Better data. Better visibility. Better outcomes.
Special education teams struggle with fragmented data, inconsistent progress monitoring, and time-consuming manual reporting. Teachers spend hours working overtime on paperwork while tirelessly supporting their students. Administrators lack real-time visibility into student progress on IEP goals. Meanwhile, compliance risks and audit concerns create constant stress.

fastIEP is a specialized progress monitoring platform designed to help educators track, analyze, and report on IEP goal progress with clarity and consistency. It streamlines data collection, automatically generates visual reports, and gives teams a real-time view of student performance, so they can make informed decisions and stay compliant with confidence.
fastIEP is built for special education teams — teachers, related service providers, and administrators — who are responsible for tracking and reporting on IEP goal progress. It is especially valuable for districts looking to ensure consistency, reduce teacher workload, and gain visibility into student outcomes across schools.
Most IEP systems focus on compliance and document creation. fastIEP fills the critical gap that comes after—the day-to-day tracking of student progress. It does not replace your existing IEP system; instead, it enhances it by making progress monitoring simple, consistent, and actionable.
fastIEP was created by Dr. Ned T. Sahin, a neuroscientist trained at MIT, Harvard, Williams College, and Oxford, who has dedicated his career to providing solutions that give educators clearer, more actionable data to support student growth.
Before founding fastIEP, Ned led innovative research in autism education—developing one of the earliest learning apps for Google Glass to help autistic students build communication skills. That project reinforced his belief that powerful technology should simplify teaching, not add complexity.
Pursuing this idea, Ned reached out to hundreds of SPED teachers and administrators. Across every conversation, the same issue emerged: districts had IEP software, but lacked reliable, real-time progress monitoring data—leaving leaders without visibility and teachers without support.
Ned invented fastIEP to close that gap.
Today, fastIEP gives districts better data, better visibility, and better outcomes by making progress monitoring fast, accurate, and easy for teachers—while giving administrators the transparency they’ve never had before.
I've seen teachers leave the profession they love because of paperwork. fastIEP exists to give them their time back—so they can focus on what really matters: their students.
