Institut Montgròs

What Institut Montgròs does

The data point labeled "Institut Montgròs" refers in practice to Avaluacció, the vendor of the Avalua competency-based evaluation platform, with Institut Montgròs (a K-12 school in Sant Pere de Ribes, Catalonia) appearing as the flagship customer and origin testimonial. Avaluacció provides Avalua as a browser-based SaaS platform deployed on a virtual machine, accessible via laptop, tablet, and mobile browsers with no native app. The platform enables educational centers to define, track, store, and reuse competency indicators across academic years; to maintain a longitudinal Digital Competency Portfolio for each student covering their full enrollment at the center; to conduct real-time shared assessment with student self-evaluation and argumentation; to coordinate pedagogically with statistics and anomaly detection; and to generate automated competency-based report cards exportable to Excel and integrable with Esfer@. Architecturally the product is modular, comprising the assessment engine, indicator repositories, the digital portfolio, the pedagogical coordination tool, and an optional administration and maintenance add-on.

Revenue is generated through three streams: (i) an annual per-student software license subscription priced at €10/student/year for schools up to 100 students, €8/student/year for 101–400 students, and €6/student/year for 400+ students; (ii) one-time implementation fees of €100, €200, or €300 depending on data volume; and (iii) optional monthly managed services priced at €0–€30 depending on whether the school or Avaluacció administers the system. The go-to-market is sales-led: prospective educational centers in primary and secondary education are acquired through demo requests, video conference calls, and direct contact via email ([email protected]) and phone (+34 679 56 25 66). Distribution is entirely direct, with no reseller, marketplace, or app store presence, and the platform is aligned with the Catalan Departament d'Ensenyament's competency-based evaluation framework, restricting natural geographic reach to the Catalan/Spanish K-12 market.

Direct peers

• ManageBac: ManageBac is a curriculum planning, assessment, and reporting platform widely used in IB and international schools. It overlaps with Avalua on competency-based assessment and reporting, though it focuses on international/IB schools rather than the Spanish national framework.
• MasteryConnect: MasteryConnect (part of Instructure) is a K-12 mastery/competency-based assessment platform. It targets the same conceptual use case of tracking student mastery over time, though at much larger scale and for the U.S. market.
• iDoceo: iDoceo is a Spanish-developed teacher gradebook and assessment app for iPad used widely in K-12 schools across Spain. It targets the same primary/secondary teacher persona in the same geography, though it is broader than competency-specific evaluation.
• Toddle: Toddle is a K-12 teaching, learning, and assessment platform purpose-built for competency-based and IB/PYP/MYP frameworks. It directly competes with Avalua on the competency-assessment positioning and shared real-time evaluation with families.
• JumpRope: JumpRope is a standards-based and competency-based grading platform for K-12 schools, with real-time reporting for students and families. Highly comparable to Avalua in philosophy and feature set.

Broad incumbents

• Alma SIS: Alma is a modern Student Information System with built-in assessment and reporting for K-12 schools. It addresses adjacent use cases (grading, reporting, family portals) but as part of a broader SIS rather than a competency-specific platform.
• Brightwheel: Brightwheel is a broad K-12 admin, communication, and assessment platform. It overlaps with Avalua on parent-teacher communication around student progress but is a much broader, well-funded incumbent without competency specialization.

Emerging players

• Schoolytics: Schoolytics provides data analytics and dashboards for K-12 schools using Google Workspace. It is adjacent to Avalua in serving school decision-makers with student-data visibility but does not address competency evaluation directly.
• Showbie: Showbie is an assignment workflow and assessment tool for K-12 classrooms. It overlaps with Avalua on teacher-driven assessment workflows but does not specialize in competency-indicator repositories or longitudinal portfolios.

Regional players

• Additio App: Additio is a Catalonia/Spain-based K-12 teacher platform with gradebook, lesson planning, and competency evaluation features. It is the most direct regional peer in terms of language, geography, and Spanish curriculum alignment.
