Problem
Principals often lack the time and tools to capture detailed classroom observations, leading to missed evidence, inconsistent feedback, and difficulty aligning teacher evaluations with district priorities.
Solution
RefynED offers a leadership platform that integrates directly into principals’ existing workflows, enabling them to record classroom video, audio, and artifacts in real time. The system automatically timestamps evidence, identifies speakers, and supports translation, reducing reliance on memory. Collected data are aligned with custom rubrics (e.g., Danielson, LIFT) and district initiatives, providing AI‑assisted calibration and evidence‑gap detection. A unified dashboard presents evaluation quality metrics, evidence alignment scores, and consistency reports, allowing leaders to review, calibrate, and act on observations before finalizing ratings. The modular design lets districts activate additional capabilities such as goal tracking, student growth monitoring, and compliance reporting as their evaluation systems evolve.
Target Audience
Primary customers are K‑12 school districts and their principals who need a scalable solution for classroom observation, evaluation calibration, and consistent implementation of district initiatives.
