
Parents deserve to see exactly what their child is building. Always.
Our Values
The principles behind every decision.
⚒
Build first
Every feature, every lesson, every interaction is judged by one question: did the child build something real today? If yes, it earns its place.
♥
Children first
Parents are our customers but children are our users. We design for the child's experience and excitement above everything else, always.
❖
Ethics always
Every track includes lessons on digital ethics and responsible AI. We teach children to build technology that helps people, not harms them.
Chennai, 2017 — 2022
Where it all started.
Real classrooms. Real children. Eight years of learning what works before we built the platform that takes it global.
Eight years. Hundreds of children. One mission.
Our Story
Where we came from. Where we're going.
2017 — Chennai, India
Hatch School of Code opens its doors
One of the first coding schools for children in India. We built the curriculum, the classroom, and the community from the ground up.
Growing — Most trusted in Chennai
We became the name parents trusted
Word spread. Cohort after cohort. We weren't just teaching syntax. We were teaching children to think like builders. Parents saw the difference immediately.
COVID — The pivot
We moved online and never looked back
When COVID closed classrooms, we moved fully online. The quality didn't drop. It improved. We realised the world was our classroom, not just Chennai.
The AI Era — The rebuild
We rebuilt everything for the AI era
AI changed everything about what children need to learn. We redesigned every lesson around AI literacy, prompt engineering, and building with AI. Not a refresh. A complete rebuild.
Now — Global launch
Chennai-rooted. Available everywhere.
Available to families anywhere in the world. AI-powered tutoring, skill-based tracks, and 8+ years of experience knowing exactly what works for children.
Join the mission
The world needs builders. We make them.
Eight years in real classrooms with real children. Everything we learned is built into every lesson. Join the AI waitlist and be first.
