TagHive Inc., incorporated in 2017, is a Samsung funded education technology company with headquarters in South Korea and an office in India. The company’s mission is to build technology to improve the quality of education. Class Saathi, the flagship learning platform of the company includes clicker-based classroom response systems, AI-powered assessment solutions, and quiz banks.
TagHive has 24 registered patents and trademarks, and 11 others are pending. The company’s solutions are used in over 8,000 classrooms in India, South Korea, South Africa, Cambodia, and South America, and over 500,000 students have benefitted from the Class Saathi assessment solution.
Class Saathi is the World’s first Bluetooth based clicker based smart classroom solution that makes formative assessments easy and fast. It is a combination of a clicker device for each student and a software application for teachers, parents and administrators. It also includes multi-level dashboards for seamless performance monitoring.
After teaching a concept in a class, the teacher can ask a few questions using Class Saathi to gauge the understanding level of every student. Administrators and parents can then see this learning data on their respective apps. Class Saathi has over 500,000+ questions on Maths, Science, Social Studies and English across 20+ curriculums for Grades 1-10 (More coming soon).
Class Saathi is aligned with the Indian National Education Policy 2020’s objectives of micro-learning and continuous assessments. The “Data First” approach ensures greater accountability at all levels. Class Saathi is affordable and does not require schools to upgrade their infrastructure ("no internet" and "no electricity" are no more the limiting factors in making classrooms smart).
