How Does ListEdTech Gather its Data?
We scan publicly available data (news releases, social media, university and company websites) to gather our information. Our dataset includes (but is not limited to):
- Educational companies, products, and institutional characteristics,
- Primary and secondary systems supported by an institution,
- Implementation dates and decommission dates,
- Contracts, RFP and acquisition data.
Our team controls for bias and regularly updates, reviews, and validates the data at the source to help organize, sort, and classify more than 3 million data points. Though we cannot guarantee an accurate market representation, the methods we use prevent the overrepresentation of any solution.
As part of our data quality control, we review our database monthly. During these processes, we constantly reach a 95% accuracy rate.
