In their own words

Osprey

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.

Spiro

Spiro is a web-based AI platform for primary-school SEND administration. It helps SENCOs and school staff draft individual support plans from uploaded plans, notes, or reports, then supports termly AI-assisted progress reviews. EHCP workflows connect outcomes and statutory provision to pupil plans and can draft needs-assessment applications in local-authority formats. Schools can upload their own templates, select evidence, edit drafts, and export Word or PDF documents. Provision mapping covers pupils, groups, timetable slots, and costs, with AI suggestions for interventions and adjustments. Reports generated from live plan data support Ofsted, governor, and Inclusion Strategies reporting. MIS information syncs daily through Wonde, and multi-factor authentication is listed. Spiro says controlled personal data stays on UK servers, with TLS in transit and AES-256 at rest among its measures. Pricing starts at £500/yr, with no free plan; the first term is offered risk-free. It is operated by Medthrive Ltd in London.
