About Glimpse K12

Background

Glimpse K12 by LevelData is an education management platform helping school districts optimize budgets around what's working for students. Their AIM platform analyzes school spending in the context of student achievement, enabling administrators to make data-driven decisions about school spending.

The Challenge

When we began working with Glimpse K12 in September 2022, their product development cycle was low and their R&D costs were too high to offset a profitable outcome. They wanted to provide school districts with a platform that allowed them to accurately track and manage their education return on investment (eROI). However, this proved to be a challenging feat without a bigger team of dedicated developers.

Our Solution

To ensure Glimpse K12 could continue its efforts of innovating in the EdTech space in less time, we quickly vetted, hired and onboarded full-stack remote engineers in a time zone favorable to the rest of their product team. Other vendors with similar price ranges are located in Eastern Europe and Asia, making communication difficult and slowing down operations. Plus, our process doesn’t stop at hiring. We stayed in constant communication with the Glimpse K12 team and their new remote developers to ensure a smooth blend into the company’s operations—increasing retention and boosting team collaboration.

The Result

We provided Glimpse K12 with high-quality engineers with solid English-speaking communication skills at 60% of the cost, allowing synchronous communication that increased satisfaction from the company’s product team. The EdTech also experienced a 40% reduction in R&D costs and a 30% faster development cycle with their new Latin American team members.  We ensure both remote engineers and companies learn about each other’s cultures to boost engagement and strengthen everyone’s sense of belonging to reduce culture shocks that often result in high turnover rates.

“Instead of working with companies fully automating the recruiting process, Mismo’s focus on the human touch confirmed our new engineers were properly vetted and onboarded.”

The Future With Mismo

We ensure teams welcome top developers who will easily adapt to the fast pace of today’s startup environment and blend in with the company culture. Our team forms a close-knit relationship with clients so we can understand their needs in order to meet them. When working remotely, communication is key, so we offer an outstanding customer experience through our clients’ preferred communication channels to deliver timely results with a hassle-free approach.
