The only way to solve the student debt crisis is through an efficient education system. While financial band-aids may provide temporary relief, lasting change requires fixing the underlying issues that cause the inefficiencies in the first place.

The higher education ecosystem suffers from a fundamental information-sharing problem. Vital data remains trapped in institutional silos, creating a broken feedback loop where students navigate without clear information about transfer credits, financial aid options, and degree pathways. Meanwhile, institutions operate with incomplete student context, and systems that should work together remain disconnected and incompatible.

When stakeholders can't access the information they need, the consequences are severe: increased dropout rates, delayed graduations, wasted credits, and mounting student debt.

What's needed is fundamental infrastructure that enables seamless information flow between all stakeholders in higher education. Not another app or dashboard—but a coordinating layer that connects previously walled-off systems. We call this education logistics, and it's exactly what we're creating.

Tasseled enables seamless credit transfer and recognition between institutions, optimized financial aid allocation based on complete information, and clear educational pathways visible to both students and institutions. When information flows freely, everyone benefits: students graduate faster with less debt, institutions improve outcomes, and the entire system becomes more efficient and effective. This isn't just another education tool—it's the missing infrastructure that higher education has needed for decades.

Our solutions address core challenges in education:

• Credit mobility infrastructure enables seamless transfer of academic value
• Financial aid optimization infrastructure ensures efficient use of public resources
• Education pathway infrastructure enables mobility between institutions
• Transcripting infrastructure transforms unstructured academic records into actionable pathways
• Dual enrollment infrastructure bridges the gap between K-12 and higher education systems
