Rocas Tech

What Rocas Tech does

Rocas Tech is a private Brazilian education technology company headquartered in São Paulo that designs, integrates, and resells digital learning solutions for educational institutions, corporations, and government agencies in Brazil. Its portfolio spans nine distinct products: D2L Brightspace (customized LMS implementation), Elos (virtual classroom), Intuitivo (teacher assessment), Fantásticos (BNCC-aligned gamified Portuguese literacy for grades 1-5), Ubbu (coding/STEAM for ages 6-12), Speechace (AI pronunciation evaluation), POK (blockchain verifiable credentials), ReadSpeaker TTS integration, and Nick Academy (Nickelodeon's gamified K-12 platform, distributed exclusively in Brazil via Rocas Tech). Underlying technology combines bespoke web-based VLE development, multi-LMS customization across D2L, Moodle, and Canvas, AI-driven speech evaluation, and blockchain-based credentialing.

The firm operates a hybrid business model combining project-based professional services (custom software development, D2L Brightspace customization, content production, LMS integration and migration), recurring subscriptions (Fantásticos, POK, custom LXP for corporate universities), and licensing/royalties (Nick Academy Brazil distribution, ReadSpeaker integration). It sells through a consultative enterprise field-sales motion with discovery sessions, supplemented by a channel-partner strategy leveraging its status as the official Nick Academy representative in Brazil, certified D2L partner, and integrator for ReadSpeaker and Speechace. Customer concentration is diversified across higher education (São Camilo, UniChristus, Maple Bear, Bow Valley College via D2L), K-12 (Yazigi, FACESG), healthcare (Unimed), finance (Hedgepoint), and government entities. Founded in 2023 with 11-50 employees, the firm raised a single $200,000 funding round in March 2026 and appears primarily bootstrapped, self-funding operations through service and licensing revenue.
