Research workflow tooling
New tools can emerge from unmet needs in researcher coordination, study operations, evidence capture, and day-to-day research support.
Products
Research products and lab-built platforms for education technology teams.
EdTechLab builds products from real research and operational problems. Each product starts with a specific need observed in education delivery, research workflow, or institutional practice.
Portfolio snapshot
- EngagedLab and intle are the two public products in the portfolio today.
- EngagedLab includes a hosted walkthrough, screenshots, and an internal case study; intle is summarised here with links to the live product and pricing.
- Additional lab products may still emerge from repeated researcher needs, pilot work, or strategic collaborations.
Product in focus
EngagedLab
EngagedLab is a public EdTechLab product focused on turning static teaching material into structured interactive labs with visible preview, export, and LMS delivery paths rather than stopping at presentation-only polish.
Live public product
Walkthrough added 11 March 2026
Internal case study published
Structured lab generation
Turns uploaded source material into a sequenced interactive lab rather than leaving teams to assemble each activity from scratch.
Preview before deployment
Shows the student-facing experience inside the workflow so quality checks happen before an LMS package is exported.
SCORM and Blackboard handoff
The current flow already exposes SCORM 1.2, SCORM 2004, and Blackboard-oriented packaging choices for teams working inside existing delivery environments.
Analytics-aware architecture
The product is being shaped with interaction structure, evidence quality, and institutional review in mind instead of treating analytics as a later add-on.
Current walkthrough
A visible path from source material to LMS-ready output.
The current clip shows the core EngagedLab flow in about 30 seconds: choose a source, generate the lab, inspect the structure, preview the learner experience, and export for LMS delivery.
- Choose a source file or generated starting point.
- Configure the lab structure and create the build.
- Inspect the sequenced lab and student preview.
- Export through SCORM or Blackboard-oriented packaging steps.
Walkthrough transcript summary
The video opens on the EngagedLab create flow with source material ready for a new lab build.
It then moves through generation settings, the structured editor, the student-facing preview, and the export menu with SCORM and Blackboard-oriented options.
The clip ends with the lab ready for review, packaging, and institutional delivery.
Product in focus
intle
intle turns a plain-English description (and optional PDF, DOCX, or PPTX sources) into interactive learning packages in about a minute: quizzes, scenarios, modules, and more, with SCORM 2004 and 1.2 export for Moodle, Blackboard, Canvas, Totara, and other compliant LMS environments.

SCORM 2004 + 1.2
WCAG 2.1 AA target
Nine content formats
One workflow covers quizzes, scenarios, modules, presentations, assessments, workshops, and related formats from a single description.
Host or export
Share a hosted link for instant access or download a SCORM package for your own LMS, matching how institutions prefer to govern delivery.
Section-level AI editing
Natural-language edits such as “make this harder” or “add a regulation reference” update individual sections without rebuilding the whole package.
Branded, audit-friendly output
Logo and colour branding keep exports on-brand for L&D and compliance teams who need defensible, consistent artefacts.
How teams use it
Describe the teaching need, review the interactive build, then deploy.
- Describe the learning outcome or upload source material.
- intle proposes structure, generates activities, and opens a preview-first editor.
- Publish a hosted link or export SCORM for your institutional LMS.
The public product site covers pricing tiers (including a free tier with watermarked output), roadmap notes, and live signup.
Portfolio context
intle complements EngagedLab by focusing on rapid multi-format authoring and SCORM handoff for broader L&D use cases, while EngagedLab continues to emphasise structured lab generation from teaching material with deep LMS export paths.
Lab pipeline
EdTechLab is built to support more than a single product line.
Analytics and infrastructure products
Repeated analytics, reporting, or experiment-delivery problems can inform future products and reusable systems where the need proves consistent enough.
Partnership-backed ventures
Collaboration with universities, institutions, and research teams can become the basis for future ventures when the problem is credible enough to deserve its own product.
Product philosophy
Useful, rigorous, and built for long-term value.
Problem-led
Products should solve a real research, learning, or operational problem before they ask for attention.
Privacy, accessibility, and governance addressed early
Privacy posture, accessibility expectations, and implementation quality are treated as design requirements rather than late-stage additions.
Analytics-aware
Good product design should make evidence, interpretation, and learning loops stronger rather than leaving analytics as an afterthought.
Built to evolve
Each product should be able to grow into a broader system rather than collapsing under its first successful use case.
