Beyond Words Solutions for the Public Sector

Beyond Words delivers AI-powered language learning solutions designed to meet the operational needs of federal agencies, state and local government, K-12 districts, higher education institutions, public healthcare systems, and workforce development programs. The product portfolio is structured around three solution families: Application Licenses, Language Add-Ons, and Training Services.

  • Application Licenses

    The Beyond Words Application is the core platform: a cloud-based, browser-accessible language learning environment that combines immersive 360-degree speaking scenarios with AI-driven phonetic feedback at the syllable level. Application Licenses are sold by volume tier, aligned with public-sector procurement norms, and include two languages of the customer's choice within the base price.

    • Classroom Tier (up to 100 users) — Designed for individual teachers, single classrooms, small training cohorts, or pilot deployments at the school or unit level. Includes full access to all platform features, teacher dashboard, individualized learner analytics, and 24/7 cloud availability. Two languages included; additional languages available as add-ons.
    • School Tier (up to 250 or 500 users) — Optimized for school-level or department-level deployments in K-12 schools, university language departments, or mid-sized training programs. Includes administrator console, multi-classroom management, exportable reporting for institutional accountability, and bulk user provisioning.
    • District Tier (1,000 to 10,000 users) — Engineered for large-scale public-sector deployments, including school districts, university systems, federal agencies, and statewide workforce programs. Includes single sign-on integration support, advanced administrator controls, district-level analytics dashboards, dedicated onboarding support, and volume pricing aligned with K-12 budget cycles.

    All Application Licenses are delivered as 12-month annual subscriptions, renewable, with no hardware or installation required. The platform runs on any modern web browser on desktop, tablet, or mobile devices, and is also accessible via standard VR headsets for institutions that have already invested in immersive technology.

  • Language Add-Ons

    Beyond Words supports eight languages out of the box: English, Spanish, French, German, Italian, Mandarin, Portuguese, and Arabic. Each Application License includes two languages within the base price. Customers requiring additional languages can extend their license through Language Add-On packs, sold per language and per volume tier.

    • Add-On for 100 users — Extends one additional language to a Classroom or single-school deployment.
    • Add-On for 500 users — Designed for multi-school or department-wide language expansion.
    • Add-On for 2,500 users — For district-wide or system-wide rollout of an additional language.
    • Add-On for 10,000 users — For the largest deployments at the state, federal agency, or higher education system level.

    Language Add-Ons include the full curriculum for the additional language, AI phonetic feedback, scenario library, and integration with the existing teacher and administrator dashboards. CEFR alignment is consistent across all supported languages, enabling standardized proficiency assessment regardless of the language taught.
