When Dan, Raf, and I founded Clever, it was driven by a belief that technology would become a powerful lever: making learning more engaging, making teachers\u2019 lives easier, and increasing educational equity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Nearly ten years later, education technology has made a bigger impact than we ever could have imagined. And Clever has become an important part of the edtech ecosystem, with more than 50% of all K-12 students in the U.S. logging in to Clever to access their digital resources. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
And we have only just begun. Our big vision includes reaching even more students and working on new ways to make learning more joyful. Today I\u2019m thrilled to share an exciting milestone for us along that journey, which is that Clever will be joining the Kahoot! Group to make that vision a reality even sooner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We\u2019ve been big fans of Kahoot! for a long time \u2013 ever since we launched on the same stage at SXSWedu in 2013. And if you\u2019ve been in a classroom, you know the electrifying energy that fills the room any time a teacher launches a kahoot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
And behind the incredible product is a mission \u2013 Make Learning Awesome<\/em> \u2013 and values \u2013 be playful, be curious, be inclusive<\/em> \u2013 that perfectly align with what we believe in at Clever. As we\u2019ve gotten to know the Kahoot! team, we\u2019ve realized that we are kindred spirits dedicated to serving students, educators, and edtech creators everywhere.<\/p>\n\n\n\n We\u2019ve welcomed an all-star roster of new companies to the platform this past year, including Khan Academy<\/a>, McGraw Hill<\/a>, and Google<\/a> \u2013 but we\u2019ve lost count of how many times teachers have requested we bring Kahoot! onto Clever!<\/p>\n\n\n\n We\u2019re thrilled to share that as part of this announcement, we\u2019ll finally be delivering on one of our most-requested integrations for districts. We\u2019re excited to work closely with the Kahoot! team and bring all of their beloved teacher experiences onto Clever, including the Kahoot! EDU<\/a> products for schools and the entire Kahoot! Academy<\/a> educator community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n We\u2019re constantly asked when Clever will be available outside of the US & Canada. Kahoot! is one of the most popular and beloved educational products in the world, with a reach that stretches across over 200 countries globally. We couldn\u2019t be more excited to leverage the international scale and expertise in the Kahoot! Group to accelerate Clever\u2019s path to classrooms all around the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This won\u2019t just help schools\u2013for many of our app partners, supporting international implementations has been a top request. We know that if we can help edtech applications better serve education globally, we can help the entire ecosystem continue to grow and thrive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n While we\u2019re excited about the changes, rest assured we aren’t changing. Clever is continuing to do what we do best. Our team\u2019s dedication to incredible customer support and reliability is unchanged. Our industry-leading commitment to student data privacy, security, and compliance is only getting stronger which will continue to be a key focus for us when scaling internationally. Our innovative business model\u2013 working with our app customers so we can offer Clever\u2019s platform to districts for free\u2013 isn\u2019t changing. We\u2019re remaining an open platform, accessible to all schools and all companies. <\/p>\n\n\n\nWelcoming Kahoot! onto Clever<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
