Who we are

US K-12 schools spend $650 billion each year with 28% wasted on repetitive administrative tasks. We’re building simple and elegant tools that tackle complex, long-standing issues in public education. Our innovative online forms and workflow platform transforms the school district back office and is being rapidly adopted by K-12 administrators across the country. We’re moving tremendous amounts of time and resources back into the classroom and allowing districts to cut waste, build more organizational capacity, and make better decisions. We help school districts drive the systemic change needed to improve productivity, accountability and equity.

Our founders came out of Stanford University’s Graduate School of Education. We are one of the first companies funded by Stanford’s StartX accelerator and top education technology incubator Imagine K12 (now part of Y Combinator).
