Edia's Game-Changing AI-Powered MTSS Platform for K-12 Schools
On May 28, 2025, Edia, a leader in AI-driven educational technology, unveiled its groundbreaking AI-Powered Multi-Tiered System of Supports (MTSS). This innovative platform is designed specifically for K-12 school districts to provide personalized support to every student, at scale. In recent years, schools have faced an alarming surge in issues like chronic absenteeism, dwindling academic performance, and an uptick in behavioral challenges. It is against this backdrop that Edia's MTSS platform seeks to make a significant impact.
Tackling the Challenges Facing Schools Today
The educational landscape has shifted dramatically following the Covid-19 pandemic. Schools across the nation are grappling with unprecedented challenges that require a fresh approach to support services. Many districts have data scattered across multiple platforms, hindering their ability to address the reasons behind students' struggles. Edia’s MTSS platform addresses this by consolidating data from attendance, behavior incidents, academic performance, and other relevant metrics into one cohesive system. This integration enables educators to quickly identify student needs and take actionable steps to provide the appropriate interventions.
Joe Philleo, CEO and Co-founder of Edia, emphasized the platform's mission: "Districts don't need another dashboard—they need tools that help them act. Our new MTSS platform uses AI to help school staff perform critical detective work, like identifying struggling students, diagnosing why they're off-track, and launching recommended interventions, all within minutes."
How the Edia MTSS Platform Works
The key to the Edia MTSS platform lies in its sophisticated technology that analyzes hundreds of data points to formulate a comprehensive support strategy for each student. Traditional educational systems often fail to correlate issues like low performance in subjects with behavioral incidents. For example, if a student struggles with math and frequently misses school, these two issues can be analyzed together to uncover patterns that may go unnoticed with isolated data sources.
Unified Student Profiles: The platform integrates Student Information Systems (SIS), Learning Management Systems (LMS), assessments, and family communications into a singular view. Educators gain immediate insights into the whole-child perspective, providing a comprehensive understanding of each student’s situation.
Root-Cause AI: The platform employs advanced AI to review attendance, grades, behavior, assessments, surveys, and notes. By identifying the underlying causes of student struggles, rather than just the symptoms, educators can provide tailored interventions that more effectively address issues.
Evidence-Based Library: Educators are supported with over 50 research-backed strategies and community resources tailored to the unique needs of each student, enhancing the chances of successful outcomes.
Multilingual Family Outreach: The platform ensures effective communication with families by engaging them in over 100 languages, thus reducing unexplained absences and strengthening home-school partnerships.

Automated Intervention Workflows: By generating Tier 1-3 intervention plans, assigning responsibilities, scheduling follow-ups, and tracking progress, the software allows staff to dedicate more time to student interaction rather than administrative tasks.
Availability and Future Vision
The new MTSS platform is now available to districts across the United States and can seamlessly integrate with major SIS, LMS, and assessment tools. This expansion of functionality aims to support K-12 institutions in their quest to mitigate the steep rise in absenteeism and maximize student success.
Edia, founded in the Silicon Valley in 2020, has positioned itself as a pioneer in AI-enhanced educational solutions, currently collaborating with over 130 districts nationwide.
