SameGoal Special Education vs SEAS Achieve

SameGoal Special Education helps school districts manage IEPs, evaluations, progress reporting, and related documentation using state-published forms aligned with IDEA. Staff can edit documents in real time, chat within the product, and collaborate during parent meetings. Automated checks flag missing, inconsistent, and non-compliant data; a document cannot be completed until all checks pass. The forms library includes required, optional, and model forms published by state education departments.

Districts can share documents electronically for parents to view and sign on phones, tablets, or laptops. Directors can review district-wide documents, use administrative reports, and extract state reporting data; participation and deadlines are tracked automatically. The product supports SIS integrations and nightly imports of student and parent demographics, and completed documents can be displayed in the SIS. It is a web application for current and previous versions of Chrome, Firefox, Microsoft Edge, and Safari, and Android and iOS are listed platforms. Plans are per student per year for the 2026–27 school year: Standard is 12.98 USD, Plus 15.28 USD, and Pro 17.97 USD. A free 90-day trial is available; there is no free plan.

SEAS Achieve is web-based plan-management software that gives educators one login for IEP, ELL, RTI, Gifted and Talented, and Section 504 plans. Users can add students and plans, follow timelines and due dates, and communicate with parents, teachers, and administrators. Email alerts cover plans and tasks, while customizable timelines and cross-plan reports organize information for each student. Achieve integrates with CLASS, allowing recommendations to help create plans while reducing data entry. Its IEP Plan Pack includes goal pages, progress updates, custom goal and objective banks, a goal-development wizard, and reporting tools. SEAS says districts can adapt the pack to existing district and state forms. The Section 504 pack contains more than 30 OCR-compliant forms. Add-ons include SmartEval, with over 600 assessment templates, and Avatalker AAC, a picture-to-speech teaching aid. Updates for state and federal standards are automatically available. Pricing is on request.
