As a parent of a child with an IEP, I know the weight of that document. As a former Principal, I know the stress of a $100k settlement. I saw a system where compliance was a game of “gotcha” rather than a system of support. Tandem is the tool I wish I had in my office and the transparency I’ll always want as a parent.

Technology should bridge gaps, not create them. My time working with SPED students taught me that context is everything; without context, chasms are created that are almost impossible to cross. When the speech pathologist, the teacher, and the admin all have different pieces of the story without understanding the whole narrative, it’s the student who gets lost . We built Tandem to work as the “shared brain” of the IEP team, taking the data out of silos, giving insights to every contributing team member, and making sure you can put systems to work for every child.
