Problem
Catholic schools often struggle with administrative overload, leaving teachers with excessive grading and families juggling multiple apps, which can push faith formation to the background. This inefficiency risks losing students to screen-first schools that prioritize results over holistic development.
Solution
Claritas.school offers a suite of three AI-driven tools tailored for Catholic schools. Beacon provides a safe AI environment for students and teachers, preventing essay writing and protecting data privacy. TeacherAIde captures classroom activity, anonymizes it, and gives teachers insights into each student's progress. ParentPoint centralizes school communication, from calendars to sign-ups, making it easier for families to stay engaged and for principals to monitor school-wide trends and family involvement.
Target Audience
Primary users are Catholic school teachers, principals, and families, particularly those in K-8 settings seeking to integrate technology without compromising faith-based education.
