Testimonial
My favorite piece of feedback after the EdTech Index launched:
Pardon my French, but this is fucking awesome. Honestly, this is one of the best looking, most intuitively navigable, and most useful tools I have ever seen in any context. This makes the daunting world of edapps completely digestible. Phenomenal. Job.
