Email Template
Hi {{first_name}},
As someone building product at {{company_name}}, you probably have a clearer picture than anyone of how teachers and students actually use the platform versus how the sales deck says they should. That gap between intended and actual usage is where the most valuable product insights hide.
We help edtech product and engineering teams instrument their platforms to capture meaningful engagement signals, not just page views and login counts, but the behavioral patterns that predict whether a classroom will still be using the tool three months from now.
The setup is lightweight and designed for small teams. One engineer at an early-stage edtech company had it running in under a week and immediately found that their most promoted feature was being abandoned after the second session because the workflow had one unnecessary step.
Interested in seeing what this looks like technically? Happy to share documentation or jump on a call, whatever is easier. 11-15% reply rate
