oodlü Named EdTech Company of the Year 2026
We’re delighted to share that oodlü has been named EdTech Company of the Year 2026 in the Innovation & Excellence Awards.
This recognition reflects several years of focused development, continuous innovation, and close collaboration with educators and academics. It is always encouraging to see that work is acknowledged at an industry level.
At oodlü, our mission has remained consistent: to build engaging, flexible digital learning tools that empower teachers and prepare students for the future.
Innovation in Education Technology
Education technology has evolved rapidly over the past decade. However, much of the digital learning landscape still mirrors traditional classroom models, focussing heavily on content delivery and recall.
While knowledge remains essential, education is increasingly being asked to support a broader range of outcomes.
Students today need opportunities to develop:
Collaboration and teamwork
Creativity and problem solving
Communication skills
Confidence in digital environments
Adaptability and independent thinking
Technology can play a powerful role in supporting these skills, but only when it is designed thoughtfully.
At oodlü, we focus on creating tools that are engaging without being distracting, flexible without being complicated, and innovative without sacrificing safety.
Flexible, Teacher-Led Learning
One of the defining principles behind oodlü is flexibility.
Teachers are not restricted to a narrow content set or fixed curriculum framework. Instead, they can create:
Any questions
On any subject
At any level
In any language
This allows educators to tailor learning directly to the needs of their students, whether they are reinforcing foundational knowledge or exploring more advanced concepts.
Students can then interact with this content through engaging, game-based experiences that work across devices and settings.
Rather than replacing the teacher, the platform is designed to enhance their role.
Designed With Safety and Responsibility in Mind
As digital experiences become more immersive and interactive, safeguarding and oversight become increasingly important.
From the outset, oodlü has been built with structure, control and privacy at its core. Teachers retain oversight of student activity, and the platform is designed to operate within a clear educational framework.
Innovation in education should expand opportunity, not introduce new risks.
We believe engaging digital learning environments can and should coexist with strong safeguarding principles.
Built in Collaboration
oodlü is developed in collaboration with educators, academics and technologists.
Our advisory community plays an important role in shaping product direction and ensuring that new features respond to real classroom needs.
We also integrate modern technologies, including AI, but only where they add genuine value, whether in reducing teacher workload, enhancing insight, or improving content creation efficiency. However, our approach is measured. Technology is not adopted for attention; it is adopted for impact.
Looking Forward
Winning EdTech Company of the Year 2026 is an honour, and we are grateful for the recognition.
At the same time, we see this as a milestone rather than a destination.
Education is at a turning point. The next generation of learning tools must move beyond static delivery models and support more experiential, collaborative and skill-focused learning, while remaining safe, structured and teacher-led.
We are continuing to build towards that future.
To the educators, advisors and partners who have supported us so far, thank you. Your feedback and collaboration shape everything we do.
The work continues.
