Gaotu (高途) : NYSE-listed online education company delivering live, large-class courses to learners.

Founded in Beijing in 2014, Gaotu has traded on the NYSE as GOTU since June 2019 and adopted its current name in a 2021 rebrand.

It runs live online classes in language, professional and entrance-exam prep, backed by AI reading, writing and Q&A tools.

Learners sit mainly in mainland China and course content is in Chinese, so the platform suits Chinese speakers. Gaotu pivoted from K-12 tutoring toward adult and AI-driven study after China's 2021 limits on after-school classes.

Does Gaotu use AI for personalized learning?

Gaotu has invested in AI-driven personalized learning paths, automated essay grading, and adaptive practice tests. AI helps tailor content to individual student progress across its adult education programs.

What programs does Gaotu offer after its pivot?

Gaotu now offers civil service exam prep, graduate school entrance preparation, professional certificates, and language training. It competes with other adult ed platforms in China. All content is in Chinese.

What is Gaotu and how did it survive China's tutoring ban?

Gaotu (formerly GSX Techedu) was a top K-12 online tutoring platform. After 2021's ban, it pivoted entirely to adult education, vocational training, and college exam prep. The company is still publicly traded on the NYSE.
