Vlad Agureev
18 y.o. solo founder. I built an AI tutor to get my Oxford engineering offer, then open sourced it to schools. That got me into the s16vc bootcamp, which then converted into its accelerator, where I am now.
Now
September 2026
Building Outclass, giving schools and tutoring agencies their own AI. In the s16vc accelerator, expanding to more schools and agencies. Training for a full marathon.

OxbridgeAITutor
Where it started. Live at Brighton College.
I could not find prep that actually challenged me at the right level, so I built it myself and got my Oxford offer. An AI tutor for admissions tests and Oxbridge interviews, adapting to each student's mastery level. A live progress feed for parents.

Earlier builds
- ($25m seed)
- Robotics startup. I interned there, working with Rodion Shishkov to build the robotic arm for a robot that works on construction sites. Designed CAD models and 3D printed functional prototypes for robotic arm components. Internship.
- Just Do It
- Telegram group for friends to motivate each other through daily sport photos. Grew beyond the original circle. 1000+ active members.
- HomEats
- Marketplace for home chefs to sell meals to neighbours. Built out of frustration with London food prices. Blocked by UK regulations.
- School Food Feedback
- Every lunch brought complaints, so I built a site to rate meals and push improvements directly to the school. Improved meal quality.
