    There are 44 million Americans burdened by student debt. The vast majority of them are enrolled in the wrong repayment plan, causing them to overpay by thousands of dollars and default on payments.

    Summer’s vision is to save these borrowers time and money by building an innovative platform to help navigate the complex student loan market. We're passionate about building smart tools from the ground up to provide customized repayment recommendations for all borrowers. Join us to help fix the system.

    Our team is passionate about harnessing technology to tackle a major social and economic issue for our generation. Our co-founders include a former member of the Obama Administration and SoFi, and the former product lead of two venture-backed fintech companies. We are backed by a team of world-class investors, including General Catalyst, NextView, Greycroft, Foundation Capital and Story Ventures––and our first partner is Yale University.
