About the Sdui Group

Since its founding in Koblenz in 2018, the Sdui Group has developed into one of the fastest growing companies for educational technologies in Europe. As a reliable partner, the EdTech provider supports educational institutions, providers and ministries with digitalisation by developing innovative operating systems for digital schools and preschools.
The aim of the platform is to use smart functions to connect teachers, educators, parents and children.

To this end, the Sdui Group offers GDPR-compliant solutions with functions such as chat, translation functions, cloud, class register or AI lesson planner, which are specially tailored to the needs of schools and daycare centres. 
The Sdui Group also includes the administration and management platform PUPIL and the learning and grade management offering Additio. The company is based in Koblenz and currently employs around 230 people. It is active in more than 70 countries. Following the acquisition of FoxEducation, a total of around 22,000 educational institutions currently use Sdui Group offerings.

Sdui founding story

Founders Daniel Zacharias and Jan Micha Kroll came up with the idea for Sdui in 2015, when they were students at the Martin-Butzer-Gymnasium in Dierdorf: they didn’t want to hear about it only at school when lessons were cancelled. They developed a digital solution (initially called “Basic P”) for the “Jugend forscht” competition. Due to the positive response and high demand, they continued to pursue the idea of their app after graduating from secondary school. On 8 February 2018, they officially founded the Sdui GmbH in Koblenz. In May 2018, the Sdui app was implemented for the first customers. From the very beginning, Sdui’s goal has been to simplify communication and organisation in schools and daycare centres, and to use digital solutions to make a lasting change in everyday school life. Today, we express our motivation in our purpose slogan:
EMPOWER HUMANS TO TRANSFORM EDUCATION FOR A BETTER TOMORROW!
