Founded in late 2019 by Neil D'Souza, Lawrence Kosick, and Deval Delivala, GetSetUp is an online learning platform designed for older adults to access technology education and digital skills training. The company facilitates peer-to-peer virtual classes taught by retired educators, delivering over 20 million learning sessions and 4,000 curated classes to millions of learners across four continents. GetSetUp generates revenue by partnering with over 32 United States state governments and over 60 Medicare Advantage and Medicaid plans. The enterprise is backed by angel investors and venture capital, receiving support from the founders of prominent companies including LinkedIn, Yahoo, and Zynga, alongside executives from United Healthcare and Rally Health. As the first AgeTech startup to scale simultaneously in the United States and India, the platform empowers seniors to navigate software and applications for healthier, more connected lives.
GetSetUp is an online social learning platform designed for older adults, offering live interactive classes, on-demand sessions, articles, and AI-driven tools focused on digital literacy, health, wellness, benefits navigation, and social connection.[1][2][3] It serves seniors worldwide—primarily those aging in place—through partnerships with governments, non-profits, health plans, and senior centers, solving isolation, skill gaps, and barriers to independent living by enabling peer-to-peer education and community building.[1][2][3] The platform has demonstrated strong growth, reaching 4.6 million unique monthly users across 160 countries in under two years (as of 2022 data), with ambitions for 15 million users that year, and continues expanding classes, partnerships, and AI features to scale globally.[1][2]
GetSetUp emerged as the first tech and stay-at-home social platform tailored for older adults, rapidly scaling to become the largest of its kind globally with over 4.6 million active monthly users by 2022.[1] While specific founders are not detailed in available sources, the company positioned itself early as a leader in addressing the health, wellness, and digital needs of the aging population through peer-taught classes on technology and life skills, proving demand among millions seeking digital confidence, socialization, and purpose.[1][2] Pivotal early traction came from free or subsidized access via 100+ global partners like states, local governments, non-profits, and health plans, fueling its growth to users in 160 countries and setting ambitious goals like fundraising $30-50 million for worldwide expansion.[1]
GetSetUp rides the longevity economy trend, targeting the global aging population boom where traditional infrastructure fails to deliver equitable services in fitness, mental health, preventive care, and digital access.[2] Timing aligns with post-pandemic shifts emphasizing virtual socialization, independent aging-in-place, and tech adoption among seniors, amplified by partnerships that subsidize access amid rising care demands.[1][3] Market forces like health plans' cost-reduction needs and governments' senior support initiatives favor its model, positioning it as a pioneer in age-specific tech—first global-scale platform for senior health/wellness via customized education.[1][2] It influences the ecosystem by inspiring peer products/services, proving scalable digital solutions reduce isolation, enhance wellness, and create "healthier communities," while AI innovations signal broader infrastructure reimagination.[2][3]
GetSetUp is poised to expand its AI-driven personalization, class offerings, and global partnerships, potentially surpassing early growth targets through planned fundraising and tech integrations that deepen user engagement and service connections.[1][2] Trends like AI in eldercare, rising silver economy investments, and demand for virtual wellness will propel it, evolving from education leader to comprehensive aging infrastructure provider amid a demographic shift demanding scalable, equitable solutions.[2] As the pioneer platform empowering active aging, its trajectory ties back to the core promise: unlocking joy, purpose, and connection for millions, reshaping how tech serves the world's largest growing demographic.[1][3]
