What does Equal Edge cost?

Equal Edge is free for students participating in the Fall 2026 pilot. No payment information is required.

Do I need to join the Student Ambassador Program?

No, the Student Ambassador Program is optional. It's a way to help shape Equal Edge, connect with other students, and earn rewards along the way. Ambassadors earn points by sharing feedback, completing weekly challenges, and spreading the word about Equal Edge. Redeem your points for gift cards and other rewards, see how your school ranks on the leaderboard, and get early input into what Equal Edge becomes.

Why do I need to use my school email address?

Your school email lets Equal Edge know which institution you are part of. This is how the app connects you to your school's pilot program and keeps your data separate from students at other schools.

How do I import my schedule?

You can import your schedule using an ICS file, the standard calendar format used by Canvas, Google Calendar, Google Classroom, Outlook, Brightspace, CoursePlus, and most other course management systems. Go to Profile, then Import Calendar, and paste the link or upload the file. Import can take up to 15 seconds.

An ICS file is a standard calendar format used by most calendar apps and course management systems. When you export your schedule from Canvas, Google Calendar, or Outlook, the file you receive is usually an ICS file. Equal Edge uses it to import your classes, assignments, and deadlines without you having to type them manually.

How do I upload a syllabus?

Go to Profile, then Syllabus Hub. Select your course and upload your syllabus. Accepted formats: PDF, JPG, or PNG. You can also take a photo of a printed syllabus directly from your phone's camera. Repeat this for each course.

What's the difference between an activity and a task?

An Activity is the bigger commitment or goal—the project, assignment, or goal you want to accomplish. Tasks are the smaller, actionable steps that make up an activity. They're the 'how' you get it done. For example, writing a paper for English class would be the Activity, and tasks would include reviewing assignment instructions, choosing a topic, writing a thesis statement, creating an outline, writing paragraphs, checking grammar, peer review, and submitting the paper.

What features are coming out soon?

The app currently includes your planner (Schedule) and your course document storage (Course Hub). Two additional sections are coming in Fall 2026. The Grow section will offer a library of topic-based content, self-discovery assessments, and reflective tools that support executive functioning skill-building over time. The Learn section will expand on this with a full library of personalized content. A dedicated Timer for focused work sessions is also coming in Fall 2026.

Will my disability services office see what I do in the app?

Your disability services office cannot see your task content, notes, planner entries, or syllabus documents. Equal Edge shares data with your school in two ways. First, your school receives aggregate reports showing how students as a whole are using the app. Second, your school receives individual-level engagement signals, specifically whether your activities are being completed, left incomplete, or deferred. These signals are based on patterns of activity, not the content of what you write.

Equal Edge collects the information you provide at sign-up (your name and school email address) and the content you create in the app (activities, tasks, time estimates, syllabus documents, and notes). We also collect basic device and usage data through Mixpanel to understand how the app is being used and improve it over time. We do not sell your personal information to anyone. We do not share your data with any third parties without your consent. When you use AI features in the app, the text you enter is processed through OpenAI.

What do I do if something isn't working in the app?

Equal Edge handles all student support directly during the pilot. Your disability services office is not involved in technical support. Contact support@equaledgeu.com or visit equaledgeu.com/support. You can also use the Contact Us option in Settings. Tell us what happened, what you were trying to do, and what device or browser you are using.

How do I delete my account?

You can stop using Equal Edge at any time. There is nothing to cancel and no one to notify. Simply stop opening the app. If you want your data permanently deleted, email privacy@equaledgeu.com. Opting out has no effect on your disability services record or any other academic file. Your school is not notified when you stop using the app. If you were participating in the ambassador program, your points and activity history will be removed along with your account.
