What can I do with Companion?
Companion is an accessible learning extension for Chrome and Edge browsers, built for every role in your school:
-
Students: Kami Companion removes barriers to web-based learning with instant, adaptive scaffolds. So every student can access, understand, and express ideas independently.
-
Teachers: Kami Companion delivers read aloud, voice typing, and real-time translation automatically, so every student has what they need without a separate lesson plan or extra prep time.
-
Leaders: Kami Companion replaces multiple browser extensions with one district-managed tool — reducing compliance risk, supporting literacy outcomes, and giving leaders a clear evidence base for inclusion investment.
-
Inclusion & Support staff: Kami Companion delivers instant accommodations across every web-based resource, supporting least restrictive environment requirements and reducing the stigma of pull-out support, without any additional coordination.
- Language Support staff: Real-time translation and vocabulary scaffolds give multilingual learners the language support they need to access grade-level content independently, in their chosen language.
