What is Klassruum for NGOs?

Klassruum is a browser-based, AI-assisted classroom platform that enables non-governmental organisations to deliver structured, engaging, and accessible education at scale. It was built from the ground up for the constraints that NGOs actually face: shared devices with limited processing power, intermittent internet connectivity, multilingual learner populations, and learners with a wide range of accessibility needs.

Unlike conventional LMS platforms designed for stable corporate or university networks, Klassruum works on Android tablets, Chromebooks, and low-end laptops. Its core classroom experience runs entirely in the browser, meaning there is no software to install and no app store dependency. A facilitator or teacher opens a browser, loads a lesson, and the session begins. Learners can join on any device with a modern browser — even a shared smartphone.

For NGOs, this means you can deploy a consistent, structured curriculum across dozens of sites without needing dedicated IT infrastructure at each one. Whether you are running adult literacy programmes in rural East Africa, vocational training for displaced populations in the Middle East, or supplementary schooling for out-of-school children in South Asia, Klassruum adapts to your context rather than demanding that your context adapt to it.

Delivering education in resource-constrained environments

The global education crisis is not primarily a content crisis — it is an access crisis. Over 244 million children and young people worldwide are out of school, and hundreds of millions more attend school but receive an education of insufficient quality. NGOs working in this space face structural barriers that commercial edtech rarely addresses: unreliable electricity, shared devices, learners who speak different languages in the same classroom, and facilitators who may not have formal teaching qualifications.

Low-cost hardware, full-featured classroom

Klassruum is deliberately optimised for the hardware your programmes already use. The platform loads quickly on devices with as little as 2 GB of RAM. The interface is clean and responsive, avoiding the heavy JavaScript bundles that slow down commodity tablets. Lessons are designed to function with minimal data transfer — a single session typically uses less than 5 MB of bandwidth. This means that even in areas where connectivity is limited to a 2G mobile data connection or a shared satellite link, the classroom stays functional.

Structured lessons, flexible delivery

Each lesson follows a clear pedagogical structure: the AI teacher introduces a concept, demonstrates it on a shared whiteboard, checks understanding through interactive questions, and captures notes automatically. This structure means that even when the facilitator is a trained community volunteer rather than a certified teacher, the learner experience remains consistent and effective. The facilitator's role is to guide the group, manage the physical space, and provide the human support that no technology can replace — while the platform handles the content delivery, scaffolding, and assessment.

Offline and low-bandwidth support

Internet access is not a given in the communities many NGOs serve. Klassruum supports offline lesson delivery so that learning does not stop when connectivity drops. Lessons can be pre-loaded when a connection is available, and learner progress is recorded locally. When the device next connects to the internet — whether that is hours or days later — progress syncs automatically to the cloud. This approach eliminates the fragile dependency on real-time connectivity that makes most cloud-based platforms unusable in rural and displacement settings.

Multilingual and accessibility-first design

Inclusion is not a feature checkbox — it is a design principle. Many NGO programmes serve communities where learners have diverse linguistic backgrounds, varying levels of literacy, and a wide range of physical and cognitive abilities. Klassruum is built to meet all of these needs within a single platform, rather than requiring separate tools or workarounds.

Multilingual classroom experience

Lessons can be delivered in any language. The AI teacher speaks and captions in the language of instruction, and the whiteboard renders text in the correct script and direction — whether that is Latin, Arabic, Devanagari, or any other writing system. For programmes that serve multilingual populations, such as refugee education where learners may speak Somali, Arabic, and Kurdish in the same classroom, Klassruum allows facilitators to switch the lesson language mid-session without losing progress or disrupting the learner experience.

Disability inclusion modes

Klassruum ships with built-in accessibility modes that adapt the classroom experience for learners with specific needs:

  • Deaf and hard-of-hearing mode: real-time captions for all AI teacher speech, visual indicators for audio cues, and full sign-language compatibility with the whiteboard layout.
  • Low-vision mode: high contrast colour schemes, enlarged text, and screen-reader compatibility for all interactive elements.
  • Dyslexia-friendly mode:adjusted fonts, spacing, and colour overlays that reduce visual stress and improve reading fluency.
  • Motor accessibility:full keyboard navigation and large tap targets for learners who use assistive devices or have limited fine motor control.

These modes are not separate product tiers — they are included for every organisation. An NGO serving a mixed population of learners with and without disabilities can activate the relevant mode for each learner or for the whole group without additional configuration or cost. This matters because disability inclusion in education should never be a budget line item that competes with other programme needs.

Supporting community education programmes

NGOs operate education programmes across an enormous range of contexts: accelerated learning for overage children who missed years of schooling, adult literacy and numeracy, vocational skills training, peace education, sexual and reproductive health education, and climate literacy, to name a few. Klassruum is designed to support all of these through a flexible content model and a facilitator-led pedagogy that works in both formal and non-formal settings.

Import your own curriculum

Klassruum does not lock you into a predefined content library. Organisations can import their own curriculum materials — PDFs, slide decks, text documents, images, and video — and the AI teacher turns them into interactive, whiteboard-driven lessons. This means that your organisation retains full control over what is taught and how it is framed. If your programme uses locally developed materials in Hausa, Khmer, or Portuguese, those materials work natively in the platform. You can also adapt existing open educational resources (OER) and restructure them into Klassruum's lesson format, saving weeks of content development time.

Facilitator-led, not facilitator-dependent

Many NGO education programmes rely on community facilitators rather than professionally trained teachers. This is a pragmatic reality: there are not enough qualified teachers in the regions where the need is greatest. Klassruum addresses this by embedding pedagogical structure into the platform itself. The AI teacher guides the lesson through a proven sequence — introduction, demonstration, practice, and reflection — while the facilitator manages the group, provides encouragement, and intervenes when a learner is struggling. This model allows organisations to train facilitators in hours rather than weeks, while still delivering a high-quality learning experience.

Group learning on shared devices

In many programme settings, devices are shared. A single tablet may serve a group of five to fifteen learners. Klassruum's classroom interface is designed for this reality. The AI teacher presents content on the shared screen, the facilitator manages discussion and participation, and the interactive elements (questions, whiteboard annotations, polls) are designed to work in a group setting where learners take turns engaging with the device. This is not a compromise — it is a pedagogical choice. Group learning with a facilitator often produces better outcomes than isolated device use, particularly for younger learners and those with lower baseline literacy.

Capacity building and facilitator training

Technology is only as effective as the people who use it. Klassruum includes a lightweight capacity-building programme designed specifically for NGO contexts. The goal is not to turn facilitators into software operators — it is to give them the confidence and skills to use the platform as a tool for better teaching.

Rapid onboarding

Most facilitators can be productive on the platform within a single training session. The interface is intentionally simple: load a lesson, start the session, manage the group. The AI teacher handles content delivery, pacing, and formative assessment. Facilitators learn to navigate the lesson library, activate accessibility modes, and interpret basic learner progress data. For organisations deploying at scale, Klassruum provides train-the-trainer materials that your own programme staff can adapt and deliver in local languages.

Ongoing support

Beyond initial training, Klassruum provides in-platform guidance and a help centre with articles, videos, and troubleshooting guides. Programme managers can access usage dashboards to identify facilitators who may need additional support, and the Klassruum team is available for implementation consultations, particularly during the launch phase of a new programme.

Measuring impact and demonstrating outcomes

Demonstrating impact is not optional for NGOs — it is a requirement. Funders, donors, and institutional partners expect evidence that education programmes are producing measurable learning outcomes. Klassruum generates this evidence automatically through its activity-based progress tracking system.

What gets tracked

Every learner interaction on the platform generates structured data. This includes lesson completion rates, time-on-task, responses to interactive questions, whiteboard engagement, note-taking activity, and progression through curriculum milestones. The system also tracks accessibility mode usage, giving organisations evidence on inclusion outcomes. All of this data is available through programme-level dashboards that can be filtered by site, cohort, learner demographic, and time period.

Reporting for funders

Klassruum's dashboards are designed to speak the language of donors. You can generate reports that show learning gain over time, compare outcomes across programme sites, and produce the kind of evidence that satisfies both bilateral donors (USAID, DFID, EU DevCo) and private foundations. Reports can be exported in standard formats for inclusion in grant reports and programme reviews. This eliminates the manual data collection and spreadsheet analysis that consumes programme staff time and often produces unreliable results.

Data-driven programme improvement

Impact data is not just for external reporting — it is a tool for programme improvement. When you can see that learners in a particular site are struggling with a specific concept, or that engagement drops off after a certain lesson length, you can adjust your approach. Klassruum gives programme managers the granular data they need to make evidence-based decisions about curriculum sequencing, facilitator support, and resource allocation — without requiring a dedicated M&E team to process raw data.

GDPR compliance and beneficiary data protection

NGOs that serve vulnerable populations — refugees, displaced persons, minors, survivors of conflict — have an elevated duty of care when it comes to data protection. A data breach at an education programme is not an inconvenience; it can put lives at risk. Klassruum takes this responsibility seriously and has been designed with data protection as a foundational requirement, not an afterthought.

How Klassruum protects beneficiary data

  • Minimal data collection: the platform collects only the data necessary for educational delivery and progress tracking. No unnecessary personal information is gathered.
  • Encryption at rest and in transit: all learner data is encrypted using industry-standard AES-256 encryption at rest and TLS 1.3 in transit.
  • Role-based access control: facilitators see only the data relevant to their groups. Programme managers see aggregated data. Individual learner data is restricted to authorised staff with a documented need.
  • Data portability and deletion: organisations can export all programme data at any time and request complete deletion of beneficiary data in line with GDPR Article 17 (right to erasure).
  • Data processing agreements: Klassruum provides standard Data Processing Agreements (DPAs) that meet GDPR Article 28 requirements, suitable for inclusion in your donor compliance documentation.

For organisations working under specific national data protection frameworks (such as Kenya's Data Protection Act 2019 or Nigeria's NDPR), Klassruum's data practices are designed to be compatible with these regulations as well. If your programme operates in a jurisdiction with specific requirements, our team can work with you to ensure configuration aligns with your compliance obligations.

Cost-effective scaling across programmes and geographies

NGOs rarely have the luxury of unlimited budgets. Every dollar spent on technology infrastructure is a dollar not spent on direct service delivery. Klassruum is designed to maximise the educational impact per dollar spent on technology, and to scale efficiently as programmes grow.

No per-learner licensing

Many edtech platforms charge per learner per month. This pricing model penalises NGOs for success — the more learners you reach, the more you pay. Klassruum uses a different approach. Pricing is structured around programme scope and organisation size, not individual learner counts. This means you can scale from 50 learners to 5,000 without watching your licence costs spiral. It also means you do not have to make difficult decisions about which learners to count and which to exclude from your platform deployment.

Shared infrastructure, dedicated support

Klassruum runs on shared cloud infrastructure, which keeps costs low while maintaining enterprise-grade reliability and security. Your data is logically isolated from other organisations, and your programme has dedicated support from the Klassruum team. As you expand to new sites or new countries, the platform scales with you — there is no additional infrastructure to procure, no new servers to configure, no new software to install.

Reuse and adapt across programmes

Curriculum materials created in Klassruum are reusable. If you develop a nutrition education module for one programme in Kenya, you can adapt and redeploy it for a similar programme in Tanzania with minimal effort. This reduces duplication of effort across your organisation and ensures that successful content development investments pay dividends across multiple programmes and years.

Partnerships and collaboration

Klassruum is not a standalone product in isolation. We actively seek partnerships with NGOs, INGOs, government education agencies, multilateral organisations, and technology providers to expand the reach and impact of the platform. Our partnership model is designed to be flexible and responsive to the needs of each organisation.

Implementation partnerships

For organisations launching new education programmes, Klassruum offers implementation partnership arrangements. This includes co-design of the deployment plan, facilitator training, curriculum integration support, and ongoing technical assistance during the critical first months of a programme. We have found that organisations that receive structured implementation support in the first three months achieve significantly higher adoption rates and better learning outcomes than those left to self-deploy.

Research and evaluation partnerships

We collaborate with academic institutions and research organisations to evaluate the impact of Klassruum-supported education programmes. These partnerships produce independent evidence on effectiveness, which benefits both the participating NGO (through credible impact evidence) and the broader education sector (through published research). If your organisation is interested in rigorous evaluation of your programme outcomes, we can help design the data collection framework and provide platform data to support the analysis.

Technology and content partnerships

Klassruum integrates with the tools and content ecosystems that NGOs already use. We support integration with common student information systems, single sign-on providers, and content repositories. We also work with open educational resource providers to ensure that high-quality openly licensed content is available within the platform. If your organisation has specific integration needs, the Klassruum team can discuss bespoke arrangements.

Mission-aligned pricing with NGO discounts

Klassruum offers dedicated pricing for non-profit organisations, humanitarian agencies, and government-funded education programmes. We understand that NGO budgets are constrained, often funded by grants with strict cost ceilings, and subject to audit requirements. Our pricing is transparent, predictable, and designed to work within these realities.

What the NGO pricing includes

  • Full access to the platform, including all accessibility modes, AI teacher, whiteboard, progress tracking, and facilitator tools.
  • Unlimited lessons and learners within your programme scope — no per-learner charges.
  • Implementation support and facilitator training for new programmes.
  • Ongoing technical support and platform updates.
  • Data processing agreements and GDPR compliance documentation.

We also offer multi-year pricing for organisations that can commit to longer programme horizons, which further reduces the annual cost. For smaller organisations or pilot programmes, we offer entry-level pricing that scales up as your programme grows.

Getting started with Klassruum

Launching a Klassruum-powered education programme is straightforward. Here is the typical process from initial conversation to first classroom session:

  1. 1Discovery call: we discuss your programme context, learner population, device environment, connectivity constraints, and curriculum needs. This typically takes 30 to 45 minutes.
  2. 2Pilot planning: we agree on a pilot scope — typically one site, 20 to 50 learners, and a 4 to 6 week timeframe. We configure your Klassruum environment and upload your initial curriculum materials.
  3. 3Facilitator training: your facilitators receive hands-on training, either in person or remotely. Most facilitators are comfortable with the platform after a single session.
  4. 4Pilot delivery: the programme runs its pilot. The Klassruum team provides active support during this phase, troubleshooting issues and helping refine the deployment approach.
  5. 5Review and scale: at the end of the pilot, we review outcomes data together and plan the scale-up to additional sites and larger learner populations.

Frequently asked questions

Can Klassruum work without internet?

Yes. Klassruum supports offline lesson delivery. Facilitators can pre-load lessons when a connection is available, and learner progress is recorded locally on the device. When connectivity resumes, progress syncs automatically to the cloud. This makes the platform viable in areas with intermittent or no internet access.

What devices are supported?

Any device with a modern web browser. This includes Android tablets, Chromebooks, Windows and macOS laptops, and iOS devices. The platform is optimised for low-cost Android tablets and performs well on devices with as little as 2 GB of RAM. No app installation is required.

How does the AI teacher work?

The AI teacher is a structured lesson delivery system built into the classroom. It follows a pedagogical sequence — concept introduction, demonstration on the whiteboard, interactive practice, and reflection. It speaks, captions, and adapts to the selected language. It is not a general-purpose chatbot; it is specifically designed for structured educational delivery.

Can we use our own curriculum materials?

Absolutely. Klassruum allows you to import your own curriculum materials in multiple formats. The AI teacher adapts these materials into interactive lessons. You retain full control over content and can modify, update, or replace materials at any time.

Is Klassruum GDPR compliant?

Yes. Klassruum is designed with GDPR compliance as a foundational requirement. We provide Data Processing Agreements, encryption at rest and in transit, role-based access control, and full data portability and deletion capabilities. For organisations working under other data protection frameworks, our team can help ensure configuration aligns with your specific compliance obligations.

What accessibility features are included?

Klassruum includes built-in modes for deaf and hard-of-hearing learners, low-vision learners, learners with dyslexia, and learners with motor accessibility needs. These modes are included for all organisations at no additional cost. You can read more on our accessibility features page.

How much does it cost for NGOs?

Klassruum offers dedicated pricing for non-profit organisations that is significantly below commercial rates. Pricing is structured around programme scope, not per-learner counts, so your costs remain predictable as you scale. Multi-year commitments receive additional discounts. Visit our pricing page for details, or contact us for a tailored quote.

Can we pilot before committing?

Yes. We encourage all NGO partners to run a pilot before full deployment. A typical pilot runs 4 to 6 weeks with 20 to 50 learners at one site. The pilot includes implementation support, facilitator training, and a structured review at the end. This gives you evidence-based confidence that Klassruum works for your specific context before you commit to a larger rollout.
