Who We Are

Abre grew from a need. As classrooms filled with Chromebooks and students had more access to EdTech, our founders noticed the software solutions used in their classrooms were messy. They faced countless logins, siloed data, and increasing confusion among different users. What was missing was simplicity and unification. So they created it.

Abre is quite literally made by educators. Our founders have years of experience in teaching and administrative leadership in K-12 education. We believe education is critical for the health of our society and have a genuine passion for helping educators.

Abre started in a single public school district, but soon neighboring schools noticed Abre’s impact. They viewed Abre solving challenges and wanted to implement Abre in their own district. Today we’re in hundreds of schools serving hundreds of thousands of students.
