Our story



Before founding Derivita, Devlin Daley was the co-founder of Instructure and co-creator of the Canvas LMS and Ryan Brown was a Senior Software Engineer at Google for 10 years.


After visiting hundreds of schools, Devlin recognized challenges that math educators were facing on a daily basis.


From this experience, Devlin and Ryan decided to face that challenge head-on by re-making the process of creating, building, and managing in-person and online math courses and assessments - simple.


Derivita was then born in 2017, as a first-of-it's kind math courseware and overall assessment platform with a complete Computer Algebra System (CAS) built in.


Today, we have grown to serve colleges, universities, schools, and whole K-12 districts all over the United States. We have expanded our capabilities to go beyond supplemental math courseware and have grown our team and expertise to match the needs of our current clients.


And we're just getting started.
