Stop Rekeying Transcripts Between PowerSchool, Banner, and Registrar's Desk

Registrar's offices lose hours every enrollment cycle to manual transcript checks, and advising staff burn entire weeks each spring re-keying scholarship PDFs into spreadsheets. A Build Pod embeds with your IT and registrar teams to automate the workflows already running through PowerSchool, Banner, Canvas, or Moodle instead of asking you to rip and replace your SIS. We build inside your existing data governance rules, log every access for FERPA audit trails, and hand your staff back the hours currently spent on manual data entry and status chasing.

What we build for Educational Institutions

  • Automated enrollment and transcript verification pulled straight from your SIS

    A Build Pod wires directly into PowerSchool or Banner to cross-check incoming transcripts against enrollment records, flagging discrepancies instead of leaving registrar staff to compare PDFs by hand.

  • AI grading and tutoring support embedded in Canvas or Moodle with FERPA logging

    We build grading-assist and tutoring tools that live inside your existing LMS, with every student data access logged and retained to your compliance office's FERPA standard.

  • Financial aid and scholarship PDF triage routed to the right advisor by deadline

    Incoming FAFSA and scholarship application PDFs get parsed automatically, matched to the correct advisor queue, and tracked against award deadlines so nothing sits unopened during peak season.

How a Build Pod fits

Most institutions we work with already have a SIS and LMS that work fine on their own — the gap is the manual glue between them: someone re-keying transcript data, someone chasing scholarship PDFs, someone exporting Canvas gradebooks into a compliance report. A Build Pod starts by mapping that glue work with your registrar, financial aid, and IT teams, then ships a working tool against one of those workflows within the first sprint so your staff can react to something real instead of a slide deck.

Because student data is involved, every integration goes through your existing access controls and data governance review before it touches production. We log access the way your compliance office already expects for FERPA, and we build against your current PowerSchool, Banner, Canvas, or Moodle instance rather than asking you to migrate systems mid-semester.

Frequently asked questions

Can you work within our FERPA compliance requirements and existing data governance policies?
Yes — every integration is scoped with your compliance or IT security office first, and we build audit logging into any tool that touches student records from day one.
Do you integrate with our current SIS and LMS, or do we need to switch systems?
We build against what you already run — PowerSchool, Banner, Canvas, Moodle, or another system — rather than requiring a migration.
Who owns the code and the integration once the engagement ends?
You do. The tools and integrations we build are handed over with source access, so your IT team can maintain or extend them independently.
