Its dashboards and roster views provide color-coded alerts, sorting, filtering, and student-level drill-downs. Data can come from student information systems, learning management systems, diagnostic and summative assessments, and other sources. AI tools explain dashboard results, assist with school improvement plans, predict dropout risk, and forecast assessment scores. The cloud-based SaaS platform describes out-of-box integrations, single sign-on, and a standards-based API environment that includes SIF and Ed-Fi. It is available through web and API platforms. The company says its data architecture is intended to support security and privacy, and its privacy policy describes protections for personal information in transit and after receipt. A 30-day trial focuses on SIS uploads and a couple of assessments, with predefined district administrator, principal, and teacher roles. Trial support includes documentation, email, and scheduled meetings as needed. Pricing is by contacting sales; subscription fees and user counts are set in a customer schedule. There is no free plan.
