About Student First Technologies
We believe each child is unique and deserves access to high-quality education tailored to their gifts & talents. We build the technology that makes that possible at scale.
Our purpose
Software built for maximum impact — the guardrails programs need, the flexibility families love.
We believe every student deserves to learn in an environment suited to their gifts and talents — and the organizations making that possible deserve software built for maximum impact and efficiency.
We build Theodore — a purpose-built, white-labeled education funding platform for K–12. Cloud-based, secure, program-isolated platform architecture, configured to the exact legislation or rules of any program: State ESAs, Tax Credit Scholarships, microgrants, and managed spending.
Our why
We believe that efficient education funding programs can remedy many of the problems we see in society — by giving students from all walks of life access to learning opportunities their families could otherwise not afford.
Every child deserves access to quality education. And the groups supporting quality education choice deserve software and processes built to make it happen — with maximum impact and efficiency for the student.
Our guiding values
These are the values we hire for, build by, and hold each other to — the throughline behind every product decision and every conversation with a partner.

Designed for legislative compliance, programmatic reporting, and operational flexibility.
We are focused on education, but we are already getting requests for other sectors and use cases. Have an idea? Reach out.
