EAB has spent years turning the messy machinery of education into a connected business: part research desk, part software suite, part enrollment agency. Its real product is a wider field of view - from the first college search to the first job simulation.
Archer Education is a higher education growth-enablement company that helps colleges and universities recruit, enroll, and retain students for their online programs. Founded in 2006 as the college-search portal Campus Explorer and rebranded as Archer in 2018, the firm pairs enrollment marketing, admissions support, and data-driven advisory services so institutions can grow online enrollment without building the machinery themselves. Over two decades it says it has partnered with 200+ institutions, managed 1,000+ online programs, and reached more than 20 million adult learners.
Risepoint (formerly Academic Partnerships) is a U.S.-based online program management (OPM) company that partners with regional, mostly public universities to develop, launch, market, and scale affordable, workforce-focused online degree programs. Headquartered in Dallas, Texas and owned by the Vistria Group, the company provides marketing, enrollment, student support, faculty support, and technology services so that universities can reach working-adult learners at scale. It works with 100+ university partners across the U.S., UK, and Australia and says it has supported hundreds of thousands of students.
Brightwheel is the all-in-one operating platform for early education centers, combining billing, attendance, family communication, enrollment, lesson planning, and compliance reporting into a single product. Founded in 2014 by Dave Vasen and backed by $88.8M in funding, it serves 150,000+ childcare programs and 2.2 million monthly active users across 50+ countries, holding over 53% market share in childcare management software.
ZeeMee is a higher education technology platform that bridges the gap between college-bound students and institutions through authentic community and behavioral intelligence. Founded in 2014 and headquartered in Redwood City, California, ZeeMee gives students a social space to showcase their personalities beyond transcripts while giving colleges AI-powered insights that predict enrollment intent with up to 98% accuracy. With 2.6M+ active student users, 300+ institutional partners, and a 4.7-star app rating, ZeeMee has quietly become one of the most influential platforms in college enrollment - helping students find roommates, discover campus culture, and connect with admissions teams before ever setting foot on campus.
