A first in K–12 professional development

We only get paid
when your teachers grow.

2gnoMe tracks every teaching component in your district's framework — and ties our fee to what actually moves: observable improvement in practice, verified by your own administrators.

costs for participating districts

* Based on internal platform data across participating districts. Of all teaching component scores that change between baseline and 12-month observations, 61% shift upward and 39% shift downward. Scores that remain unchanged — typically the majority — are not counted in this figure. Individual district results will vary based on starting ratings, observation consistency, and engagement with the platform.

The only platform in K–12 professional development where payment is tied to improvement in teacher practice — not just access to software. Better teaching. Less turnover. Time back for administrators.
How we measure it

Every teaching component. Measured before and after.

District administrators observe teachers at the start of the engagement and again at the end of the year. 2gnoMe's fee is based entirely on the direction of what changes.

  • 1
    Baseline observation. District administrators observe each teacher across all components of the chosen framework and record their ratings.
  • 2
    Continuous development. Teachers engage with personalized coaching, feedback loops, and structured learning paths throughout the year. Unlimited training and support included.
  • 3
    12-month follow-up observation. Administrators re-observe the same 22 components. Some scores stay the same — that's fine. We focus entirely on the ones that move.
  • 4
    We measure what shifts — and which direction. Our fee is determined solely by what share of changed scores moved upward. The higher that share, the more we earn. Our target: the majority of shifts are positive.
"Every district deserves a partner with skin in the game. We built our entire pricing model around that idea."
What "skills tracked" means

WHAT "SKILLS TRACKED" MEANS
Teachers receive classroom observations and summative feedback across different skills (components) in their district's framework.

For example, the Danielson Framework includes 22 components across 4 domains. Therefore, a district with 100 teachers has 2200 total skills per observation. We get paid according to the improvement between observations.

100 teachers × 22 components = 2,200 skills tracked

 

The payment tiers

Our fee follows your results.

At month 12, one number determines what 2gnoMe earns: the share of changed ratings that moved up.

Not there yet

Below threshold

Up to 40% of changes are positive
$0
performance fee
2gnoMe does not collect the performance fee. The $12/teacher upfront covers fixed platform and onboarding costs only. We go back to work.
Building momentum

Partial credit

40–60% of changes are positive
$15
flat performance fee
A flat $15/teacher performance fee is earned — on top of the $12 upfront — for a total of $27. Progress recognized, contract partially fulfilled.
Target — fulfilled

Contract delivered

60%+ of changes are positive
$48
per teacher performance fee
Full performance fee earned. Total per-teacher cost: $12 upfront + $48 at review = $60. Goal met, contract fulfilled.
Payment schedule: $12 per teacher invoiced at contract signing ($1/month, covering platform setup, onboarding, unlimited training, and all standard customizations). The performance fee is invoiced upon delivery of the 2gnoMe Annual Impact Report at month 12: $0 if positive changes are below 40%, $15 (flat) if 40–60%, $48 if 60%+.

Calculator methodology: "Skills that shift" reflects the subset of tracked components whose scores change between baseline and 12-month observations — estimated at ~30% based on internal platform data. The performance fee is determined by what share of those shifted scores are positive: below 40% → $0 fee; 40–60% → flat $15/teacher; 60%+ → $48/teacher (contract fulfilled). The $12 upfront is collected at signing regardless of outcome.
