Built by People Who Understand Education and Compliance
Compliance Pod was created by a team with decades of experience in EdTech, compliance, and facilities management. We've worked with hundreds of schools, MATs, and colleges, and know what it takes to deliver software that solves real-world problems.
Our Story
Working in the sector, being intimately familiar with all the solutions available, we knew that the operational management tools available to multi-site educational organisations were not fit for purpose, for a variety of reasons.
We felt that if we started from scratch, applying the latest technology and focusing on a whole organisation / MAT native approach, we could build something that would really work for modern providers.
We started work in 2020 and launched Compliance Pod in late 2022 with a development group of FE colleges, MATs, and schools. The system underwent an intensive, 3-year iterative design process in the real world ahead of its general release in September 2025.
Working in partnership with public organisations such as Leigh Academies Trust, St Clare CMAT, Blackpool and Fylde FE College, Myerscough FE College, City of Westminster FE College, and private providers like Dukes Education enabled us to develop a highly flexible, configurable solution, purpose-built to meet the diverse needs of both large, complex multi-site providers and small individual schools.
Having taken the time to conduct thorough research, development and testing across the sector, we understand that you need flexible, easy to use tools at an affordable price and that knowledge guides everything we do.
Our team previously founded and sold two EdTech businesses to private equity investors. We've seen the inside, and we are doing things differently this time.
Our goal isn't to scale fast and sell or to squeeze maximum profits out of schools and colleges. We're independent, we don't have equity investors, and we don't want any.
Our focus is on enabling education providers to manage estates and compliance simply, affordably, and transparently. That means building software that's easy to use, backed by people who care, and priced in a way that reflects our values, not investor demands.
