In 2009, Cerego launched a new Facebook app called Smart.fm Brainspeed that scans the information in the profiles of the user's friends and then creates a quiz around their personal information.[6]
Preliminary results from a study conducted at Excelsior College in 2014 indicated that using Cerego can help increase grades when studying math and biology online.[7]
In 2015, McGraw-Hill began using Cerego technology to improve their language instruction.[8]
The United States Army and United States Air Force have used Cerego technology in their combat learning programs.[9]
