Education AI shipped.
Governance didn't.

Lattice is the institutional AI governance suite built for procurement — for K-12 districts, universities, workforce L&D leaders, and EdTech vendors selling into them. Filed before the next inquiry — parent, accreditor, OCR, or board — not assembled the week before.

One note when access opens — nothing else.

Lattice · noun

A regular crossing framework — each cross point a decision, each line a flow of evidence. Between regulator, accreditor, board, and parent.

That's what institutional governance is.

The problem with educational AI governance today

You're not short on policy guidance.
You're short on filed evidence.

Every CTO, CISO, provost, and EdTech founder we talk to says the same thing: "We know what good governance looks like. We just don't have a defensible file for the next inquiry."

0 of 18AI-enabled vendors

At the typical district we scan, that's how many AI-enabled vendors have a current HECVAT 4.0 on file. Not because the technology office isn't competent — because the procurement intake window is shorter than the cycle to assemble institutional evidence from scratch.

You're already paying for educational AI governance — counsel time on state DPAs, board meeting prep, accreditor evidence assembly, parent transparency notices missed and back-filed. You're just not getting it filed ahead of the inquiry. Lattice is the institutional layer that turns the spend into a defensible audit trail before the next parent, board, OCR, or accreditor request lands.

✕ Today — unfiled, ad-hoc, scrambled
HECVAT 4.0 requests sit on the CTO's desk for six to ten weeks
State DPA addendums drafted from scratch with counsel time each cycle
Board memos run fourteen pages, get tabled, semester ends, tool dies on the agenda
WCAG 2.1 AA testing skipped while April 2026 approaches
Parent transparency notices missed by twelve-plus months
Accreditor visit lands on a panic-assembled evidence pile
→ Lattice — filed, dated, defensible
HECVAT response ships in under ten business days, not six to ten weeks
State DPA addendums generate against the right jurisdiction in 24 hours
Board memo runs two pages, gets approved, tool ships the same semester
WCAG 2.1 AA testing prioritized by student-impact-per-dollar-of-remediation
Parent transparency notices filed ahead of every records request
Accreditor visit lands on a current, dated, formatted evidence file
Built for institutions that file before the inquiry lands

If a parent, accreditor, board, or state DOE
could ask you tomorrow — you should be on this list.

01

K-12 District Leadership

Superintendents, CTOs, CAOs, and assistant superintendents at districts navigating board approval cycles, state DOE attestations, IL SOPPA / NY Ed Law 2-d / CA SOPIPA compliance, and the July 1 fiscal-year clock that makes or breaks every adoption decision.

02

Higher Education Leadership

CIOs, CISOs, and Provosts at colleges and universities preparing for accreditor visits (SACSCOC, WSCUC, HLC, MSCHE, NECHE, NWCCU, ACCJC), Title IX × AI exposure, IRB AI-research considerations, and the DOJ ADA Title II April 2026 deadline.

03

EdTech Vendors & L&D Leaders

EdTech founders and Trust & Safety leads who lose district deals to slow HECVAT cycles. CHROs and learning leaders facing NYC LL 144, Colorado AI Act, GDPR employee-data, and the works-council disclosure cycle for any AI used in hiring or training.

Why this is different from every other educational governance resource

Not a membership.
Not a template library.
An institutional layer.

EDUCAUSE and CoSN are memberships — community, conference, research. Common Sense and Future Privacy Forum publish free trackers. Lattice sits between them and Big-4 readiness scans — the institutional layer that produces filed evidence in your specific stack, against your specific regulator, this semester.

01

HECVAT response compresses from six-to-ten weeks to under ten business days

The cycle districts now expect. Vendor relationships close, not stall. EdTech buyers stop losing deals to the competing vendor that responds faster.

02

State DPA addendums generate against the right jurisdiction in 24 hours

Illinois SOPPA ≠ New York Ed Law 2-d ≠ California SOPIPA. Each clause-by-clause, education-law-counsel reviewed, ready to submit — not drafted from scratch every cycle.

03

The accreditor visit lands on a current, dated evidence file

SACSCOC, WSCUC, HLC, MSCHE, NECHE, NWCCU, ACCJC — formatted to each region's standard. Not assembled the week before. Not generic governance theory adapted from corporate work.

04

Board memo Monday morning takes two hours

Not two weeks. Not fourteen pages. Not tabled. Public-records-defensible, Brown Act-compliant, formatted for elected trustees who need to read and decide in a single board meeting.

— The honest version

"A parent will ask. An accreditor will ask. The board will ask. The state DOE will ask. You can produce a defensible audit trail this semester, or you can scramble the week before the inquiry lands. The institutions that file ahead get the next year's funding. The ones that scramble forfeit it. Lattice is what your CTO, provost, or trust-and-safety lead files in advance."

Be on the list before founding
institutional cohort opens.

Founding cohort caps at 50 institutional seats. Paced to July 1 fiscal-year start for K-12 buyers. After Q3, prices return to standard list and the founding-cohort benefits sunset — including the published VPAT, on-request HECVAT, and founding-customer input on Q3 add-on roadmap.
