About us

More than ten years of developing language teaching

Reactored has been building tools for language teachers since 2015. A Finnish learning solution developed together with teachers from the very beginning. Today our solutions cover both teaching and assessment: the Reactored learning environment for language teaching and SIGNAL proficiency assessment for measuring Finnish language skills.

Story

It all started with one question

What if learners could choose for themselves how to complete their tasks?

In language teaching, a task has traditionally come in a single format. One learner learns best by writing, another by speaking, a third by choosing from options. We wanted the same task to adapt to all of these, and the learner to choose how to complete the task the teacher has shared.

Our first tool was created even before actual development began: spelling correction that guided learners towards the right answer as they typed. The idea was simple. When learners practise a new language, they should arrive at the right answer, not be left alone with a mistake.

At the same time, something emerged that we had not set out to build: automatic assessment. When the tasks shared by teachers checked themselves, teachers no longer had to make a separate version for each learner or spend their evenings marking. One task setting served the writer, the speaker and the chooser. Time was freed up for what it belongs to: teaching.

Since then we have worked across all levels of education. We started in basic education, moved on to vocational education, and from there to higher education and adult education. Today our focus is on Finnish language teaching, language skills assessment and profession-specific language training.

Next
AI-powered Reactored
We are currently building an AI-powered version of our learning environment. The goal is to give teachers AI in an easy and meaningful way, without losing Reactored’s special expertise in language learning along the way. Both the Reactored learning environment and SIGNAL are developing in this direction.

What we do

Two products, one goal

We help organisations teach languages more effectively and measure language skills reliably.

How we work

Principles that guide our work

With teachers

Solutions are designed together with language teachers and pedagogical experts, not on their behalf.

The learner’s way of learning

The same task adapts to writing, speaking and choosing. Learners can progress in the way that suits them.

Data protection in order

GDPR-compliant data processing, role-based access control and organisation-specific isolated data.

Fast rollout

The platform is ready to use in days. Integrations with MPASSid, Google and Microsoft.

Where the data is located: SIGNAL language assessment data is stored in Frankfurt, Germany, and is not transferred outside the EU or EEA. The Reactored learning environment runs in Google’s server environment in Zurich, Switzerland, which has an adequacy decision from the European Commission. In both cases, processing complies with the GDPR.

Who we serve

Our clients

Reactored is used by municipalities, employment areas, educational institutions and training companies across Finland, from basic education to adult education.

People

Team

Behind Reactored is a small core team and a broad partner network. We develop our solutions in-house and also work on a project basis with several technology and learning-material producers. This way each project gets exactly the expertise it needs, without the core team becoming heavy.
