For Investors
Canvas cannot do standards-based grading natively. Hologram can.
We are building the first K-12 learning platform on a mastery data model — not percentages with AI bolted on. Pre-seed stage, launching a 150-student pilot in Fall 2026.

Why this, why now.
The problem
Standards-based grading is the single most requested capability in K-12 EdTech. No major platform supports it natively because legacy LMS platforms store grades as percentages.
Why now
27 states have adopted competency-based education policies. AI makes real-time mastery tracking and Socratic tutoring economically viable for the first time.
The wedge
Hologram runs inside Canvas via LTI 1.3 — zero migration, zero IT overhaul. Teachers pilot it alongside their existing gradebook with one click.
The moat
A mastery data model is not a feature you bolt on. It is the foundation. Every interaction maps to learning standards, prerequisite graphs, and cognitive science. This architecture enables AI capabilities that percentage-based systems structurally cannot replicate.
Built by a solo technical founder with AI-augmented development.
Full-stack TypeScript monorepo. NestJS + Genkit AI orchestration backend, Next.js frontend, PostgreSQL with pgvector, Drizzle ORM, LTI 1.3, real-time sync via Zero. FERPA, COPPA, and GDPR compliant by architecture.
