About IncluShift
IncluShift, Inc. is a Delaware-incorporated educational technology company building the federal operating system for U.S. special education — a 10-product, clinically grounded ecosystem designed to resolve systemic compliance failures, support educators, and ensure every learner receives research-informed instruction.
Mission
7.5 million American students receive special education services under the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act. Yet the infrastructure supporting these students — the IEP documentation, the intervention tracking, the compliance reporting, the family communication — remains fragmented across dozens of disconnected tools, paper binders, and spreadsheets.
IncluShift exists to replace that fragmentation with one standards-aligned platform. From early intervention at birth through vocational independence, from the student's device to the superintendent's dashboard — every data point, every intervention, every compliance record flows through a single, FERPA-compliant, research-informed ecosystem.
Core Values
Research-Informed
Every product is grounded in peer-reviewed research. We do not ship features without a peer-reviewed citation trail.
Privacy-First
Zero-PII architecture. No analytics on our website. No tracking in our products. FERPA and COPPA compliant by design.
Accessibility-Forward
WCAG 2.2 AAA compliance. Universal input support via the IncluAccess engine. Accessibility is a feature, not an afterthought.
Educator-Centered
Built by special educators, for special educators. Every design decision asks: does this reduce teacher burden?
Founder & CEO
Davit Janunts
Davit Janunts is a three-time U.S. Department of State exchange program participant — Fulbright Foreign Student Program, Edmund S. Muskie Internship Program, and IREX Teaching Excellence and Achievement Program — with over thirteen years at the intersection of direct special-education practice, university-level research, and mathematics pedagogy. He earned his Master of Education in Special Education from Lehigh University in 2020 and co-authored a peer-reviewed systematic review published in Exceptional Children — the flagship journal of the Council for Exceptional Children (Morin, Janunts, et al., 2024, 90(2), 145–163; DOI 10.1177/00144029231165506).
As a research assistant at Lehigh under Dr. Kristi Morin, Ph.D., BCBA-D, Davit contributed to federally funded special education research, including the development of an autism screener and pre-service teacher curriculum for supporting students on the autism spectrum in Sierra Leone. He completed the What Works Clearinghouse Group Design Standards training through the Institute of Education Sciences (U.S. Department of Education, 2020) and the CITI Social and Behavioral Research Ethics program (2019).
Through direct teaching — first in rural Armenia, then at Yerevan 2nd Psycho-Educational Support Center where he developed individualized education plans for over thirty students with complex learning and behavioral needs — Davit observed firsthand the systemic burden documented in the literature: special educators spend approximately 17% of their workday, roughly 5–7 hours per week, on paperwork and compliance documentation (Vannest & Hagan-Burke, 2010). He recognized that the absence of unified, UDL-based software was accelerating the national SPED teacher exodus.
Combining clinical expertise in special education with a background in Computer Systems Analysis and AI-driven automation, Davit architected the IncluShift ecosystem — eleven integrated applications, eighteen shared packages, and over 250 peer-reviewed citations embedded across the clinical specifications — purpose-built to resolve federal compliance gaps, support educators, and ensure every learner receives research-informed instruction regardless of geography or district resources.
