Trusted by nonprofit organizations and state agencies
We empower education programs with a secure platform that saves administrators time and money — and gives families, schools, and vendors effortless access.
Programs often stitch together separate systems for intake, eligibility, disbursement, and reporting. Theodore replaces that patchwork: cloud-based, secure, program-isolated platform architecture, configured to the exact legislation or rules of any K–12 program.
Verification by hand
In many programs, eligibility decisions still rely on paper and phone calls to a call center.
Money in too many places
Checks, ACH, third-party apps, and reimbursement backlogs — each through a different system.
Families waiting to be paid back
Some programs still ask families to spend first and file for reimbursement later.
Audits that start from zero
Reporting means pulling data from five systems into spreadsheets — every quarter.
Theodore is a purpose-built, white-labeled education funding platform for K-12 — cloud-based, secure, program-isolated, and configured to the exact legislation or rules of any program. State ESAs, Tax Credit Scholarships, microgrants, managed spending programs.
