Ednition was founded in 2021 by EdTech veterans who previously built, scaled, and exited a K-12 assessment platform. Along the way we navigated thousands of district integration environments — and saw firsthand how time-consuming and expensive rostering and integrations can become.
We realized EdTech vendors didn’t need another patch or work around, they needed durable infrastructure. So we built RosterStream — a platform built on open standards that handles the complexity of rostering and integration so engineering teams can focus on building great products.
When we built our previous EdTech company, (MasteryConnect), we were among the first to work with third-party rostering data exchanges. We paid for that privilege. By the time we were acquired, we were spending seven figures on data exchange fees, internal infrastructure, support, and implementation. Time and money that should have gone into building better products for teachers and students.
We built Ednition so no one else has to learn that lesson the hard way. Then we adopted a penguin named Eddie, gave him headphones and sunglasses, made him our official mascot, and handed him a very important slogan: Keep Calm and Roster On. Because if you’re going to solve the hardest problems in edtech, you might as well have fun doing it.
Today, Ednition is a team of the best minds in edtech. Some we met on the MasteryConnect journey, while others we’ve been lucky enough to find along the way. Either way, we genuinely love working together and we channel that energy into RosterStream, the platform that puts rostering, integration, and interoperability on cruise control.
Keep Calm and Roster On
Eddie’s life motto, and honestly, ours too.
The EdTech Stack (rostering, data integrations, SSO/authentication, LMS integrations, and more) is the invisible infrastructure powering your product. Many companies try to build and maintain this layer on their own.
Over time, it drains engineering resources, slows product velocity, and compounds in complexity as customer count grows.
RosterStream is the rostering and data interoperability platform built exclusively for EdTech. It puts rostering, integration, and interoperability on cruise control, so you can say YES to every district, every standard, every integration, and your engineers get to go back to building what your customers actually pay for.

We'd love to chat. Eddie might even throw in some swag.
(He takes his swag duties very seriously.)
Let's talk.
A 30-minute call is all it takes to see if RosterStream is the right fit, and Eddie will personally oversee the swag situation if you sign up. Keep Calm and Roster On, friends.
