Recommendation
As an investor, I would cautiously recommend investing in Ziplet.
The product addresses a growing demand for increased communication and feedback between students, parents, and teachers.
With plenty of research supporting the educational value of exit tickets and similar small scale formative assessments, along with the ability to address various social and emotional concerns, Ziplet is one of the most user-friendly and efficient ways of accomplishing this.
The reason for caution stems primarily from the fact that, while Ziplet currently holds a strong place in a small niche market, there are other platforms that address a similar need and other platforms that are poised to surpass Ziplet in terms of efficiency and functionality.
The primary question prospective investors should be asking themselves when deciding whether or not an investment into Ziplet is a worthy cause are:
Given that even the most user-friendly tech applications come with a learning curve, does overcoming that integration barrier in a classroom generate enough value for the user?
Looking at other products on the market, does Ziplet have long-term sustainability?
Does Ziplet’s pricing plan support potential expansion and continued refinement?
