Reason 1

Students Love Wayfinder

Most SEL products receive poor feedback from students, but students love Wayfinder because it's designed with their input.

Wayfinder's curriculum is co-designed with students: we cover relevant and pressing topics like social media and entrepreneurship in fun and relatable ways.

Because Wayfinder is one of the only SEL providers that started with high school before expanding to lower grades, we know how to make SEL relevant and engaging for even the most hard-to-reach students.

Wayfinder gets students excited about their futures with lessons that teach durable, in-demand career skills and encourage career exploration through a partnership with Roadtrip Nation.

Reason 2

Our Simple Interface Makes Implementation Easy

Leave behind the headaches and disappointments of your legacy SEL platforms.

Wayfinder's interface is modeled after the digital products you use and love most, making navigation easy and intuitive.

Our product was originally designed at the Stanford d.school and continues to be led by a world-class team with direct experience using tech tools in the classroom.

Merge Wayfinder seamlessly into existing systems thanks to LTI integration with all major Learning Management Systems like Canvas, Google Classroom, and Schoology.
