Challenges

What's slowing your team down today

  • Mixed-tool chaos

    Course platforms, Drive, WeTransfer and email all hold pieces of the same project.

  • Student privacy

    Many tools default to US processing, a problem under GDPR, especially for minors.

  • Cost pressure

    Per-seat US tools become unaffordable at university scale.
