Industries — EdTech & Higher Education
EdTech engineering for institutions that need it done right.
LMS integrations, Salesforce Education Cloud, AI student analytics, and higher education data systems — built by engineers who have shipped production tools used by thousands of students and delivered by faculty every day.
Case Study
AI Student Success Recommendation Engine
Built for a US higher education institution — a multi-model AI system that analyses student engagement across Canvas LMS, assessment performance, attendance records, and historical academic data to predict students at risk of course failure.
The system delivers ranked, explainable intervention recommendations to academic advisors in real time — prioritising the students who most need outreach, with the context advisors need to have a productive conversation. Integrated directly with Salesforce Education Cloud and Canvas LMS.
The model draws on years of historical student data, retrains automatically as new outcomes are recorded, and provides confidence scores so advisors know when to trust the recommendation and when to look deeper.
EdTech Capabilities
From LTI tool development to AI analytics platforms — built by engineers who understand how higher education institutions actually work.
Canvas LMS — LTI Integrations
Production LTI 1.1 and LTI 1.3 / Advantage tool development for Canvas. Assignment and Grade Services for bidirectional grade exchange, Names and Roles Provisioning Service for roster sync, Deep Linking for content placement, and custom activity tools embedded in Canvas course pages.
D2L Brightspace Integration
D2L Valence REST API for grade synchronisation, user provisioning, course and content management, and reporting data extraction. LTI tool development, custom widgets, and data integration pipelines connecting Brightspace to institutional CRM and SIS systems.
Blackboard & Anthology
Blackboard REST APIs, Building Blocks for classic Learn, and Ultra experience extensions. User synchronisation, grade passback, content integration, and migration tooling for institutions transitioning between Blackboard versions or platforms.
Salesforce Education Cloud
Salesforce EDA (Education Data Architecture) configuration and customisation, student lifecycle management from application to alumni, Advisor Link setup, and application workflow automation. Deep integration with Canvas, D2L, and Slate for a complete institutional data picture.
Slate (Technolutions) Integration
Slate integration with Salesforce and LMS platforms for higher education application-to-enrolment data flows. Applicant record synchronisation, application status triggers, financial aid workflow automation, and enrolment funnel reporting.
AI Student Success Engine
Predictive models that combine LMS engagement data, assessment performance, attendance, and demographic signals to identify students at risk of course failure — and generate ranked, explainable intervention recommendations for academic advisors.
Student Information System (SIS) Integration
Connecting SIS platforms (Banner, Colleague, PeopleSoft, Workday Student) to LMS, CRM, and analytics systems. Enrolment data flows, grade writeback, course section creation automation, and identity federation.
EdTech Product Development
Greenfield EdTech product development — learning tools, adaptive content platforms, student engagement applications, and institutional reporting portals. Mobile-first, accessibility-compliant, and designed to integrate with the LMS ecosystem from day one.
Integration Complexity
Higher education has the most complex integration landscape in any industry.
A typical higher education institution runs a Student Information System, a Learning Management System, a CRM, an admissions platform, a financial aid system, a library system, and a growing number of specialised applications — none of which were designed to talk to each other. Every student record touches all of them.
LTI 1.3 Advantage is the integration standard that binds tools to LMS platforms — but implementing it correctly, with all four LTI Advantage services, grade passback, deep linking, and proper JWKS key rotation, requires genuine expertise. Getting it wrong means your tool works in development and fails in production when the institution has 40,000 students enrolled.
We've built LTI tools that run in production. We know the edge cases — course copy scenarios, cross-institution resource links, FERPA-compliant data transmission, and the specific quirks of each major LMS's LTI implementation.
LMS (Canvas, D2L, Blackboard)
Course delivery, grade recording, student engagement data
