SafeInsights enables researchers to answer questions about learning that were out of reach — without ever revealing student data.
SafeInsights brings together researchers and Data Partners to solve education's most challenging problems, offering a model that delivers real value to everyone involved.
SafeInsights is built for:
With SafeInsights, researchers never access raw student data. Instead of extracting data, research questions run where the data already lives, enabling powerful new research while keeping student information secure.
Study large, diverse student populations over time across multiple learning platforms. With access to tens of millions of students, researchers gain once-impossible longitudinal and population-level insights.
Data Partners retain full control — approving studies, reviewing code, and vetting results. You decide what's shared, who accesses it, and which questions are answered. Data never leaves your systems.
SafeInsights removes lengthy negotiations and administrative delays. Researchers focus on discovery, while Data Partners benefit from standardized, low-effort processes that deliver insights faster and with greater impact.
AI helps researchers understand the data and write code, and helps Data Partners review proposals, code, and outputs. People make every decision.
Looking to start your next research study? Interested in enabling research without operational burden? We're here to help.
SafeInsights is a nationwide research infrastructure that enables large-scale education research without student data ever leaving its source. By bringing research questions to where data already lives, SafeInsights makes it possible to transform education through better evidence, and protects student privacy at every step.
