Credentials
01CredTrail: Digital badges institutions can own.
CredTrail gives institutions badge issuing, public verification, wallet support, and a codebase they can inspect or run themselves.
Open-source education products
Open-source education software from a team built in higher ed.
Longsight was built out of higher ed. Since 2004, we have run learning platforms for schools, passed dozens of security questionnaires, supported open-source software, and handled the campus details behind identity, LTI, accessibility, uptime, and compliance.

Institutional experience
We know how higher ed reviews, runs, and supports software.
Longsight has worked with more than 100 schools, including Duke, Pepperdine, NYU, Illinois State, Loyola University Chicago, the University of Limerick, Brock University, the University of Michigan, OHSU, TTUHSC, and Wellesley. We know how campus technology is reviewed, purchased, secured, integrated, hosted, and supported.

01
Security
We have answered the security questionnaires.
We have passed campus security reviews for systems that touch learning data, identity, grades, and integrations.
02
Deployment
We can run it, or you can.
Some schools want Longsight to host the service. Some need a campus-run instance. We design for both.
03
Compliance
Compliance comes before launch.
Privacy, accessibility, procurement, data retention, and vendor review are part of getting software approved on campus.
04
Higher ed
We know the semester calendar and the real LMS.
Longsight came from campus technology work, so we plan around support, integrations, accessibility fixes, and release timing.

Why We Built QFlow: Deno, QTI 3.0, and the Case for a New Authoring System
QTI 3.0 is mature, open-source runners exist, and institutions need authoring tools that keep assessment content portable. QFlow is the authoring tool we wanted for that work.

Why We Think Credentials Should Live Outside the LMS
Courses end. Credentials should not. CredTrail keeps badge issuing, verification, and portability outside the LMS.

The same campus issues keep coming back.
Identity. Rosters. LTI. Accessibility. Security questionnaires. Hosted and on-prem deployment. We have been solving that mix for years.

Work with Longsight
Bring us the problems that cross campus systems.
Hosted or on-prem. Security questionnaires. LMS integration. Accessibility at scale. These are familiar conversations for Longsight because we have been in them for twenty years.
