SPLINT

  • An end-to-end process for support goals, measures, and progress.
  • Diagnostic aids and research-informed observation forms.
  • Student reflection through the SPLINTY web application.
  • Support planning and feedback available separately or through SPLINT One.

Kipti

  • Capture observations quickly in daily work by voice or text.
  • Use AI to structure selected observations into reviewable report drafts.
  • Reuse the same observation base for multiple document types.
  • Prepare support plans, learning progress reports, and meetings together.
  • Include multidisciplinary teams through roles and targeted sharing.
  • Connect tasks and responsibilities with documentation.
Details

The most important workflow differences

A feature list alone does not explain how each product fits day-to-day school work. These areas usually determine the fit.

01

Support planning: specialist workflow or broader starting point?

SPLINT builds its workflow around support goals, measures, diagnostic aids, and progress displays. Kipti starts earlier, with free-form observations from daily work, and uses AI to prepare that base for support plans, learning progress reports, meetings, and other documentation tasks.

02

AI assistance for reports and meetings

AI functionality is not described in the provider's documentation in the publicly available SPLINT materials. SPLINT describes automatic suggestions and phrasing support in the context of research-informed observation forms and expert-developed materials, not as AI. AI-assisted synthesis of free-form observations and AI-assisted report drafts are likewise not described in the provider's documentation. Kipti brings selected observations from several situations together, structures the relevant information, and prepares a report draft. Teachers and other professionals review every statement, add context, and take responsibility for the final version. AI reduces the sorting and drafting work; it does not replace professional educational judgment.

03

Capture and documentation in daily school work

Kipti connects fast voice or text capture with ongoing person-centered documentation. Regular observations form a history and can be reused by teams for support plans, learning progress reports, and meetings. SPLINT assigns observation results directly to goals, measures, progress, and feedback within structured support planning.

04

Collaboration and access control

Both systems support collaboration around student-related data. SPLINT describes explicit, granular sharing within support planning. Kipti applies the same basic principle more broadly across teachers, school social workers, extended-day staff, other professionals, and different document types.

05

Privacy controls

SPLINT's privacy factsheet describes privacy by design, encrypted data, and sharing controlled by responsible users. Kipti is designed to support GDPR- and EU AI Act-aligned use and documents the specific controls in its DPA: a contract under Article 28 GDPR; a distinct protection level for data of documented individuals with EU and EEA processing and no technical means for access from outside the EU under section 14(4); role-based access; the contractual exclusion of model training with customer data under section 2(3); and human review rather than automated decisions under section 2(4). Schools should review the current contract and privacy materials of both providers.

06

Pricing and getting started

The individual prices of Kipti Basic and SPLINT One are close according to the current pricing pages. School plans differ significantly in billing, minimum size, modules, and term, so schools should compare price against the required process and actual team size.

Decision guide

When each offering is the better fit

Start with the process that actually recurs in daily work. Additional features become meaningful criteria only after that.

When SPLINT is the better fit

Choose SPLINT when your school needs a specialized support-planning environment with diagnostic aids, observation forms, formal support goals, and measures. SPLINT is particularly relevant when students should view their goals through SPLINTY and reflect on them continuously with professionals.

  • support goals, measures, and diagnostic aids are the defined primary process
  • students should reflect on their own goals through SPLINTY
  • specialized support-plan and feedback modules are decisive

When Kipti is the better fit

Choose Kipti when observations from lessons, school social work, extended-day programs, or learning support should be captured quickly by voice or text and then prepared with AI for several document types. Kipti also fits when report drafts, tasks, handoffs, and shared team knowledge should extend beyond support planning in the same workspace.

  • AI should prepare reviewable report drafts from selected observations
  • your needs extend beyond formalized support planning
  • tasks, handoffs, and team knowledge should come together
