CompassOS connects every system a school runs into a single, coordinated experience. Compass AI puts that connected picture to work, using the tools your staff already rely on.
Your existing tools become part of a coordinated whole-school experience, not a replacement for it.
Move between products without friction. Every system works as one, the technology recedes, the people come forward.
Manage every integration and explore Compass and third-party products from one place.
Managing a school has always meant moving between systems that were never designed to talk to each other. CompassOS changes that. It is the operating layer that connects identity, data, workflows and integrations across every Compass product and partner, so staff, students and parents can move as one.
Your existing tools stay. They become part of a coordinated whole-school experience, shaped around how your staff actually work.
A more present teacher. A more informed leader. A student more connected. The point is never a smarter machine.
No lock-in. Connect your preferred AI platform via the Compass MCP Connector. The school stays in control.
Student, attendance, timetable and activity data unified in one place, so AI can answer questions across the whole school, not just parts of it.
Compass AI is the next step after CompassOS, made possible by the operating system and unified data models beneath it. At its core is the Compass MCP Connector, which lets a school bring its own LLM tool and put it to work across every system the school runs.
By bringing student, attendance, extracurricular, timetable and activity data together in one place, Compass AI can answer complex questions across the whole school, not isolated insights, but connected understanding.
Streamline every step of the education journey so you can give more time to your students.
CompassOS isn’t a separate product you install or migrate to — it runs underneath your existing Compass products, adding single sign-on and a unified view on top of the tools you already use day to day.
CompassOS is currently in a pilot phase with a small number of schools. It’s moving to a phased rollout, with the goal of eventually being switched on for every school by default — at that point it won’t be an opt-in feature, it’ll just be part of how the Compass products work.
During the pilot, schools can register interest through their Success Manager, and we’ll follow up directly.
Once you’re signed into one Compass product, CompassOS recognises you automatically when you move to another connected Compass product — there’s no second password, no re-entering credentials, and no separate account to manage. This is powered by what we call Unified Identity: one record of who you are and which school you belong to, shared consistently across every connected product.
No — if that staff member already has an account in both connected products, CompassOS’s single sign-on means they can move between them freely via the App Switcher without re-logging in, even though they’re using the products for two different purposes.
It’s a small icon in the top navigation bar of every connected Compass product (similar to the app-switching icon you’d recognise from Google Workspace or Atlassian products) that lists every system your school has set up. Click it, and you move straight into that product — already signed in.
Yes. The App Switcher appears for every school regardless of how many products you have connected — it isn’t restricted to schools running multiple systems.
The App Switcher itself shows for everyone — it’s not permission-gated. What is currently restricted is the deeper Administrator Dashboard content (system health, adding new products, etc.), which is only visible to designated administrators.
You will always see it. It will be something that is just on for all schools literally no matter what.
You can see which Compass products are live for your school, browse other available products (including approved third-party tools), and see recommendations based on characteristics like your school’s size and segment. You can also register interest in a new product directly from there.
Not automatically. It registers your interest and notifies our team directly, so we can follow up with you about next steps — it’s a fast way to flag what you want, not an instant self-service activation (at least during the current phase).
Yes — that’s exactly the use case it’s built for. You can keep the best-of-breed tools you’ve chosen while still getting one login and one dashboard across your whole stack, rather than trading functionality for convenience.
Yes — part of what CompassOS does behind the scenes is establish that these records belong to the same school, so you get one consistent identity rather than having to reconcile duplicate records yourself. There’s no manual matching required on your end.
No — once it reaches general availability, CompassOS becomes a standard part of how the Compass products work, the same way you can’t opt out of Google’s account-switching feature across Google Workspace apps. It won’t be a toggleable setting.
