What sets AskEDU apart

Find communication gaps before they reach your office.

AskEDU is being developed alongside a founding group of private, charter, independent, and Montessori schools.

Accuracy & control

Answers you and your families can rely on.

Grounded in approved information

Answers come from the documents your school uploads, not the open internet.

Source citations

Every reply can point to the document behind it, so it's easy to verify.

Multilingual

Families ask and get answers in their own language, automatically.

School-controlled documents

You decide what AskEDU can see. Add, update, or remove documents any time.

Isolated per school

Each school's information stays separate. One school never sees another's data.

Knows when to defer

When reliable information isn't available, AskEDU points the family to the office.
