About TukToro and Team | Innovative Math Learning Toys for Kids

Child-friendly learning right from the start?

Exactly our thing!

For better learning experiences

We want to encourage children to discover their natural genius. In school and outside. Responsibly digital. Story after story after story…

The TukToro team

More joyful, happier and better learning - that was the goal of the founding team. Elisha Benner, Andreas Häring, Patrick Goehl, Martin Klemann and Justyna Zubrycka launched their company a2zebra with this vision in 2022.

They then launched TukToro at the end of 2024. It is the first digital and functional haptic toy that helps children discover the basics of arithmetic individually and in a playful way.

Elisha Benner

He is the visionary behind the product. Even as a teenager, the son of a learning therapist was interested in educational topics and founded a YouTube channel at the age of just 16 on which he posted videos on various aspects of school and learning. While he was studying to set up a company, he became increasingly interested in the subject and developed the idea of an educational toy. Since founding a2zebra, Elisha has taken over the management of the company and is primarily responsible for marketing, financing and representative tasks.

Co-Founder & CEO

Andreas Häring

“A paper cup and a rucksack full of dreams” is how he describes what Elisha came to him with a good 2.5 years ago. From this, the trained electrical engineer and embedded professional developed the hardware for today's TukToro figure and turned it into a miracle of technology. After more than 20 prototypes, Andi was satisfied with the sophisticated electronics and today he is always delighted with the effect TukToro has on children in practice.

Co-Founder & CTO

Justyna Zubrycka

The industrial designer specializes in beautiful things for children and has already made a name for herself in the industry with numerous outstanding projects. TukToro owes its character and appearance to her: With a lot of experience in connected toys and a psychological view of childlike play, she has created a creature that children can communicate with and be emotionally connected to.

Co-Founder & CDO

Patrick Goehl

Painting worlds with words - as the creative head of TukToro, stories are Patrick's passion. For him and his game content and UX team, the view extends from the desk into the night sky and ideas bubble up, fantastic worlds take shape and complex themes become tangible. From enchanted fairytale realms to golden cubes in the universe - his characters are waiting to be found by little explorers.

Co-Founder & CCO

Martin Klemann

He starts where the hardware ends. Martin leads the software team and takes care of everything that happens beyond the Bluetooth interface in the TukToro app. The software developer translates TukToro's adventure stories into technology: That the games work on the tablet and smartphone, when TukToro reacts and how, and how the mechanics of each game work.

Co-Founder & Director of Software Engineering

Developed with children and educators

TukToro means learning with all the senses! The toy combines the methodical approach of the cube box with emotional storytelling - a combination that not only convinces children and families, but also a large number of investors and influencers.
