- Founder-led, with senior specialists
Who we build for
The adults around children, at school and at home.
Two products in development, for the classroom and the home. Our work for schools is shaped with Alberta educators.
For familiesIn development
A simpler way for families to find the right support for their child's learning and wellbeing.
How we work
Every product earns its place before it reaches a school or a family.
We run a small company with the discipline of an audit, because what we build sits close to children.
Built with the people who use it
Teachers, educational assistants and parents try every product before it is released. What they tell us changes what we build.
Privacy by design
We design around Canadian and Alberta privacy law, with privacy counsel. We never use children's information to train AI. Each product's privacy notice will say where information is stored and processed, and by whom.
Decisions on record
Significant decisions are logged with their reasoning, so any of them can be audited later.
Proven before it grows
Nothing is released until testing and checks are complete, and nothing grows until the results say it should.
Who's behind it
A founder who has lived it, and specialists who have built it before.
Our founder lived the problem before she set out to solve it.
Before founding the company she spent a decade in senior finance, audit and compliance across global media and advertising, leading international audits for Coca-Cola and Unilever. It shows in how we build: claims tested, decisions documented.
Specialists who have worked with us

Educators
Our advisory panel of Alberta educators has seated an inclusion lead, with places open for teachers and educational assistants.
Take part
Help shape what we build.
There are two ways in: paid sessions trying early versions, or a seat on one of the advisory panels we are building. Sessions take about an hour and use made-up examples, never real children's information.
SessionsTeachers and assistants
You know the children best. Show us how your day really runs, and test tools built around what you tell us.
SessionsParents and carers
Tell us what would help at home, and test what we build for families.
Advisory panelsClinicians and teachers
Join the clinical or teacher advisory panel we are building, and review what we build before it reaches a classroom or a home.
