Digital Forward.
Human First.

Kiddom builds technology enabling teachers and learners to unlock their full potential.

Kiddom's journey

Years after graduation, the education industry brought two college roommates back together as Ahsan bootstrapped a math game for iOS devices and Abbas built his own digital gradebook to better meet the needs of his high school math students.

2015

Founded

Kiddom launches as a library of standards-aligned K-12 materials connected to a gradebook.

2017

Lesson planning

We redesigned the Kiddom experience and introduced a planner experience enabling teachers to save library resources for later.

2018

Admin dashboard

Kiddom Academy was introduced as a separate view for district and building administrators to gain visibility and access usage.

2020

Focused on HQIM

As teachers rapidly flocked to Kiddom to find standards-aligned materials, it became evident to the founders there was a bigger, nastier problem plaguing school systems: tech-enhanced High-Quality Instructional Materials become the solution.

2022

HQIM partners join

Kiddom expands with partnership with Open Up Resources, Odell, Core Knowledge Foundation, and OpenStax.

2023

Expansion continues

Illustrative Mathematics®, EL Education, OpenSciEd, Amira, Slooh, and Labster join the ranks of Kiddom.

2024

Building towards the future with AI

Kiddom innovates at the speed of technology. We introduced four new math-based AI features to streamline routine teacher tasks and more equitably serve student needs via digital assistant for feedback, lesson shortening, practice generation, and more.

Teachers are the answer

Nothing is more powerful that the relationships and connections teachers build with students. We created Kiddom to help teachers spend less time planning and grading so they can delivery exceptional lesson with a human touch.

HQIM blossoms, digitally

When Kiddom technology merges with HQIM, that's when the magic happens. Rich curricula becomes easier to navigate, assign, customize, and glean insights from.
