Our Journey discovering what it means to be an Educator in the shift to Virtual Learning
We built the Educator Template as an organized workflow to assist global educators achieve the impossible.
Following our vision to invent a new tomorrow, we launched our first initiative in 2021 granting educators free pro access to our widgets. This focus on accessibility for teachers is critical for our business to maintain our core values, and empower virtual productivity and community-building in the lives of educators globally.
"Teachers are some of the most important people in our lives. They are also the people who help to frame our view of the world, open our eyes to new and exciting things, and inspire in us a love of learning. My mother was an elementary school teacher. I'm humbled to envision the widgets we create supporting the virtual future of education."
Sincerely, Alex Madrzyk Creator of Indify.co

Addressing a Global Problem, with careful Research & Development
Educators in today’s virtual landscape are facing unprecedented challenges in delivering an effective and engaging educational experience for their students.
We’ve built a strong community of educators by continuing to offer tools to help them succeed.
We’ve partnered with 5+ PhD candidates from our strong personal network of educational professionals (from Harvard, Columbia & UC Berkeley) to research their understanding on their educational workflow and discover synchrony with the tools Teachers rely on today.
🌱  Some of our interesting discoveries
Contrary to our initial assumptions, there are general tools locked to certain tools assigned by their school boards such as attendance tracking and grades would not be necessary.
Our goal isn’t to provide tools, just to provide tools.
Educators must create their own student improvement plan, and have a critical pain point creating a workflow to address this issue. We’ve created a useful module within the teacher template to address the individual needs of students embedded within a system that can continue to a grow to make room for adjustment.
While we initially believed in this as the “Teacher” plan we’ve seen our platform being used for other audience facing roles within the education space.
Do you consider a librarian a teacher? âś…
Do you consider a tour guide at a STEM museum a teacher? âś…
As a company, we’ve expanded our idea of what it means to affect the virtual space of education.
Being Proactive on Change.
With this information, we built out and iterated on the template to fit the needs of the educators, which packages our widgets into a seamless class management system.
We currently have over 1,000 teachers registered for the Educator Plan eager to utilize the template to its full potential and continue to trust our business with paid features
