Software that moves education forward.

What we do

Engineering, end to end

Six ways Azure Interactive plugs in — a small team that can take a project the whole distance.

0→1

Zero-to-one products

Take a product from idea to launch with people who've shipped 0-to-1 before — fast, and without a big-agency layer in between.

</>

Web & mobile apps

Fast, accessible, maintainable apps your users trust and your team can actually keep building on after launch.

AI

AI & LLM features

Production AI, not demos: tutoring, assessment, and content features built on large language models — with the guardrails education products need.

API

Platform & data integrations

LMS, SIS, and CRM / application pipelines that make disconnected systems talk — the plumbing that powers online learning.

AA

Accessibility & compliance

WCAG accessibility built in from the start, or retrofitted — now a legal requirement for selling into schools and universities, not a nice-to-have.

1:1

Technical advisory

Hands-on guidance for founders and teams: architecture, hiring, and the build-versus-buy calls that are expensive to get wrong.

How we work

A calm center to the storm

A simple, visible process — so hiring an outside engineer never feels like a leap of faith.

01

Survey

Map the turbulence — your goals, constraints, users, and the systems already in play. No code until the problem is clear.

02

Architect

Chart the path: scope, stack, and a plan you can see. You'll know what we're building and why before we build it.

03

Build

Ship in tight, visible increments. You work directly with the people writing the code — no telephone game.

04

Launch & iterate

Get it live, watch real usage, and keep refining. The eye of the storm is calm because the work was done up front.

Selected work

Products that shipped

Real engagements, real outcomes.

NurseHub

NCLEX Prep, from zero to one

Problem
NurseHub had a loyal audience for nursing-school entrance prep (TEAS, HESI) and needed to extend into the high-stakes NCLEX licensure exam — a brand-new product, not a feature.
What we built
A complete NCLEX Prep product, built from scratch: a 1,700+ question bank spanning classic and Next-Generation NCLEX formats — including 700+ NGN-style case studies — with a baseline assessment and full-length readiness exams, delivered on a monthly subscription.
Outcome
Live at nursehub.com as a $40/month subscription product.

Fluent City → Cricket eLearning

A subscription model and an acquisition, handled

Problem
Cricket Media acquired Fluent City — an adult language platform with 40,000+ learners — and needed it converted to subscriptions and folded cleanly into the Cricket brand.
What we built
Led the conversion to a subscription model and the technical side of the acquisition: rebranding to Cricket eLearning and adding the features needed to align with Cricket Media's multigenerational platform.
Outcome
Relaunched under the Cricket eLearning brand, spanning 11 languages and learners of every age.

The data pipelines behind online degrees

Problem
University online degree programs depend on LMS, SIS, and CRM / application systems that don't natively talk to one another — and the data has to be right. As universities bring online programs in-house, owning that plumbing matters more than ever.
What we built
Designed and built the data pipelines integrating the LMS, SIS, and CRM / application systems that power Noodle's online degree programs for university partners.
Outcome
Reliable data flow underpinning enrollment and delivery for 50+ university programs — including at Harvard, Columbia, NYU, Oxford, LSE, and American University.
Who you'd work with

The people building it — not account managers.

Azure Interactive is a founder-led studio. You work directly with the engineer who designs and builds your software — backed, when a project needs more hands, by a small bench of trusted collaborators we've worked with for years.

We know education — and the problems that come with real products anywhere: launching something new, integrating systems that don't talk to each other, meeting accessibility and compliance bars, and turning a product into a business. Whatever you're building, its hardest problem probably isn't one we're seeing for the first time.
