Case Study • Education.org
Ionio partnered with Education.org to turn years of scattered, unsearchable research into a platform that answers any question in seconds, cited to the studies behind it.
Education.org produces the evidence NGO professionals use to decide where funding and effort go, but most of it was locked across thousands of documents in different languages, reachable only by whoever knew where to look. They wanted to become an AI-first organisation, and they were sitting on exactly the kind of knowledge work AI could take on. We went through their workflow stage by stage and built for each one, and the centrepiece was a tool that made the whole of their research answerable in one question, for their team and then for the public they serve.
Education.org came to us through Sallyann, founder of Gleac, whose community Ionio serves as its AI team. She brought us in and stayed close to the work.
“I try to make sure when I’m bringing in teams, when my internal team can’t handle it, that I bring in someone who can handle it from A to Z.”
“I had very little involvement. I think I attended three or four meetings, and you and your team handled that project.”
“I was comfortable already with you. I knew that you could manage that, and your team handled that project.”
“There was such depth in terms of the work. They’re an example of an NGO that really took the first step.”
