Episode Synopsis

In this episode, we explore Student First, a modern Student Information System founded in 2021 by EdTech veteran David Meek. Built from the ground up to address growing frustration with aging, expensive SIS platforms, Student First takes a clean-slate approach using a modern SaaS architecture with no legacy constraints. Designed specifically for non-traditional institutions such as career colleges, online programs, and globally oriented campuses, the platform emphasizes multilingual and multi-currency support, rapid implementation, and transparent pricing. We discuss how its mobile-first design, adaptive framework, and evergreen upgrades allow institutions to onboard in as little as four months, and why Student First is gaining traction among small to mid-sized institutions seeking agility, lower operational overhead, and student-centric workflows.
