Edtech design services
We fix what holds EdTech back. Bloated platforms. Confusing flows. Tools built for admins with no focus on learners. At Lazarev.agency, we design lean, intuitive education products that teach better, scale faster, and never get in the learner’s way. When needed, we embed AI to personalize learning paths and keep users engaged without adding complexity. Explore our EdTech design case studies to see how we’ve done it in practice.
- Faster onboarding, lower drop-off. We design learning experiences that get users started instantly. The faster learners find value, the more likely they are to stay. It’s like walking into a well-organized classroom where everything’s in place, and you know where to begin.
- Interfaces that guide. We structure content and interaction around how people learn. Clear hierarchies, contextual prompts, and simple flows keep users moving without friction.
- Flexible systems that scale with you. Our design systems don’t crack under pressure. Whether you're onboarding 100 users or 100,000, your product stays fast, clear, and easy to update.
- AI where it adds real value. We embed AI only where it solves real problems: helping users find what’s next, tracking progress, adapting content. It works quietly in the background like a great tutor who knows when to step in and when to let you focus.
- Clear value for all users. Most EdTech tools are built for admin control. We flip that. Our focus is on the learner experience without compromising what educators need. As a result, you get a product that feels intuitive for users and powerful behind the scenes. Everyone gets what they came for.
When the industry hands out its highest recognition, we’re the ones holding it
What’s holding EdTech teams back and how we solve it
Even with strong content and smart teams, EdTech products often hit the same barriers. We’ve worked with startups and enterprises alike and the patterns are clear. Below are the pain points we solve through sharp UX, adaptive design, and scalable systems.
Learners don’t know where to start
When the first click isn’t clear, users stall. Without guidance, even the best content can go unused. We design clear entry points and guided flows that make it easy to get started and easy to stay on track.
Low course completion rates
High drop-off is often an issue for UX design in education. If progress feels vague or motivation dips, learners disengage. We introduce pacing cues, smart progress indicators, and subtle nudges to keep users moving forward.
Same interface for every learner
Uniform experiences don’t work for diverse learning needs. One speed, one flow, one outcome. That’s a mismatch. We use adaptive UX and targeted AI to help each learner move at the right pace with just enough support.
Scaling means starting from scratch
Too many platforms break as teams grow or features expand. We design modular systems that evolve with your product, so growth doesn’t require redesign.
How we design EdTech that actually gets used
We rethink how education products should work. Our approach blends sharp UX thinking with scalable systems and just the right layer of AI — right for your specific product. Our team builds tools that support learners, empower educators, and grow with your goals.
Research starts with the learner
We begin with user interviews and behavioral data to understand how real people interact with your product. This helps us design flows that feel natural and remove the friction that blocks progress.
Structure first, then style
Our experts prioritize clarity before aesthetics. Information architecture and interaction logic come first so learners can focus, admins can manage, and no one gets lost in the interface.
AI as an invisible assistant
We integrate AI where it solves a real problem like personalizing content, tracking progress, or guiding the next step. It’s not the headline. It’s the quiet force that makes everything work better.
Design systems that grow with you
Our design systems are built to adapt. New content formats? More user roles? Bigger datasets? No problem. You’ll scale confidently without redesigning from scratch every quarter.
Collaboration that builds better products
We work side-by-side with your team, aligning with product goals and making fast, informed decisions. This gives us a partnership that moves with speed and builds with purpose.
What we offer in EdTech UX design
We don’t apply generic UX design in education products. Instead we tailor every solution to how people actually learn in each specific context. Our EdTech design services cover everything from adaptive learning flows to analytics dashboards, all built to improve clarity, boost retention, and support long-term product growth.
Adaptive learning design
We create education UX designs that respond to each learner’s pace and progress. Through AI and smart UX flows, users receive relevant support at the right time keeping engagement high without overwhelming the learner.
Gamification that drives real progress
Points, badges, and leaderboards alone aren’t enough. We design gamification that supports learning outcomes like progress streaks, timed challenges, and subtle rewards. This helps to boost motivation without distracting from content.
Mobile learning that fits real life
We design mobile-first EdTech tools for learners on the move. Our UX turns smartphones into focused, flexible learning spaces perfect for microlearning and high-volume use.
Learning dashboards that actually help
Our learning analytics design gives both admins and learners the clarity they need. We build dashboards that track progress, flag issues, and visualize outcomes so educators and users can make smarter decisions.
Modular content systems
We structure your learning content as reusable, scalable blocks. This lets teams build, update, and expand courses faster without breaking UX. A win solution for fast-growing EdTech platforms or internal training tools.
Client stories that speak louder than awards
Recognition is great, but client results are greater. Hear from the teams who’ve scaled with our design.

Real AI advantage built into EdTech design
We’ve been working with AI since 2017 — long before the hype. That early start gave us more than just technical skill. It gave us insight into how industries shift, how users behave, and how to design for both.
In EdTech, we use AI to understand learners faster, adapt content smarter, and turn your product into something competitors can’t replicate. For us, AI is a tool that solves real problems and creates real impact for your business.

How we build EdTech products
Every EdTech platform we design follows a process rooted in clarity, speed, and adaptability. We focus on what matters: learner experience, educator needs, and business results.
We design for attention, retention, and real educational outcomes.
Discovery grounded in real behavior
We start with deep user research covering interviews, usage data, and stakeholder insights. This helps us understand how learners think, where they get stuck, and what drives progress.
Structure before style
Then our team maps out flows, navigation, and content logic before touching visuals. It’s how we make sure the product works before it looks good.
Design with adaptive UX in mind
Our education UX design adapts to different learning needs and paces. We create interfaces that feel simple on the surface but flex with user context underneath.
Build fast, iterate smarter
We prototype early and often, testing ideas before you commit to development. Each iteration is grounded in feedback and focused on improvement.
Launch right for scale
We deliver developer-ready design systems built for longevity. Our handoff process ensures clean implementation, and our modular design approach means your product scales without the need for constant rework.
