Q: How does Panorama protect student data?

Panorama does not market, sell, or rent student data to third parties, nor do they use student data to train public AI models. All data belongs entirely to the school districts using the platform. Panorama is FERPA-, COPPA-, and SOC 2 Type II-compliant, protecting student data at every step.

Brand Basics

Panorama Education is the leading platform for student insight and action in K-12 education. Panorama partners with districts and states to serve more than 15 million students across 25,000 schools and 2,000 districts nationwide.

By connecting academics, attendance, behavior, and engagement in a unified solution, Panorama gives educators the full picture of every student. With AI grounded in district context, educators can quickly understand what’s happening, why it matters, and what to do next—so they can take faster, more effective action across instruction, student support, special education, and graduation pathways.

This leads to higher student achievement and better preparation for life beyond the classroom. Backed by secure, research-based technology and hands-on professional development, Panorama is how the modern school system drives student success.

Company History

Aaron Feuer founded Panorama Education in 2012, while still an undergraduate at Yale University, alongside Alexander Tanner and David Carel. Their goal was to tangibly improve student outcomes.

After graduating in 2013, the founders developed the business in Y Combinator and raised their first $4 million round in the same year. In 2017, Panorama closed a $16 million round of Series B funding, led by Emerson Collective. In 2021, Panorama closed a $60 million Series C round, led by General Atlantic.

The Panorama team has steadily built its product suite, starting with the launch of Panorama Surveys in 2012. The company then launched Panorama Student Success in 2017. In 2023, Panorama acquired Mesa Cloud, now known as Panorama Pathways. 2024 marked the launch of Panorama Solara, and in 2025, Panorama acquired Class Companion.
