Konecto App

What Konecto App does

Konecto-Sdui is a vertical SaaS platform for K-12 education and early childhood, operated by Sdui GmbH (Germany) and part of the Seven Education Group. The platform unifies communication (supervised chat, polls, news feeds, document sharing, video conferencing, translation), scheduling (digital and AI-generated timetables, room and resource planning), learning management (grades and learning activities), and administrative planning into a single environment for schools and crèches. A distinctive element of the offering is a personal consultant assigned to each institution, providing white-glove onboarding and ongoing support alongside an in-app Academy and support portal. The solution is GDPR-compliant and is positioned for child-safe digital communications, with teacher-supervised chat and read-confirmation tracking.

The product architecture is modular, organized into functional suites (Communication and Organization, Planning and Administration, Learning Management and Grades) with flagship differentiators including the AI-generated timetable module, room and resource planner, and an upcoming full-day administration module. Underlying AI capabilities span process automation (timetable generation), NLP (in-app translation), and anomaly detection (supervised chat for cyberbullying prevention). The platform is localized in four languages (FR, DE, EN, ES) and serves more than 5,000 schools and crèches across German-speaking countries (Germany, Austria, Switzerland) and French-speaking regions. The legacy Konecto product was retired on June 30, 2024, with all clients migrated to Konecto-Sdui.

The business model is annual subscription licensing to educational institutions, with quote-based pricing that is not publicly disclosed. Go-to-market combines direct sales through assigned personal consultants with self-serve app registration, supported by a multi-channel marketing presence (LinkedIn, Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, Xing, blog, Academy). The operating company is Sdui GmbH under German law, headquartered in Germany with a Belgium-based founding entity (Konecto App, Marche-en-Famenne), and the company is privately held with no disclosed funding rounds or investor roster.
