Faro measures what each child understands, captures how they think, and shows teachers what could be taught next — for the students in their room.
Every step reads it and writes back to it. Then the model learns: it ranks what measurably moved students on that skill across every classroom, and writes with that first next time.
A computer-adaptive check-in that adjusts after every answer. Twelve to thirty items, not seventy. It returns a grade-level placement, a level for every domain, and ranked areas of focus that hand off directly to instruction.
Sample items for illustration. A real Compass check-in asks 12–30 items and reports across every domain in the subject.

Faro Brain captures each student's work and asks them to explain how they got their answer. It reconciles the response with the reasoning, names the misconception, expands on it for the student, and aggregates it across the class — so the teacher knows which idea to reteach tomorrow, and to whom.
Kenji explains: "I did 6 times 34 and got 204. Then 2 times 34 is 68. Then I added them."
Other platforms "personalize" by placing a child into a catalog of pre-built lessons. Faro's machine learning reads the student's record — what they understand, how they read, what supports they need, what's fading — and drafts the lesson, the practice, and the family note for that child, for the teacher to review. Then it learns which instruction moved students, and offers that first.

Lesson plans, small groups, leveled practice, exit tickets, and 89 more content types — each drafted from the class record, checked against twelve quality criteria, readability measured, with supports for English learners and students with special needs built in. The teacher decides what is taught next and approves what ships.
When Compass or Faro Brain finds an area of focus, the student gets a path: the concept first, then worked examples, then practice that adapts. Every attempt writes back to the record the teacher sees. No live model speaks to a child.
A note in the family's language: what the child can do, what they're working on, and one thing to try at home. No scores. No codes. Written from the same record the teacher sees.
Diego is reading above grade level and is confident with place value. Right now he's working on comparing fractions that have different denominators. This week, try cutting one sandwich into halves and another into quarters and ask which piece is bigger — and why.
Mastery rolls up from the child to the classroom, the campus, and the district on one scale, against your state's expectations. A principal and a teacher are looking at the same number. Four portals, one truth.


A lighthouse doesn't sail the ship. It shows you the way.
Faro never takes the wheel from a teacher. It shows what each child knows, points at what's next, and gets quieter as the learning steadies.
Bring a roster and a subject. In thirty minutes: a Compass check-in, a piece of student work captured and reconciled, a lesson drafted for that room, and the report your board would see. Pricing is per student, licensed to the district; we cover it on the call.
