A living view of every learner.
Not a grade. A growth.

SproutMap turns everyday observations into a living map of each child's growth across 8 dimensions — anchored to age-level expectations, with AI that turns the evidence into next steps for every learner. Built for K–12 systems that measure what matters.

A grade is a snapshot — what a child got right on a Friday.
SproutMap is a living picture of growth — who they're becoming, month by month.

9 in 10 families believe their child is on track. Fewer than 4 in 10 are. Snapshots hide the gap — a living map closes it.

How it works

Three habits. A living portrait of growth.

Educators do what they already do — notice things. SproutMap captures those moments and turns them into a picture worth showing a family.

Observe in 20 seconds

One tap to record what you saw — a moment of curiosity, a kindness, a stuck point. No rubrics. No forms. Just notice.

Quick observation modal · multi-rater

Watch the map grow

Each observation reshapes the learner's living map. Growth surges, plateaus, dips — eight dimensions, four levels, one honest shape, every month of the year.

Monthly snapshots · grade transitions

Plan & share what matters

AI turns the class's evidence into small groups and next steps for you — and into plain-language growth stories for families. Admins see school-wide patterns before the report card would have caught them.

See it in action

Growth ebbs and flows.
Drag the timeline — watch it happen.

This is Gia Chen, a real-third-grader-shape, from September through May. Each tick is one month of observations. Curiosity surges when a project catches fire. Collaboration plateaus during solo work, then comes back. A grade transition resets the rings — new expectations, same kid, still growing. The ebb and flow isn't noise. It's the most useful signal a teacher has.

  • Eight dimensions, not eighty cells.Communication, Curiosity, Collaboration, Critical Thinking, Creativity, Self-Direction, Stewardship, Empathy.
  • Dips are information, not failure.A quiet month in Communication tells you where a learner's interest and effort went — and teachers see it in time to act, not in June.
  • Built for the long arc.September resets are baked in. The blob doesn't pretend a 3rd-grader's "Achieving" is a 4th-grader's "Achieving".

AI at the educator level

AI that reads your class — so you can teach it.

SproutMap's AI works for the educator, never around them. It reads only what's actually been observed — every learner's competencies, growth, and notes — and turns that evidence into a plan you'd recognize as your own. Powered by Claude.

  • Read the whole class in a minute.Class Analysis surfaces trends across the room, flags learners who need a moment, and shows where the class is pulling ahead — before a report card ever would.
  • Differentiate without the spreadsheet.AI clusters learners who'd thrive in the same small group — grouped by where their evidence says they are today, not by last year's label.
  • From evidence to assignment.The Learning Guide proposes specific, prioritized activities for a learner or a group — each one tied to what was actually observed, ready to put to work.
  • Send support home.The Family Support Guide turns a child's developing areas into simple, no-prep activities for dinner, the car, or bedtime.

No student-facing chatbot. AI drafts, educators decide — and student data is never used to train AI models.

Competency Snapshot

Exactly where each learner stands — for their age.

The map shows growth over time. The Competency Snapshot answers the question every family actually asks — “is my kid on track?” — honestly, and without a letter grade: every competency inside every dimension, placed against age-aligned expectations: below, at, or above where a child their age is expected to be.

  • Per-competency, not just per-dimension.Each competency sits on its own Below · At · Above-age spectrum, grouped under its dimension — not a single blurry grade.
  • Weighted to the present.Built from the most recent observations, so it reflects where the learner is today — not a flattened whole-year average.
  • Age-aware by design.Expectations step up each school year using each competency's own age band — so "Achieving" means achieving for their age.
  • One model, two audiences.Educators see detail and trend; families see a plain-language view — and educators choose, per student, when to share it.

Built for the whole job

Two more things schools shouldn't have to bolt on.

Incident reporting & documentation

File a structured incident once — it lands on a school-wide dashboard and on every involved learner's profile. Set severity and roles per student, move it from open to resolved with a follow-up trail, and attach photos or PDFs.

Family visibility is set per child, with automatic redaction: a parent viewing a multi-student incident only ever sees their own child — enforced at the database, not just the screen.

Central dashboard · per-student redaction · full follow-up lifecycle

Standards translation

Assess in your own framework, then express the very same evidence in someone else's. SproutMap translates a learner's assessed competencies into Common Core, NGSS, CASEL and more — each mapping with an AI confidence score and a plain-English rationale.

Grade-aware and conservative by design — so when a learner transfers or a new school asks for standards-aligned evidence, it already speaks their language.

Common Core · NGSS · CASEL · with confidence + reasoning

Our families used to ask "how's my kid doing?" and we'd say "fine" or hand them a transcript. Now we open SproutMap together and they cry. The good kind.
