About us

A teacher beside every child who sets out into the world

For a family learning across borders, schools, cities, costs and paperwork are always unfamiliar problems. We take the experience of those who went first, widen it with data and AI, and help children grow wherever they are.

Mission

We connect families, schools, companies and cities so that every child can set out boldly, take on challenges and grow — wherever they learn.

Vision

A world where every child who learns across borders grows into a person who connects it.

Slogan

Go, Sam! Go further.

Go further, together.

Core values

01

Growth

A child's growth is our measure. Every decision is judged by whether it takes a child further.

02

Boldness

We respect the courage to leave the familiar, and we open new paths first ourselves.

03

Challenge

We do not step around hard problems. We untangle the complexity of education abroad, one knot at a time.

04

Connection

We link people and schools, cities and the world. The wider the connection, the wider a child's world.

05

Trust

We show our sources and the date we checked them, say so when we do not know, and disclose how we earn.

Brand philosophy

GoSam is the name of the teacher who stays beside a child at every step of learning across borders. We take the experience of those who went first, widen it with data and AI, and link families, schools, companies and cities into one network. We respect the boldness of a family that leaves the familiar, and we stay with them until that challenge becomes growth. Raising children who connect the world — that is why GoSam exists.

The name

GoSam

GoSam joins Go — set out into the world and walk the road together — with Sam, from 쌤, the warm everyday Korean word for a teacher: a friendly companion at your side. On the road to a new country, Sam goes with children and parents, side by side. Read in English it is also "Go, Sam!" — going forward with Sam.

What we do

  1. 1Data that lets you compare international schools worldwide, and local public schools and districts in English-speaking countries, on the same terms
  2. 2An AI recommendation engine that analyses the latest official ratings, fees and curriculum data to help you pick good districts and schools
  3. 3An AI agent that helps from finding a school to booking tours and preparing admission
  4. 4A readiness check and bridge school for the child
  5. 5A simulator for tuition transfers and exchange rates
  6. 6A B2B programme for companies that support employees' children's education

How we make money

Search, comparison and consultation are free for parents. Revenue comes from school partner fees, company programme subscriptions and remittance partnerships, and a partnership is always disclosed on the screen where it applies. Money never changes the order in which schools are recommended.

Team

AI agents run the service; people set its direction. The founder — a parent and education operator who has lived the international-school experience in Asia first-hand — sets the direction, the data standards and the partner principles, together with an advisory board, school admissions staff, local partners in each city and the parent community.
