Nico and Edlyn, siblings from Toronto, asked for $10,000 for 50% of Aidify, a Chrome browser extension that provides a detailed playback of edits made to a Google Docs document, showing backspaces, pasted text, time spent, and individual contributions in group work, intended to help students prove their work was not AI-generated. The tool was built by the two founders themselves in under a month, with a planned premium plan for teachers integrated into Google Classroom priced at $5 per teacher per month; total spending so far has been about $20 on domain and hosting, and the siblings have $18,000 in the bank from pitching competition winnings.
Michele Romanow and Brian Scudamore each first offered $10,000 for 50%, and Arlene Dickinson proposed combining all five Dragons into one $50,000 for 50% offer, which Manjit Minhas and Wes Hall agreed to join. The siblings accepted the combined offer of $50,000 for 50% from all five Dragons.
