Go Bee Zap Public education

Brazil now pays for measured learning. We help school networks deliver it.

Since 2020, part of Brazil's federal school funding has been tied to results. Go Bee Zap prepares students for the national learning assessment, gets them to the test, and shows each municipal education department where inequality lives — school by school.

Why this is funding, not just pedagogy

From a student who learns to money that arrives

Fundeb is Brazil's main school-funding mechanism, topped up by the federal government. Since Constitutional Amendment 108/2020, part of that top-up is no longer automatic: the VAAR share — 2.5 percentage points of it — only reaches networks that meet a set of conditions and improve learning while reducing inequality.

The five conditions — and where we actually help

Two of them are administrative or legislative decisions that no platform can make for a network. The other three depend on what happens to students. That is where Go Bee Zap works.

I
School principals chosen on merit

Appointed on technical criteria, or chosen with the school community from candidates who passed a merit assessment.

An administrative decision
II
At least 80% of students sit SAEB

In every assessed grade, in every network. A student absent on test day is a condition missed.

We help: reaching families on WhatsApp before and on test day
III
Less inequality, as measured by SAEB

Socioeconomic and racial gaps in learning, measured by the national assessment.

We help: a school-by-school map and individual support where the gap is widest
IV
State–municipality cooperation

A formal cooperation regime written into state law and in force.

State legislation
V
Curricula aligned with the national curriculum (BNCC)

Approved under each network's own education system.

We support: learning paths and mock tests built on the BNCC

Plain-language summary of article 14, § 1 of Brazil's Law 14.113/2020. Meeting the conditions is the network's responsibility; Go Bee Zap is a tool for the ones that depend on learning and participation.

Assessment preparation

Skill by skill, not textbook by textbook

A national assessment does not ask what the class covered. It asks, skill by skill, what each student can do. Preparation has to be the same size.

01

Skill-level diagnosis

Mock tests built on the official SAEB frameworks — Portuguese and Mathematics, in the grades the assessment covers.

02

Support where they got stuck

Each student gets, on WhatsApp, the path for the exact skill they missed — three to five minutes a day, no new app.

03

Participation on test day

Families receive the calendar, the reminder and the reason why — weeks ahead of the assessment.

04

Teacher development

Short courses on WhatsApp about the network's weakest skills, with participation reports.

Who follows along

The whole network looking at the same data, each at its own level

The same three-reader model that already powers our essay correction. See a real report.

Education departmentThe network

Where inequality lives.

By network, district and school: expected participation, weakest skills and the gap between the best and the worst school.

Ready for public accountability.

SchoolPrincipal and teachers

Who is stuck, on which skill.

Class by class, student by student. Teachers walk in knowing what to review; principals see who may miss the test.

No spreadsheets: it comes from the students' own answers.

FamilyOn WhatsApp

What to do at home.

Attendance, progress and test day, in the language of home.

Official, recorded communication — not an informal group chat.

“Go Bee Zap was key to delivering personalised entrepreneurship content over WhatsApp, which led to greater engagement and retention among our students. With 50 participants, we had high participation and very positive feedback.”

Translated from Portuguese.

A public school, a full school year

It started because students asked for it. It was renewed for 2025.

Built for Brazil. Ready for your country.

What changes when we work in another country

Everything on this page follows Brazilian law and Brazil's assessment system. The engine does not depend on either. Four things get configured for your context — and so does who we work with: in a centralised system, the ministry and its regional offices; in a federal system like Brazil's, states and municipalities.

Your national assessment

SAEB's frameworks are replaced by yours, mapped skill by skill.

SAEB → your assessment

Your curriculum

Learning paths and mock tests are rebuilt on your national curriculum.

BNCC → your curriculum

Your data-protection law

Consent, access and retention follow local rules for minors' data.

LGPD · ECA → GDPR or local law

Your procurement rules

We work within how your public buyers contract innovation.

Brazilian procurement → yours

For ministries, education departments and partners

Let's talk about your country's system.

In one meeting we show how the model works in Brazil and what it would take to run it under your assessment, curriculum and law.
