Fifteen Growing EdTech Companies Join National Collective to Personalize Learning

LEAP Innovations is thrilled to unveil the 2025–2026 EDInnovators Collective—a cohort of forward-thinking education technology companies revolutionizing classrooms with cutting-edge tools and transformative ideas. This year’s Collective reflects a bold leap forward, featuring a diverse group of organizations committed to advancing personalized learning, with a special emphasis on AI-powered solutions joining the collective.

In service of transforming the learning experience, the EDInnovators Collective strengthens LEAP’s mission to ensure that every student has the tools needed to thrive in the future. These organizations have undergone an evaluation process to meet LEAP’s standards for personalized learning, aligned to our learning frameworks. Each selected company has earned the EDInnovator Collective Certification, signaling their commitment to reshaping the educational experience for students and educators nationwide by providing tools that support educators’ ability to personalize learning and engage all students.

This is an extraordinary time for education technology. Advances in AI and personalized learning are creating opportunities we could only imagine a decade ago. Through the EDInnovator Collective, we are building that future together—with innovators, educators, and students leading the way. Congratulations to this year’s Collective for lighting the path forward.

— Dr. Ann M. Chavez, President, Strategic Growth & Partnerships, LEAP Innovations

The EDInnovator Collective is rooted in the LEAP Learning Framework™ and District Convergence Framework, both guide schools and districts toward creating personalized, equitable, and engaging learning experiences. As part of the EDInnovators Collective Membership, these companies will have the unique opportunity to gain valuable feedback and pilot their tools in classrooms from Cohort 9 & 10 of LEAP’s Pilot Network and build connections with LEAP’s Modern Learning Network and AI Education Network reaching over 15 states and 5,000+ educators. This new cohort of innovators marks the second year of the collective, after being named a Chicago Innovation Awards finalist in the inaugural year.

Together with these 15 exceptional companies, LEAP is helping to open new doors for engagement, growth, and success in classrooms nationwide.
