This episode is sponsored by Doowii. Doowii brings all of your district’s data together. When data is scattered across systems and buried in outdated reports, it’s hard to turn that data into action. Doowii connects your SIS, LMS, assessments, staffing, financial data, and more into one secure, conversational intelligence platform designed for all educators. No extra strain on your district’s resources, just faster, smarter decisions. Hungry for better insights? Visit doowii.io to learn more and see it in action.

If your school’s data could talk, would it ask for help? Or maybe just a better dashboard? In this episode, I chat with Ben Dodson, founder and CEO of Doowii, a cutting-edge AI-powered data platform built specifically for education. Ben shares how his tech background (hello, Google and Snapchat!) inspired him to leap into the world of EdTech to solve one of education’s messiest problems: siloed, underutilized data.

We cover:

  • 🔍 What exactly Doowii does (and how it’s more than just a dashboard tool)
  • 🧠 How natural language queries make data accessible for everyone—no SQL required!
  • 🏫 Real use cases from school districts and universities (hello, bell schedule analytics!)
  • ⏱️ How Doowii helps admins reclaim hours of reporting time
  • 🔐 The importance of security, privacy, and ethical AI use in student data
  • 🧭 Using predictive models to flag support needs before students slip through the cracks

Plus, Ben answers the ultimate question: Corn or flour tortilla?

If you’re tired of waiting a week for that failing student report, this episode is your invitation to reimagine how data works for you…not against you.
