Neocoast has been a product and software development partner for EdTech companies for more than 10 years, helping them build new platforms from scratch or scale the ones they already have.
More than 80% of our revenue comes from education platforms, and we've delivered 80+ projects for U.S. companies. We work across three areas of learning:
K-12: platforms used by districts, teachers and students, built for district adoption.
Higher Education: products for colleges, universities and the companies that serve them.
Workforce learning: training and job-skills platforms for adult learners and the organizations that train them.
Building education software takes a deep understanding of how the ecosystem works. We build with an outcomes-first focus: platforms that meet FERPA, COPPA and WCAG accessibility requirements, integrate with the tools schools and institutions already use (Canvas, Clever, OneRoster and district SIS), and are ready for district-wide rollouts and growth.
Our approach to AI is to add it where it improves outcomes. We also use it in our own work to deliver faster, raise quality and automate repetitive tasks, so your team has more time for strategic work.
Our team works in GMT-3, overlapping with U.S. business hours, and joins your workflows either as a dedicated team or through staff augmentation.
We don’t just build software. We build EdTech platforms that work within real education ecosystems, where integrations, compliance, and reliability are critical for adoption and growth.

Our Story
Neocoast started in Montevideo, Uruguay, in 2016 with a simple idea: great products come from teams that care about the outcome as much as the delivery.
We've grown into a team of 50+ across product, design, engineering, QA and AI.
Our work kept leading us to education, and today we build across K-12, Higher Education and workforce learning, reaching 5M+ students.
EdTech is now 80%+ of our revenue, and we know how districts, institutions and training programs actually work.
What Sets Us Apart
EdTech is our main focus
More than 80% of our revenue comes from education software across K-12, Higher Ed and workforce learning, so we already know how schools, institutions and training providers adopt technology.
Built for education ecosystems
We integrate with Canvas, Clever, OneRoster and district SIS, and we build for FERPA, COPPA and WCAG accessibility requirements from day one.
One team with yours
We work inside your workflows, overlapping with U.S. business hours, and many of our partnerships run for years.
Premier Verified means Clutch independently confirmed Neocoast is a legally registered business, has had its financial risk status checked (Creditsafe: Moderate Risk), and is backed by 25 verified client reviews averaging 4.9 stars.
