Education: learning and licensing platforms
Your platform has to meet an academic or licensing standard exactly, and learners and staff still have to want to use it. We build and modernise EdTech platforms.
Problems we are brought in to solve
The platform has to meet an academic standard exactly
Outcome-based education means course outcomes, assessments and student progress have to map to frameworks such as Bloom’s Taxonomy and CO-PO mapping, which is a modelling problem before it is an interface problem.
Product work slows down as the learner base grows
A German EdTech scale-up running a digital licensing platform had to modernise its architecture to keep product development fast as its learner base grew across the DACH region.
Students and staff need everything in one place
Educational portals are asked to carry assignments, presentations, exams and online courses in a single coherent experience.
What we do in education
Build standards-aware platforms
Model the outcomes, assessments and progress tracking the institution is accountable for, then build the product around that model.
Modernise the architecture behind a growing platform
Embedded full-stack and backend engineers working on the platform’s architecture so product development keeps pace with the learner base.
Design and deliver the learner-facing product
UI and UX design, business analysis and delivery on portals that staff and learners use daily.

Where to start
Build or modernize software
For new platforms and for architecture work on products that have outgrown their first build.
Hard to find engineers
For EdTech teams that need backend and full-stack capacity without a long hiring cycle.
Implement AI
Where assessment, content or administrative workload is the limit on growth.
