Best EdTech Platform
An ongoing list of education platforms and tools that measurably improve learning outcomes — not just digitized versions of a textbook.
What this offers
An outcomes-focused feature
We ask what evidence exists that learners actually learn better or faster.
K-12, higher ed, and workforce eligible
Any education stage or format is considered.
No cost to apply
Free to submit, free to be featured.
Rolling additions
The list updates continuously.
Who this is for
EdTech founders and educators who can point to a specific learning outcome their platform improves, and how.
How it works
- Submit your platform. The specific learning outcome you improve and any evidence for it.
- An editor evaluates it. We look for genuine pedagogical substance.
- If it fits, we follow up. A short round of questions before publishing.
- Your entry goes live. Added to the current list.
Rules & eligibility
- This is free to enter, and always will be — we never charge a submission fee.
- No age, location, industry, or follower-count requirement. Selection is about the work itself, not who you are.
- Submitting doesn't guarantee publication or a reply beyond the automatic confirmation — we get more submissions than we can feature, and we'd rather say that upfront than overpromise.
- One submission per person or company at a time. If it isn't selected, you're welcome to submit again later with something new.
- Selection is editorial, not a queue — we're not obligated to publish every submission, and we won't pad the list with entries that aren't ready.
How do I actually apply?
I describe the specific learning outcome my platform is designed to improve and what evidence — even informal, like teacher or learner feedback — supports that it works, rather than just listing features.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does it cost anything to submit?
No. It's free to submit to Best EdTech Platform, and free to be featured if selected. We don't charge for consideration, and we never will.
How long does it take to hear back?
If your submission is selected, you'll hear from an editor directly. If it isn't, we don't send a rejection notice — the volume we receive makes that impractical.
Can I submit on behalf of someone else?
Only with their knowledge and involvement — we want the real details, and that usually means hearing from the person or team directly.
What happens if I'm not selected?
Nothing gets published without being selected first. Unselected submissions simply aren't used, and you're welcome to submit again later.
Does this run every year?
Yes — Best EdTech Platform is evergreen. It runs all year, every year, with no deadline to catch.
Selection is editorial and unpaid on both sides — no one is charged to submit, and no one is paid for work we publish. Talmyn's editorial standards apply the same way here as everywhere else on the site. See can companies pay to appear in Talmyn's rankings or awards for the full answer.
