Hawaii Science & Technology Education Llc is one of 262 Edtech companies tracked from HONOLULU. By capital raised it ranks mid-pack (ahead of 55% of sector peers), and in the upper tier by modeled valuation est..
Ranking is computed against this company's own sector cohort — reported capital is fact; valuation tiers are modeled.
As reported in public records reported — not modeled.
Solid bars are reported offering amounts reported; hatched bars are the modeled post-money valuation est. — both on one shared scale so you can read raise-vs-worth at each round directly. Use the toggles to overlay data labels and the niche-peer / market average value lines.
The line shows cumulative reported funding over the period; + labels show new capital added between points when there is room. Toggle on-bar figures, plus the niche-peer and market averages, to read this company against its cohort. Benchmarks are modeled medians.
Stages are modeled from round size (public records carry no series label). No record for: Pre-Seed — the company may have raised it under a different exemption, merged it into an adjacent record, or skipped it. Sequence completeness: 50%.
Round size and date are reported; the stage label is inferred from round size (latest is Seed — a $1.0M–$4.0M round). Valuation is modeled from stage benchmarks scaled by the edtech sector profile. Directional, not a quoted figure.
Not enough modeled valuation points to chart a trajectory.
Benchmarked against 262 companies in Edtech. Each bar is a median (the middle company, not an average — outliers don't skew it). Two yardsticks: real money raised (reported on Form D) and modeled value (our estimate est.). These are whole-sector medians across all stages, except the per-stage row.
Raised more than 55% of sector peers (real $). Modeled value above 71% of peers (estimate).
A tighter cohort than the sector chart above — only companies at the same stage (Seed) that last raised in the same ~3-year era, ranked by modeled value est. (not money raised). This is the exact set the analyst read compares against, so a like-for-like cohort is what makes "over/under-valued" meaningful. This company ranks #9 of 18.
