Built by a homeschooling family, for families like ours.
ALOS began at our own kitchen table. We're Eduard and Alina — a homeschooling family, and the co-founders of ALOS. Like many families who teach at home, we loved the freedom of it but kept hitting the same practical walls: building a coherent learning project, keeping track of what our child was actually learning, and turning a year of real activities into the evidence and reports a portfolio requires. The tools we could find treated these as afterthoughts. So we built the one we wished we had.
The problem we set out to solve
Homeschooling generates learning everywhere — a lesson from a purchased curriculum, a project we designed ourselves, an afternoon at a museum. All of it counts, and all of it has to be captured, mapped to competencies, and eventually assembled into a learning project and a portfolio. That evidence work is where families get overwhelmed, and it's where ALOS starts: whatever the source of an activity — a third-party curriculum or something you made yourself — ALOS helps you track it toward the competencies it develops.
We also spend part of our week in a learning-center setting, so we've felt the same challenges from the other side — the coordination a group or organization needs when several educators support many students. ALOS is built for both realities: a single family, a co-op, or an organization — without forcing either to work the way the other does.
How we approach learning
We don't believe a child should be marched through a standard curriculum in lockstep. ALOS generates activities that are aware of where your child actually is — their pace, their level, their progress — drawing on the best of several proven educational approaches, without allegiance to any single one, and adapted to how children and families really live today. It's curriculum-aligned but not curriculum-limited: the structure is there when you need it — Québec's ministry requirements are our first reference — but the path stays yours. And it's built around the whole child, across ten areas of learning, from language and mathematics to physical health, emotional intelligence, and the capacity for attention and reflection.
Screen-minimal by design
This is the part we care about most. ALOS is led by the parent or educator — not the screen. The planning, the intelligence, and the documentation live on the adult's side; the child's day is real activities, real materials, and time with people, not hours in front of a device. Where a child does use the platform, it's minimal and by choice. We set out to build a learning tool that gets children off screens, not onto them.
Where we are, and where we're going
ALOS is built first around Québec's elementary requirements, and families beyond Québec can already follow an international track. We're now expanding into secondary levels and across Canada — adapting to each family's context while keeping the same principles.
Who we are
ALOS is built by Ayekah & Co. Inc., and carries its standards into everything we make: quality treated as an ethical commitment rather than a marketing line, technology kept human-centered, a genuine openness to many approaches rather than allegiance to one, and particular care taken with children and families. ALOS is our expression of that in education — bridging academic learning with the growth of the whole child, and built to be genuinely useful in the real conditions families and educators work in.
Collaborate with us
We're building ALOS alongside the families and organizations who use it. If you're a family, a co-op, a learning center, or an organization that shares what we're trying to do — and you'd like to help shape where ALOS goes — we'd love to hear from you.
We built ALOS to solve our own problems, to make the work convenient, and to make it a pleasure to use. If you're teaching a child at home — as a family, a group, or an organization — we built it for you, too.
