Need something
built?
We build custom integrations, automation tools, and data pipelines for school districts. If you have a workflow that still runs on paper, a spreadsheet that should be a database, or a data source that should talk to another one. We've probably built something like it before.
What we build
Practical tools that solve specific problems. Nothing over-engineered, nothing you don't need.
Data Integrations
Pull data from one system and push it into another. SIS exports to external databases, CSV imports, API-to-API connections between the platforms your district already uses.
- SIS → custom database
- CSV import pipelines
- API integrations
Workflow Automation
Replace manual, repetitive processes with automated ones. If someone on your staff does the same thing every week by hand, it can probably be automated.
- Scheduled reports
- Notification workflows
- Data sync jobs
Custom Web Applications
Purpose-built apps for specific district needs: internal tools, parent-facing portals, staff dashboards. Built to run reliably without ongoing maintenance headaches.
- Staff-facing tools
- Parent portals
- Admin dashboards
Database & Reporting
Structured data storage and reporting for data that doesn't fit cleanly into your SIS. BigQuery, Postgres, or lightweight options depending on scale.
- BigQuery backends
- Custom reporting
- Data warehouse setup
LMS & SIS Integrations
Connections between your learning management system and student information system. Roster sync, grade passback, enrollment automation.
- Canvas integrations
- Aeries connections
- Destiny, California Colleges
Communication Tools
Automated notification systems, email workflows, and communication tools built around your district's specific needs and contact lists.
- Automated notifications
- Targeted email workflows
- Parent communication
Tools already running in production
Every project below was built for and is running in an active K–12 school district. These aren't prototypes. They're tools people use every day.
If your district has a similar problem, we can adapt what's already been built or start fresh depending on your requirements.
Summons Generator
Finds where a student is on campus based on their schedule and prints a summons for delivery. Replaced a manual process that required office staff to call individual teachers.
Infectious Disease Notification
Given a student or staff member who was ill, identifies all students and staff who shared a room with them during a configurable time window and generates notifications.
Athletic Event Tracker
Tracks athletic trainer events from routine taping through concussion protocol. BigQuery backend for reporting. Automated emails when concussion protocol is triggered.
SIS & LMS Integrations
Production integrations connecting the district's student information system with Canvas (LMS), Destiny (library), and California Colleges platform.
How it works
Tell us what you need
A conversation about the problem you're trying to solve: what the current process looks like, what systems are involved, and what success looks like.
We scope and quote it
We come back with a clear description of what we'll build, how long it will take, and what it will cost. No surprises.
We build it. You own it.
You get working software, documented, and yours to keep. No ongoing license fees for custom work. We're available for changes and maintenance if you need them.
Let's talk about your project.
Describe the problem, even roughly. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help and what it would take.
