About Ctrl+Care

The story of two friends, a passion for helping others, and a mission to make artificial intelligence understandable for everyone.

Our Story

It started as a simple idea between two high school sophomores: Simone Todywala and Jhanvi Rapolou. They noticed something important — while artificial intelligence was changing everything, information about it felt meant only for a select few.

👫

High Schoolers on a Mission

Simone, a sophomore, felt it's important that more people are aware of the future of AI. Jhanvi, another sophomore, felt that it shouldn't matter whether you have a degree or some professional background as a computer scientist.

Together, they decided to create Ctrl+Care — a resource that's warm, friendly, and truly accessible. No jargon without explanation. No assumptions about prior knowledge. Just clear, caring instruction that met people where they were.

We're high school students looking to make a difference in our community, and we believe AI literacy should be for everyone.
