    AllHere, founded by Miami native Joanna Smith, is on a mission to provide K-12 school districts with personalized technology solutions to improve student outcomes. Today the education-technology startup announced it has closed an $8 million Series A round, led by Spero Ventures, with participation of SoftBank Opportunity Fund and others, to expand the capabilities of AllHere’s conversational AI-powered chatbot.

    Founded in 2018 in Boston, AllHere initially focused on measurably improving student attendance, the leading indicator of student success in K-12 education, and a number of schools in Miami-Dade and Broward counties have been using AllHere for that purpose. With the new funding, Smith said AllHere’s capabilities will expand.
