The problem we work on
Most EdTech fails where it's needed most. It's designed for bandwidth, budgets, and classrooms that fragile contexts don't have.
Bayl Consults starts from the constraint, not the technology. Offline-first delivery, teacher capacity, and what a ministry or cluster can actually sustain after the grant ends. We've seen enough pilots die at handover to design against it from day one.
