What Linewize does

Linewize is a cloud-based K-12 student digital safety and wellbeing platform that operates as the education-focused B2B division of the Qoria group. The platform unifies three pillars — Prevention & Enablement, Early Detection & Intervention, and Education & Engagement — through products including Linewize Filter (content-aware hybrid web filtering with page-level content analysis and real-time image/video blurring), Classwize (in-classroom device and screen management), Linewize Monitor (digital threat detection combining AI evaluation with 24/7 human moderation for self-harm, bullying, grooming, and violence risks), EdTech Manager (EdTech usage analytics), Linewize Pulse (student wellbeing check-ins and analytics), and the Qustodio Parent App for parental supervision of school-issued devices at home. Underlying capabilities include NLP-based webpage content analysis, computer vision for image scanning across Microsoft OneDrive and Google Drive, multimodal anomaly detection, and content-aware filtering with offline Chromebook monitoring support. The platform targets K-12 public, private, and Catholic school districts via direct enterprise field sales to IT directors, safeguarding staff, and superintendents, complemented by a tiered Reseller/VAR/MSP partner program, and by free trial offerings (30-day Student Safety Audit, 2-week EdTech Audit) for product-led growth. Revenue is generated through annual and multi-year SaaS subscriptions sold at the district level, with multi-product bundles and add-on modules (Content-aware Module, Cloud Scan, Linewize Parent, Online Safety Hub, Parent Webinars, Student Courses) expanding account value.
