On partnership
Help bring a complete classroom to a community.
Scalable, sustainable, and measurable. You pick the community. We scope the software, equipment, and support it needs, then agree how progress will be measured and reported.
The gap
A classroom needs more than equipment.
A laptop is useful when students can power it, connect it, and learn with it. Plan the equipment, teaching material, and ongoing support together.
EquipmentDevices and a space to learn
Power & connectivityA setup suited to the site
Teaching materialCourses reviewed with educators
Local supportPeople to help keep the classroom running
Start with what the community already has. Together, we can identify what is missing and plan a deployment around it.
How partnership works
Six steps, from first conversation to live impact data.
Every deployment ships as one pre-packaged program. Same six steps, every country, every classroom.
- 01
Talk & match
One conversation. We learn what the community already has, what's missing, and what your priorities are. Together, we propose a deployment scope and funding plan.
- 02
Agree
We put scope, calendar, deliverables, and outcomes in writing. You sign once. No surprise quote, no scope creep, no second pass.
- 03
Build
We assemble the entire program. Software localized to the language. Devices, infrastructure, curriculum, teacher training plan, all sourced before anything ships.
- 04
Ship & train
We deliver to the site, install everything, and train the local teachers ourselves. You get first photos on day one and a locked go-live date.
- 05
Go live
Classroom opens. Students start learning. Authorized school staff can review learning activity and progress in Capyo; partner reporting follows the scope agreed for the deployment.
- 06
Measure & report
Agree a baseline, follow-up assessments, and reporting dates with the teaching team. Review the collected results alongside classroom activity and field feedback.

Imagine it's you. A handful of these classrooms, set down in the most underserved places on earth, where many of the students walking through the door haven't sat in school in years. Your name on the wall. We send you the photos, the videos, the test results. You watch them grow up.

What your partnership puts in the classroom
Make learning visible.
Keep people in the picture.
The school dashboard brings learning activity and learner highlights into view for school leaders. Agree reporting needs with us during deployment planning, including who receives reports and how student information is protected.
See the school tools →Review school dashboard highlights and learners who may need a follow-up.
How we measure
Make learning progress part of the plan.
Agree on learning objectives, an assessment approach, and a reporting schedule with the school. Compare a starting point with later results to understand where students are progressing and where they need more support.
Ask us how reading and math assessments can be adapted to the classroom, and what information a partner can receive. The report beside this text is illustrative.
- Reading Fluency and comprehension (EGRA-aligned)
- Math Numeracy and arithmetic (EGMA-aligned)
- Local Adapted to the language of instruction

Four kinds of partner. One classroom.
The way you measure changes. The work doesn't.
- CSR-grade
Companies
CSR-grade impact, the kind boards approve. A co-branded classroom in a real community, with a year of footage and photos for campaigns.
- Personal
Family offices
Choose a community, meet the educator, and follow the program through agreed reports and field updates. We plan the reporting and opportunities to visit with you.
- Programmatic
Foundations
Measurable outcomes against a defensible cost basis. Reports that survive due diligence. Unit economics per deployment, audit-ready documentation.
- LP-grade
Impact funds
Agree the outcome measures and reporting format for your program. Review assessment results and classroom activity alongside the context behind them.
Where we deploy
Not just schools. We also run in hospitals , refugee centers , and orphanages . Same platform, same measurement, different setting.
On the ground
Someone local leads every site we run.
Capyo does not deploy without one. Each container, each classroom, each cycle is led by someone who lives where the work happens. Same street. Same school. They open the doors. They keep them open.
Our promise
A practical team behind each deployment.
Capyo runs on startup time inside a sector that runs on academic time. The classroom we scope this quarter is teaching students the next.
-
We ship in weeks, not budget cycles.
From first call to a live classroom in weeks. Container, curriculum, connectivity, teacher training, all on one calendar you can read.
-
Outcomes are measured, not assumed.
Authorized school staff can review activity and learner progress. We agree the measures, reporting schedule, and information shared with partners before the deployment.
-
Run by educators we'd stake the mission on.
Every deployment is anchored by a credentialed local educator. Dr. Alexis Nizigiyimana leads our work in Burundi. The standard, not the exception.
Contribution
Help fund a Capyo deployment.
A single deployment serves 300 students for two full years of learning, teacher support, and dashboards backed by a written calendar. Donations run through Global Impact Canada (GIC). Ask us about receipts for eligible gifts.
Questions
Questions partners ask.
How long from first call to a live classroom?
Eight weeks is the standard pace for most deployments, faster for software-only programs, slightly longer for full container builds. We commit to a calendar in writing at agreement.
Can I receive a charitable receipt?
Global Impact Canada (GIC) handles receipts for eligible charitable gifts. Eligibility and tax treatment depend on the gift and the donor’s circumstances. Contact us to confirm receipting arrangements before giving.
How do I see what the money is doing?
We agree the reporting schedule and measures for your deployment. School leaders use Capyo to review learning activity; partner reports and field updates provide the context appropriate for your program.
Can I pick the country or community?
Yes. We have an active waitlist across more than twenty countries. Tell us where you want your impact to land and we'll match you to a community that fits your timing and scope. Multi-country programs are also possible.
