AR Solutions for
Education & E-Learning

Most AR education pitches get built for an iPad demo and quietly fail on the Chromebook cart every classroom actually owns. We start from your device fleet, not the other way around — then layer augmented reality content on top of what will genuinely run.

What Actually Runs on the Devices Your School Owns

This is the question every education AR pitch skips, and it's the one that decides whether the tool gets used past the pilot. Camera-based AR needs specific hardware support — a lot of school-issued devices don't have it.

If your fleet is mostly Chromebooks, WebAR plus a small shared set of tablets for hands-on activities is usually the realistic path, not a full 1:1 native app.

WHAT
WE
BUILD

What We Build for Classrooms, Labs & Districts

Most programs pair one core AR experience with a lighter WebAR version, so nobody's left out by their device.

01 / Social Studies & History

Virtual Field Trips

Explore historical sites, ecosystems, or the solar system in the classroom, without the cost or logistics of an actual trip.

WebAR360° / 3D

02 / Science

STEM Lab Simulations

Run chemistry reactions, dissections, or physics demonstrations that are too costly, hazardous, or logistically hard to do live.

ARKitARCore

03 / Reading & Language

Interactive Coursework & Flashcards

Textbook pages and vocabulary cards trigger 3D models, pronunciation, and interactive quizzes when scanned.

Marker-BasedVuforia

04 / Special Education

Accessibility & Adaptive Learning

Visual and interactive overlays that support different learning needs, built to work alongside assistive technology, not around it.

Adaptive UISection 508

05 / Language Learning

AR Vocabulary & Immersion

Point a device at real objects in the room to trigger vocabulary, pronunciation, and sentence practice in the target language.

Object RecognitionMobile

06 / Higher Ed & Campus

Campus & Museum Wayfinding

Indoor AR navigation and exhibit information for university campuses, science centers, and student orientation programs.

SCHOOL
PROCUREMENT

Built Around How Schools Actually Have to Buy

Three requirements that show up in almost every K-12 or district procurement conversation, regardless of subject.

Student Privacy

FERPA & COPPA by Default

Minimal data collection, no behavioral advertising, and consent flows built into onboarding for any student under 13 — not bolted on after a district asks.

Standards Alignment

Mapped to What's Already Taught

Content tagged to frameworks like NGSS or your state's standards, since review committees routinely reject tools that can't show curriculum fit.

LMS Integration

Grades Sync, Not a Separate Login

LTI-standard integration with Canvas, Google Classroom, and Schoology so completion and scores flow into gradebooks teachers already use.

ACADEMIC
CALENDAR

Timing It to the Academic Calendar

Unlike most industries, the buying window here isn't flexible — districts adopt new tools at semester boundaries, not whenever development happens to finish.

  1. Late Winter

    Scope & Content Build

    Curriculum mapping and 3D content creation start, so build time doesn't eat into the summer training window.

  2. Early Summer

    Pilot & Teacher Training

    A small pilot group of classrooms tests the tool and teachers get trained before the pressure of an active semester.

  3. Fall Semester

    Building or Grade-Level Launch

    Full rollout to the pilot's building or grade level, timed to the semester start when adoption is highest.

  4. Following Year

    District-Wide Scale

    Budget for wider rollout gets approved off pilot-year results, expanding to additional schools or the full district.

TIMELINE

Cost & Timeline by Project Type

Ranges based on projects we've delivered — final scope depends on subject depth, device mix, and how much LMS integration is needed.

Single-Subject AR App

$20K – $45K

3-4 months

  • One subject or field trip
  • WebAR + native option
  • Basic progress tracking

STEM Simulation Lab

$40K – $85K

4-7 months

  • Multiple experiments/units
  • Standards-aligned content
  • ARKit + ARCore

District-Wide Platform

$70K – $150K

6-10 months

  • LMS/LTI integration
  • Multi-school content system
  • Teacher dashboard

3D content creation is scoped separately, typically $5K–$25K depending on subject complexity and number of models. Full breakdown on the AR development page

TESTIMONIALS
Our Work
Speaks For Us

Dr. Helen Park

Curriculum Director · STEM Academy

Our anatomy AR module replaced half our plastic models. Students explore structures in 3D on iPads, and instructors finally have something that matches how they teach — not a one-off demo.

Marcus Ellison

L&D Lead · Industrial Safety Training

We needed equipment lockout drills without shutting down the floor. Tech Reforms built guided AR overlays trainees follow on phones. Completion tracking ties into our LMS without a separate tool.

Sofia Alvarez

Founder · EdTech Hybrid Learning

Remote students were missing hands-on labs. The WebXR lab sims give them the same practice flow as campus cohorts — no headset purchase required for the pilot.

James Okonkwo

Dean of Engineering · Polytechnic Institute

They started with one mechanical assembly module, proved retention gains in a semester pilot, then we expanded. That curriculum-first approach is why faculty actually adopted it.

FAQ

Frequently Asked
Questions

A single-subject app like a virtual field trip or interactive coursework module typically costs $20,000–$45,000 over 3–4 months. A STEM simulation lab covering multiple experiments or units runs $40,000–$85,000 over 4–7 months. A district-wide platform with LMS integration and multi-school content management generally costs $70,000–$150,000 over 6–10 months.
Most Chromebooks can't run camera-based AR through ARKit or ARCore the way iPads and Android tablets can, but they can run WebAR experiences in the browser at a simpler level, and non-AR 3D content works fine. If your fleet is mostly Chromebooks, we typically design around WebAR or recommend a small set of shared tablets for the AR-specific activities.
Yes. We build to FERPA requirements for any tool touching education records, and to COPPA when students are under 13, which means no behavioral advertising, minimal data collection, and parental or school consent flows built into onboarding rather than added later.
Yes. We integrate with LMS platforms through LTI standards so assignments, completion status, and scores sync back automatically instead of living in a separate app teachers have to check independently.
For K-12 procurement, yes, almost always — we map content to the standards your district already teaches to, such as Next Generation Science Standards or state-specific frameworks, since unaligned content is a common reason review committees reject a tool.
Start development in late winter or early spring. A 3–4 month build finishing in early summer leaves time for teacher training and a pilot run before the fall semester, which is when most districts are willing to adopt something new.
