Chegg, Inc
An American educational technology company that helps college students with textbook rentals, digital study tools, homework help, and online tutoring. It began in 2000 as a Craigslist-style student message board at Iowa State University before becoming a textbook-rental business in 2005. The name blends "chicken" and "egg," a nod to the catch-22 students face needing experience to land a first job.
