Special education first

The gap gets fixed, not litigated.

The intelligence layer that catches risk before it becomes a lawsuit, supports teachers, and learns from every case.

InSight interface concept: a triennial psychoeducational evaluation readout listing findings with page citations, a grade-level standard check, and a cost-of-forgetting tracker.

What InSight does

One engine, three payoffs.

In the order a district values them.

1 · Catches the gap early

Fixed at the draft, not at the hearing

InSight reads every IEP and 504 before it goes out: the gap that turns into a complaint gets fixed, not litigated.

2 · Supports teachers

An expert, built in

No teacher has to be a special education expert alone. InSight carries that judgment into every lesson plan, without adding to their workload.

3 · Supports students

Every learner reached

Every learner gets their own version of the assignment, matched to their plan, held to the same grade-level standard as their peers.

Districts buy it to stop paying for the same mistake twice. Teachers keep it because it lifts the load. Students benefit because the standard finally reaches them.

How it works

InSight adds the judgment your systems lack.

One assignment in, one compliant version per learner out.

Student Information System

Holds the IEPs, 504s, and rosters

InSight

Reads the plan, adapts with fidelity

Google Classroom

Delivers each learner's own version

InSight integrates with the SIS and Google Classroom you already run and adds the judgment they lack. Every learner reaches the grade-level standard; any version that drops below it is flagged.

Catch the error before the report goes out. Human-led at every step. Nothing auto-publishes.

Proof of concept

Every record we sampled missed a required element.

Proven by hand across 20 districts before a line of code.

of the founder's private advocacy, not marketed, not public.

20

districts, every case documented and de-identified.

100%

of roughly 60 sampled records missed at least one required element, each finding cited to its page.

Why InSight

Competitors own a piece. InSight assembles the whole picture.

Rival tools each own one slice, so the record stays fragmented. InSight connects the data, remembers what works, and lifts outcomes.
