CodeMonkey Studios offers a game-based learning platform that teaches students eight years old and older to code in a real programming language.

The CodeMonkey curriculum is presented as a self-paced online game in which students advance through a progression of challenges. At each level of the game, students write real code to program a monkey to catch all the bananas on the screen. Each solution is checked and graded automatically, and students receive personalized instructions and hints to help them advance at a pace that is right for them.

In December 2018, the company was acquired by Beijing-headquartered educational service company TAL Education Group. CodeMonkey will continue operating as an independent subsidiary of TAL and will be responsible for the research and development of programming tutorials for the Chinese market and others.
