Texthelp and Scholarcy join forces to elevate academic study
The Texthelp Group is delighted to announce the recent acquisition of Scholarcy, a UK-based company specialising in smart technology for academic research, writing and study.
Scholarcy is a streamlined and user-friendly study tool that helps students and researchers to organise, summarise and critically evaluate sources. Alongside the existing solutions within the Texthelp portfolio, Scholarcy will play a pivotal role in enhancing the learning experience of higher education students across the UK.
At Texthelp, our purpose is to help people to understand and be understood. Phil Gooch, CEO of Scholarcy, shares this vision. Since he founded the company in 2018, over half a million students and researchers across the UK have used Scholarcy to read and understand academic texts.
“I’m very proud of what we have achieved with Scholarcy, and I’m excited to continue its evolution as we partner with Texthelp. Our shared goal is to make the world’s knowledge more accessible to everybody. Together, we can bring the benefits of this tool to more students and researchers than ever before.”

“The Texthelp team is thrilled to welcome Scholarcy to our brand family. Scholarcy offers an exciting new dimension to our higher education portfolio, giving more choice to students with additional learning needs.”
Rick Bell, SVP of International Education at the Texthelp Group
What’s next?
The two combined teams are focused on building an even stronger suite of study support tools for students across UK Higher Education. By bringing together our expertise and resources, we’ll be able to take Scholarcy to the next level, expanding its reach and impact.
