A Canadian company building a student-owned record of effort beyond grades. It started with one student's question and a kitchen table.
Grades alone no longer separate strong students. Jobs ask for proof of skills, not just paper. And the work happening outside school is the work that builds people.
Y2O holds all of it. Logged by the student, confirmed by the people who saw it, owned by the student for good.
Three people, three voices, the same kitchen table.
If grades don't show all the work, then where does the work go?
Asked the question that started Y2O. Keeps the product honest to what students will actually use.
If a student can prove what they did, the record becomes the leverage.
Twenty years building businesses and hiring early-career people, watching strong candidates lose ground because the paper trail didn't keep up.
The record has to be simple enough to use, and strong enough to trust.
Decades designing software that handles trust and verification. Makes sure the record is private by default.
Varya was in high school doing what most students do. Saturday tutoring, a weekend job, the robotics build team, helping with the family business. Stretched thin, doing real work.
None of it was on her transcript or a résumé, and she had no way to show it on applications.
The honest answer to her question was nowhere. So we started building somewhere.
If grades don't show all the work, then where does the work go?
Y2O is the record we wished she'd had in Grade 9.If a choice doesn't pass these, it doesn't ship.
The record belongs to the student, after graduation too.
A real person who saw the work beats any algorithm.
Coaches, employers, and programs shape confirmation.
If they wouldn't use it on the bus, we redesign it.
The record has to work past Grade 12.
