Selected work
01 / In practiceEvery project starts with a problem that matters. Here’s what happens when the right technology meets the right understanding.
01 / AI · Faculty credentialing
A clearer path from faculty credentials to confident qualification decisions, with AI-assisted review and an auditable record.
Credential analysis, qualification mapping, and compliance reporting come together in a single workspace. Faculty and reviewers can follow each decision, while leadership gets a consistent view of institutional readiness.

02 / Data · Academic strategy
Academic performance, labor-market demand, and peer benchmarks in one decision-making workspace.
The platform connects program performance with external evidence, including labor-market demand and the competitive landscape. Leaders can explore individual programs or compare the portfolio as a whole, with shared evidence for program review.

03 / Platform · Strategic assessment
A living view of educational progress, connecting day-to-day work to a ten-year strategic vision.
Multi-stakeholder dashboards organize progress across educational bands and strategic goals. Teams can see their contribution, and leadership can follow institutional impact in a single view.

04 / Platform · Partner relationships
Relationships, site agreements, and automated workflows for a national network of education partners.
A shared workspace connects site relationships, faculty assignments, and the agreement lifecycle. Letter of Intent workflows move from first contact through fully executed agreement with fewer manual handoffs.

05 / Data · Teaching & learning
Years of student feedback made useful, with faculty self-service and a consistent view across changing instruments.
A common concept layer connects legacy and current evaluation instruments so faculty can explore meaningful trends over time. Individual and bulk PDF reports support review, with anonymity-preserving thresholds built into the experience.

What we do
02 / Our capabilitiesOne connected partnership, from the first strategic question to the systems your team relies on every day.
Software shaped around your people, your processes, and the way your institution works.
Bring scattered data into focus with dashboards, analytics, and evidence your team can act on.
Put AI to work in credential reviews, document workflows, and the repetitive tasks that slow your team down.
Connect the systems you already use with secure infrastructure, reliable deployments, and modern identity.
A senior thinking partner for technology decisions, vendor evaluation, and your next stage of digital growth.
Thoughtful instructional design and online course development, grounded in how people actually learn.
A specific challenge in mind? That’s a good place to start.
Talk it through with usOur approach
03 / From idea to everydaySmall teams. Short feedback loops. Working software early, with a shared understanding of what comes next.
Start with the people doing the work. Map the real problem, constraints, and what success should look like.
Shape the experience, data, and integrations together. Make the important decisions before the build.
Get working software into your hands early. Refine it through regular reviews and real-world feedback.
Launch with documentation and monitoring, then keep improving as your needs grow.
Whether you’re finding the problem, ready to build, or improving what’s already live.
Turn an open question into a clear, actionable plan for what to build and why.
A custom platform, designed around your team and delivered from first concept to launch.
Reliable support and thoughtful improvements as your platform and your organization evolve.
Clear scope. Transparent proposals. No per-seat REDTech licenses. Timelines are tailored to your project.

The studio
REDTech is led by Justin Rose, a technologist and higher education leader who builds the kinds of systems he uses every day. That perspective connects institutional strategy with the details that make software useful.
You work directly with the person designing and building your platform. A deliberate scope keeps the work personal, the communication clear, and the focus on your team.

A few practical things
Some things you may be wondering before we get started.
Ask us something elseStart with a 30-minute conversation about your goals and what is getting in the way. If the scope needs more definition, a short discovery sprint produces a workflow map, an architecture memo, and a scoped build proposal.
You do. Code lives in your repositories, infrastructure runs in your cloud account, and your organization owns the data and domains. There are no REDTech seat licenses or shared tenancy.
Yes. Engagements can pair with your developers, IT staff, data team, and the people who will use the software. Integrations are scoped around your existing systems, with documentation to help your team maintain the result.
Security is part of the architecture: SSO through your identity provider, least-privilege access, audit logging, and data in your cloud environment. Privacy and compliance requirements, including FERPA where applicable, are scoped explicitly with your team.
Discovery is fixed-fee and credited toward the build. Platform builds use a project-based proposal with a defined scope and price. Ongoing support is a monthly retainer sized to the platform. Hosting and third-party services are separate from REDTech fees.
Launch includes documentation and a 30-day warranty. An ongoing partnership can cover monitoring, maintenance, priority improvements, and incident support. The scope and support expectations are agreed on together.
Let’s make something useful
Bring the challenge. We’ll bring curiosity, experience, and a practical place to start.
