## What makes EdTech succeed

- **Simple for teachers**: if attendance or grading takes longer than paper, the system fails. We test every workflow with teachers.
- **Works on low-end phones and slow networks**: lightweight apps, video that adapts to bandwidth and offline downloads.
- **Engagement built in**: streaks, progress tracking, reminders and parent visibility drive completion rates.
- **Content flexibility**: video, PDFs, SCORM packages, live classes and assessments in one place.
- **Accessibility**: captions, keyboard navigation and readable contrast for every learner.

## Delivery approach

1. **Discovery** with administrators, teachers and a few students or parents.
2. **Prototype** of the most-used screens, tested in a real classroom or cohort.
3. **Build in sprints**, timed around the academic calendar so launch lands before a term starts.
4. **Data migration and training** for staff, with simple guides for parents.
5. **Term-time support**, when load and support requests peak.

## Frequently asked questions

### Should we build a custom LMS or use Moodle or a SaaS platform?

Moodle and SaaS platforms suit standard courses. Custom platforms make sense when learning is your product, when you need your own brand and pricing, or when you need features such as live classes, marketplaces or deep integrations. A common middle path is customising Moodle or building a front end on top of it.

### How do you protect children’s data?

We collect only what is needed, use high-privacy defaults, capture verifiable parental consent where required, never use children’s data for advertising, encrypt records and restrict staff access by role.

### Can the system handle exam results and report cards?

Yes. We configure grading schemes, CBSE, ICSE, state board, IB, British or American report formats, and generate report cards and transcripts automatically.

### Do you build mobile apps for parents and students?

Yes. Parent apps typically include attendance, homework, results, fees, transport tracking and notices; student apps add classes, assignments and learning content.
