MEET BRIGHTERBALANCE

A clear plan for CICO.
No more typing up cards.

A good setup is the first step. The hard part is keeping the data current every day. BrighterBalance reads each card from a photo, so your coordinator can spend that time with students instead of a spreadsheet.

Snap the card at check-out. Ratings, totals, and goal status are read from the photo.

See CICO graphs by day, by period, and across every student on CICO.

Fade with confidence. Students rate first, and teachers confirm.
