LSIM vs Osprey

LSIM is a web application for managing student records linked to Individual Education Plans and Student Learning Plans. Learning Support Coordinators, teachers, and Educational Assistants can view or enter plan information. IEP records may contain goals, objectives, strategies, evaluation criteria, daily progress levels, and related logs. Student Learning Plans track campus-specific details and activity logs for students needing assistance, while schools can customize adaptations, assessments, and plan fields by campus. Reports include IEPs, SLPs, monthly IEP progress, term IEP reports, and activity logs. Active Directory integration provides access control and single sign-on through network credentials. LSIM can receive periodic read-only updates from a school’s master student database; a PowerSchool solution is already in place. Communications are encrypted, and access is restricted by student assignment and role permissions. Major browsers supported include Edge, Chrome, Firefox, Opera, and Safari. Listed hosting requirements are Microsoft SQL Server 2014 or higher and Microsoft IIS 8.5 or higher on Windows Server 2012 R2 or higher. Pricing is by annual school subscription and requires a quote.

Osprey connects planning, session data collection and progress documentation for teams working with Individualized Education Programs (IEPs). Practitioners can use AI to turn a written goal or lesson description into an IEP-aligned activity, then accept or edit it. Session tools cover DTT trials, interval recording, frequency observation, articulation probes and rubric scoring. Progress views include independence across sessions, curriculum-based measurement against an aimline and combined progress across active IEP goals. Practices and centers can share learner records with supervisor oversight and cross-discipline visibility. School and district workflows include IDEA-aligned documentation, generalization tracking across settings and a connected FBA/BIP workflow. The individual practitioner app is described as offline-capable for places with unreliable Wi-Fi. It is available on Android, iOS, web and Windows. Individuals can use a free plan with a live web demo; paid pricing is on request, and formal plan names and prices are not published. AI processing of identifiable learner data requires recorded learner-level consent.
