What does EdTech consulting include?

EdTech consulting includes selection of the right technology solutions, product analysis of existing platforms, development strategy creation, and security enhancement. Consultants help educational organizations make informed technology decisions to improve learning outcomes and operational efficiency.

Who needs education technology consulting?

EdTech consulting is valuable for educational institutions (schools, colleges, universities), corporate learning and development teams, and online education platforms looking to improve efficiency, reduce costs, scale operations, or access specialized technology expertise.

What are the main benefits of EdTech consulting?

The main benefits are efficiency improvement in educational workflows, reduction of operational expenses through better technology choices, scaling of learning programs, and access to specialized expertise in educational software without hiring full-time specialists.

Can you join a project that is already in progress?

Yes. We are ready to join at any stage of the project — whether you need consulting at the planning stage, a mid-project technology review, or help optimizing and scaling an existing EdTech platform.

Do your EdTech consultants work with the client's internal team?

Yes. We work alongside your internal team — sharing knowledge, reviewing decisions, and providing guidance without replacing your existing staff. Our consultants integrate into your workflow rather than operating in isolation.

Education technology consulting

Our team of EdTech consultants will assess and help educational institutions or organizations to improve their current products, ensuring they remain modern and stable. To do this, we’ll create a comprehensive strategy with recommendations. And for those that have only an idea of the app they want to develop — we can help bring it to life.

EdTech consulting services we offer

Selection of technology solutions

If your project is still in the idea stage, we can help you select a platform, features, and technology stack that align with your goals and budget.

If you already have a launched product, we’ll analyze your IT infrastructure and conduct interviews. Then, we’ll offer integrations and cloud services to help you optimize your work processes.

We can also continue our collaboration by implementing the selected technology solutions in your project.

Product analysis

Our EdTech consultants will examine your product’s IT infrastructure and UI/UX design. They’ll also analyze your business processes and strategy. This is necessary to determine how well the system aligns with your business objectives and to identify areas for improvement.

As a result, you’ll receive a report listing shortcomings and providing recommendations.

Creation of a development strategy

First, consultants will assess the state of the market and your EdTech product. Then, they will clarify your long-term business goals in order to gain an objective understanding and make data-driven decisions.

Finally, the consultants will draw up a roadmap that includes stages, resources, and technology solutions.

Security enhancement

We’ll conduct a security audit to identify vulnerabilities and ensure compliance with GDPR and PCI DSS regulations. Based on the results, we’ll develop and implement a protection strategy that includes technical measures, security policies, and incident response regulations.

We were contacted by the English Education Providers Group, a network of 42 private English-language schools in Kuwait with 9,000 students. They provide education according to international standards. However, the client depended on third-party services, which led to high costs and mismanagement.

Our team developed an MVP version of the platform, focusing on features for super admins and parents. The developers used Next.js, NestJS, and PostgreSQL, a technology stack that allows for easy infrastructure scaling in the future. The team also created an admin panel with different access levels and a landing page for the school’s main website.

College management

Our client — IThub college, a private educational institution with 6 departments that prepare students for careers in IT and the creative industries. The college’s existing platform was outdated. Pages took up to 10 minutes to load, and there were scaling issues when connecting with new partner cities.

Our team divided the development into two stages. First, we created an MVP with an updated design, basic functions, and five roles by September 2023. Then, by September 2024, we added the curator role and advanced features and transitioned all users to the new platform. To speed up the process, we switched from Scrum to Kanban and reorganized the management of our team through decentralization.

Design and development took ~2 years

The director of an online store approached us. The client wanted to replace their outdated employee onboarding system with a modern “online university” offering courses on Excel, presentations, personal effectiveness, and other topics.

We developed an MVP, implementing a role-based system with a hierarchy of rights based on the “matryoshka” principle. There's only one account, and users can switch roles. Although we work in sprints, the developers started with features because the roles are interconnected. To speed up the process, they chose the Next.js and Nest.js stacks, and designers created an Airbnb-inspired orange-and-neon color scheme.

Benefits of EdTech consulting

Efficiency improvement

Educational technology consulting identifies bottlenecks in educational processes and administrative tasks. Automating routine tasks, such as grading assignments and creating reports, allows educators to spend more time on other activities. Meanwhile, data analysis can help businesses identify struggling students and determine which course modules need improvement.

Expenses reduction

System optimization reduces costs. An audit can help eliminate duplicate tools, such as three LMSs in different departments of a university. For businesses planning to scale, switching to cloud solutions is more cost-effective than using servers. Moreover, implementing data protection measures reduces the risk of fines for data leaks.

Scaling

Our EdTech consultant will advise you on how to scale the system. For instance, selecting a cloud platform can help institutions accommodate more students without replacing the system. Designing courses according to the SCORM standard allows businesses to manage content and develop training programs quicker due to the ability to reuse materials.

Access to expertise

Consulting services benefit businesses and educational institutions that want to implement new technology solutions, such as AR, VR, and gamification, but don’t know where to start. The team will research, identify limitations, provide advice, and select suitable technology solutions.

KEM — Payment app

Watch a video review

I'm the CEO of KEM, a P2P mobile payment service for the Kuwaiti market, where not everyone has access to online banking. Our banking partners needed an MVP for demonstrations. Purrweb delivered the design and the MVP, working around the restrictions on connecting to the banking API. On completion, they handed the project over to our in-house team with full documentation and a month of technical support.

KEM — Payment app

Fintech, Design+Development, Mobile app, Cross-platform, MENA

KEM is a P2P app for instant money transfers in the Kuwaiti market: linked bank cards, money requests from the contact list, and transaction history. The key challenge: for security reasons, Kuwaiti banks don't allow outside developers to work with their API — so Purrweb built the back end on mock data, fully simulating the final functionality for demos.

I'm building Buzz, an app for finding and organizing events in small American towns. I came to Purrweb with almost nothing — just an idea. Purrweb helped with marketing, brand identity, and the logo, and walked the whole road to MVP with us, even when our requirements shifted a lot in the early stages. I valued the flexibility and the quality of the design.

Buzz is a geosocial service for residents of small American towns: a geolocation-based feed of public events, private events with friend invites, group chats, and a Ticketmaster integration. Purrweb created the brand identity from scratch, optimized the architecture, reused ready-made modules, and shipped the MVP in 12 months.
