Re:
Arrowroot Acquisition Corp.
Form 8-K filed August 17, 2023
File No. 001-40129
Dear Ms. Cooper:
On behalf of our client, Arrowroot
Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”), we submit to the staff of the Division of Corporation Finance of the Commission
(the “Staff”) this letter setting forth the Company’s response to the comment issued by the Staff by letter
dated August 18, 2023 (the “Comment Letter”) regarding the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K, filed August
17, 2023 (the “Form 8-K”). The text of the Staff’s comment has been included in this letter in italics for your
convenience, and we have numbered the paragraph below to correspond to the numbering of the Comment Letter.
Form 8-K filed August 17, 2023
Item 4.02 Non-Reliance on Previously Issued
Financial Statements
1. Please revise your disclosure to include a brief description of the facts underlying the conclusion
regarding the non-reliance in accordance with Item 4.02(a)(2). Your revised disclosure should describe the accounting error that you identified
and its effects on your financial statements.
The Company respectfully acknowledges the Staff’s
comment and advises the Staff that in Note 2 – "Restatement of Previously Issued Financial Statements” to the Unaudited
Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2023 (the
“Form 10-Q”), filed with the Commission on August 18, 2023, the Company included the information previously set forth
in the Form 8-K and further disclosed:
“In connection with the preparation of the Company’s
condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the period ended June 30, 2023, management identified a presentation error made
in its March 31, 2023 condensed consolidated financial statements. The Company determined that the value of the convertible promissory
notes were incorrectly adjusted to fair value instead of being booked at par. As a result, there should be a reversal of the change in
value of the convertible notes as previously disclosed. The Company has determined that the convertible notes require bifurcation under ASC
815-15-25-7. Management evaluated the conversion option contained within the convertible notes and determined their value to be de minimis.
As a result, the Company has recorded the value of the convertible notes at par.
In accordance with SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No.
99, “Materiality,” and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 108, “Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements when
Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements”; the Company evaluated the changes and has determined that the related
impact was material to previously presented financial statements.”

Additionally, Note 2 to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated
Financial Statements in the 10-Q includes a table reflecting the impact of the restatement on the Company’s unaudited condensed
consolidated financial statements.
As the Form 10-Q was filed within the requisite four
business days of the determination date of August 14, 2023, and one business day following the filing of the Form 8-K, the Company respectfully
submits that it has provided the missing information with respect to Item 4.02(a)(2), and that an amendment of the Form 8-K is not necessary
per General Instruction B.3. to Form 8-K, and upon the filing of the Form 10-Q and the separate and prominent presentation of the disclosure
in Note 2 – “Restatement of Previously Issued Financial Statements”, investors were adequately advised of the facts
underlying the conclusion regarding the non-reliance on previously issued financial statements.
Please do not hesitate to contact
Peter Byrne at (212) 479-6778 of Cooley LLP with any questions or comments regarding this letter.
Sincerely,
/s/ Peter Byrne
