Discovery & stakeholder mapping
We listen to educators, administrators, parents, students, and IT. Most edtech failures come from stakeholder mismatches.
Edtech that respects students and teachers.
We build learning platforms and student engagement systems that work for the people who use them: students, teachers, and the IT teams that keep them running on a budget.
What we do for schools and edtech.
In education, engineering judgment has to work within policy: FERPA, COPPA, IDEA, and the eight different accessibility standards that all matter. We build learning platforms, SIS integrations, and engagement tools with the privacy and accessibility practices K-12 and higher-ed institutions need, and the UX polish edtech founders are aiming for.
Where it helps most
K-12 districts & networks
Charter networks, state agencies, and large districts modernizing student-facing platforms.
Higher education
Universities and community colleges with custom integration needs around SIS, LMS, and student services.
Edtech companies
Funded edtech startups building consumer or B2B education products.
Workforce training & corporate L&D
Companies building workforce learning platforms, often connected to HR and credentialing systems.
What we deliver.
Each item below is a concrete deliverable that we scope, build, and stay accountable for.
Learning platforms
LMS extensions (Canvas, Blackboard, Schoology), custom learning experiences, content authoring.
Adaptive & AI tutoring
Adaptive practice systems, AI tutoring, and the eval discipline to make sure the AI is actually teaching.
SIS & data integration
PowerSchool, Infinite Campus, Banner, Workday Student. Roster sync, grade passback, OneRoster.
FERPA & COPPA
Privacy by design, parental consent flows, data residency, and the legal review your DPO will appreciate.
Accessibility (WCAG)
WCAG 2.1 AA conformance, checked by hand as well as with automated scans. Section 508 and ADA Title II readiness.
Engagement analytics
Student engagement, learning analytics, and the dashboards educators actually use.
How an engagement runs.
Five phases, each with outcomes we can measure.
Why work with us.
Accessibility is a release blocker
We don’t ship features without WCAG 2.1 AA conformance. It’s in our SOWs.
We’ve worked with school IT
We understand the constraints: devices, networks, identity, and district procurement timelines.
Privacy from the start
FERPA/COPPA compliance is part of our discovery, not a last-minute audit.
Frequently asked questions.
Still unsure? A 30-minute call with a tech lead answers the rest.
Ask us directlyDo you support OneRoster and LTI?
Yes: OneRoster v1.1/v1.2 for roster sync and LTI 1.3 (with LTI Advantage services) for LMS integration.
How do you handle parental consent (COPPA)?
We design parental consent flows aligned with COPPA Safe Harbor frameworks. For schools, we use the school-as-agent model where appropriate.
Do you build for state procurement?
Yes. We’ve supported education vendors through state-level procurement reviews, including data privacy questionnaires (CDE-DTPA, NTIA-style).
Can you handle exam-day traffic spikes?
Yes. We design for peak windows (state assessments, registration days) and run load tests at 10× normal load.
What about AI in education?
We’re selective. We won’t build AI features that aren’t educationally validated. We work with curriculum experts and run classroom pilots before claiming pedagogical impact.
