THANK YOU FOR SUBSCRIBING
Jacob Makuvire, Founder and CEOThe abundance of choices, however, raises a challenging question: whether more is always better.
Many districts face confusion instead of clarity. Overlapping applications and competing platforms crowd the learning environment, leaving administrators to wonder which tools deliver real impact, which are redundant, and which expensive licenses remain untouched. The result is a paradox. Technology designed to simplify learning often introduces an additional layer of complexity.
SWYE360 AI was created to bring order and clarity to that complexity.
Its AI-powered EdTech analytics platform helps K–12 school districts identify which tools are most effective. By combining ROI analytics with usage intelligence, the platform highlights applications that drive outcomes, flags redundancies, and uncovers underused resources.
With these insights, administrators can make more informed decisions and ensure that every dollar spent translates into stronger teaching and learning.
“Our goal has never been to add another platform to the pile. It’s to give districts the clarity to see which investments matter and which don’t,” says Jacob Makuvire, founder and CEO.
At the core of SWYE360 AI is a foundation designed to do the heavy lifting. Nearly 90 percent of the work is automated. The platform maps a district’s ecosystem, learning which tools are in place, who uses them, and how often, and then gathers that intelligence into a single, accessible source. This is beyond a click and a login into a software application.
What sets the platform apart is its data backbone. SWYE360 AI has built proprietary AI and machine learning models in-house for predictive analytics and pairs them with Gen AI as a global comparison layer. This dual approach identifies redundancies, analyzes how applications are designed for use, compares them with alternatives within the district, and benchmarks them against global peers. This process drives districts’ operational efficiency and effectiveness.
The result is a balance of automation and human insight, giving administrators a clear, evidence-based view of what works best for their community.
The value of that clarity becomes evident in practice. One district partner invested nearly $60,000 in math software for middle school intervention. Once SWYE360 AI was deployed, administrators saw that the program was not being used with fidelity. At the same time, data revealed that another, unpaid software the district didn’t even realize it had, was heavily used and producing the strongest math gains at the middle school level.
Armed with this knowledge, the district eliminated the underused program to save $60,000 and redirected students toward the free tool that was already delivering results. What might have been dismissed as another budget line item became a clear case of reallocating resources to support student success.
The mission, however, reaches beyond cost savings. SWYE360 AI was founded to expand equitable access to great teaching and learning. Every student today interacts with technology during the school day. The opportunity lies in harnessing the data from those interactions to shape better outcomes. Its vision is to become the single source of truth for district-wide data linking software usage with attendance, behavior, and social-emotional factors to show how every element influences learning.
It is an ambitious vision, but one rooted in real classroom experience. It envisions a unified environment where educators can see not only what tools are in use but also how those tools impact performance and growth. For school districts nationwide, that clarity means creating conditions that enable every student to thrive.
