Is your edtech delivering
value for money?
Impact Manager is an always-on evaluation platform that helps school leaders make faster, smarter, evidence-based decisions.
"We can now build business cases on what to roll out across the group."

The missing evaluation layer between schools and their edtech.
All your edtech tools in one place — with evidence from your own evaluation workflows to know what to renew, what to renegotiate, and what to cancel. Every decision shaped by the people who matter most — teachers, leaders, and budget holders.
| Product | Used by | Price | Score | Evidence strength | Renews on ↑ | Cancel by | Renewal decision |

1Intake
Define your goals, then measure them.
Structured intake requests ensure every tool enters your ecosystem with clear goals. Evidence collected from day one, not retrofitted after the fact.
Schools that define success metrics at intake have far better renewal data when it matters.
2Approve
Structured approvals for faster sign-off.
Approval workflows route each request to the right stakeholders automatically — every step is visible to everyone involved, with real-time notifications at every stage so no one is left waiting.
Assigning your IT lead as a named approver at intake eliminates DPIA back-and-forth.
3Monitor
Adoption tracked — automatically, every week.
Once a tool is approved, Impact Manager monitors student and teacher usage continuously across every school. Adoption can be compared against our benchmarks, and if it drops below your threshold, the product's owner is notified.
Adoption typically drops in weeks 3–4. Early flagging gives you time to intervene before budget is wasted.
Weekly activity — 12 months
4Insight
Build a richer picture with authentic user feedback.
Leverage agile, research-backed surveys to build a deeper picture on what's working, what isn't, and where to act. AI summaries provide just-in-time insights so you can make judgements with confidence.
Teacher confidence is a stronger renewal predictor than student usage. Capturing both makes for better decisions.
5Decide
Every decision shaped by your data.
Make value for money decisions by benchmarking performance across your ecosystem and EdTech Impact's global dataset — then decide with confidence which products to keep, cancel, or expand.
Decisions backed by structured evidence take days, not weeks — with no last-minute scramble at contract end.

Start with a complete digital audit.
We handle the entire process — from mapping your ecosystem and removing duplicate spend, to getting your school live on a structured evaluation framework. Most schools are up and running within a month.
“Schools spend thousands on one-off audits that go stale the moment they’re delivered. Impact Manager is the cost-effective alternative — always-on, continuously evaluating, and keeping decisions grounded in the evidence most relevant to your context.”
