Paris, Tuesday, 8 September 2026.
On September 8, 2026, Paris-based Superprof acquired Tutors.com, completing its 21st international deal and becoming the largest tutoring platform in the United States.

Strategic Acquisition Consolidates U.S. Market Leadership

On September 8, 2026, Paris-based Superprof announced the acquisition of Tutors.com, marking the company’s 21st strategic international acquisition [1][2]. This transaction establishes Superprof as the largest tutoring platform in the United States, securing a leadership position in the North American market [1]. The deal was financed with a full cash payment at signing, backed by BNP Paribas and JPMorgan [1][2].

Financial Backing and Due Diligence Speed

Superprof CEO Wilfried Granier noted that due diligence was completed in just 21 days, with financing secured in the middle of August 2026 [2]. Legal teams worked through August 15 to finalize the agreement amidst competition from other bidders attempting to outbid the French firm [2]. Granier described the process as going all-in to seize the opportunity in the largest market on the planet [2].

Operational Scale and Future Integration

Tutors.com operated as an independent entity for 12 years prior to this acquisition, bringing a network of 3 million students and 200,000 tutors to Superprof [1]. While Superprof’s global network exceeds 40 million tutors, the United States became the company’s largest market in 2025 [1]. The new U.S. entity will be managed from Superprof’s headquarters in the 11th arrondissement of Paris [1].
