Description

The company's one-way messaging application ensures the privacy of phone numbers while allowing teachers to send reminders, homework, and group pictures to parents by creating a virtual classroom. Knit aims to enhance the human element of teaching by enabling every teacher to share more with their students and parents in a simple and teacher-centric way. The company recognizes that while technology can be an enabler, it cannot replace the critical role of a teacher in education.
