Streamline: AI That Transforms Special Education Management

School districts across the U.S. face growing demands to support special education students amid staff shortages and pressure to prove operational efficiency. Streamline, an AI-driven platform developed by Better Speech, addresses these challenges by cutting paperwork time by 90%. What once took 3 hours for IEP preparation now takes just 10 minutes.

Speech-Language Pathologists (SLPs) using Streamline report a 50% increase in direct therapy capacity and a 32% improvement in speech-language outcomes, thanks to the platform’s AI-powered SLP Helper™. This tool personalizes speech practice and actively engages families.

Streamline isn’t just about saving time—it’s about restoring focus to educators and therapy providers. The CEO of Better Speech emphasizes the platform’s role in helping districts deliver individualized support and improving staff retention.

Meeting an Urgent Need with Scalable Efficiency

Over 7.3 million students in the U.S. receive special education services under IDEA. Yet many districts struggle with manual paperwork, increasing caseloads, and lack of insight into student progress. Notably, lawsuits related to IDEA noncompliance have surged by 65%, highlighting a critical gap in service delivery.

Streamline addresses these issues by offering:

  • 100% compliance assurance: Dashboards provide instant visibility into progress.
  • 90% reduction in paperwork: AI automates evaluation reports, IEP documents, and session notes, effectively boosting team capacity by 50% without new hires.
  • SLP Helper™: AI-driven personalized speech practice that involves families in the therapy process.

Lenora Edwards, an experienced SLP, highlights how paperwork often distracts from student-centered work. She praises Streamline for helping special education teams reclaim time, reduce burnout, and scale individualized support effectively.

How Streamline Works

The platform automates the entire special education workflow, including compliance monitoring, documentation, analytics, and service delivery. It integrates with major Student Information Systems (SIS), adapts to existing school workflows, and requires minimal training. This makes it accessible for districts of any size, including those facing staffing challenges.
