Our approach

Today, there is a wealth of research that can drastically improve how we help students manage and master time for learning and for life. 

Although we are still a young company, it is vital that we base our products and our methodology on field expertise as well as on scientific research to create evidence-based practices. We firmly believe this is how real innovation will be brought to the time management tool industry in the next decades.

Putting student autonomy at the center of our approach, we aim to improve time management by nurturing its roots: learning motivation, self-awareness and task-engagement among others. 

We also work towards making sure that on the day of a test or a written exam our products enable students to put 100% of their energy into the task at hand. Our methodology resulted in a plan that reflects a great optimization of the student's strengths and challenges ; our design allows them to counter time distortion created by stress while keeping them engaged in the task at hand with all the crucial timely information.

Finally, every student is different, has his or her own optimal learning recipe and deserves to discover it as early as possible. That being said, in the next few years we are aiming to address the collateral issue of heavy bureaucracy often required with student differentiation (PIP/PII/IEP, 504 in the US). The process could be more automatic, much less cumbersome, leaving more time for you and your students.
We provide a methodology through our assistive technology to help students become stronger learners and develop a healthier relationship with time.
