Async Ideas

This platform has been an invaluable resource for my elementary school students to experience authentic learning and share their voices with a real audience. As a teacher-librarian in a public school district, I frequently advocate for and present on tools like Async at district and state library media conferences. I would like to request that Async consider offering a dedicated K–12 educational tier or keeping basic public school hosting accessible and free. Here are two key areas where support would make a huge impact: K–12 Compliance & Accessibility: Due to strict privacy regulations, students currently cannot log in directly, so I upload their completed episodes using school-approved editing tools. A streamlined educator/student-safe workflow would be incredible. Upgrade Pop-ups: Persistent upgrade prompts are making it difficult to upload content smoothly. Our school does not seek financial compensation—we simply hope to keep using this platform to showcase student learning.
