Nolej and Cantoo have joined forces to address the unique educational needs of today and tomorrow. By combining their expertise, the two companies aim to create an inclusive, efficient, and accessible educational ecosystem.
Through this collaboration, Nolej brings its innovative approach to creating intelligent content for learners and professionals, while Cantoo ensures this content is accessible to students with special educational needs, ranging from DYS students to multilingual learners. Together, they strive to reduce learning inequalities and cater to the diverse needs of school and training audiences.
A Strategic Collaboration for Accessibility
The EdTech leader Nolej recently gained international recognition by winning the GESA Global EdTech Startups Awards at the BETT show in London and is now extending its trajectory toward societal impact. By integrating Cantoo’s expertise, Nolej ensures that its AI-driven educational content becomes accessible to students with disabilities or specific needs, including non-French-speaking students. This partnership emphasizes inclusion, offering a tool that enables educators and trainers to optimize the personalization and accessibility of their content for everyone.
Founded in 2019 in Lille, Cantoo is a pioneer in supporting students with special educational needs through Cantoo Scribe, an inclusive digital solution that facilitates access to education for DYS, ASD, ADHD, visually impaired, and multilingual learners. Since 2024, Cantoo has introduced Cantoo Web, an assistant that makes educational digital content accessible to all. Equipped with advanced features such as text adaptation, text-to-speech, speech recognition, a dictionary, and a translator, Cantoo Web integrates seamlessly into school environments, fully meeting the needs of students. By incorporating its tools into Nolej’s educational initiatives, Cantoo further strengthens its promise of accessible education for all.
From Schools to Professional Training: A Continuous Commitment to Societal Impact
Beyond its engagement in the school sector, Nolej is now targeting professional training under the leadership of its new CEO, Nejma Belkhdim. Through transparent AI technologies, Nolej offers generative tools that simplify the creation of customized content tailored to the needs of over 70,000 trainers. This contributes to skill development in an increasingly digitalized world. By integrating seamlessly with e-learning platforms such as Moodle, Nolej enables trainers to track learners’ progress and create interactive modules, ranging from quizzes to educational videos, meeting the increasingly diverse demands of training programs.
This partnership reflects a global vision for education and training: it is no longer just about transmitting knowledge but creating inclusive, engaging, and accessible learning environments for everyone. By providing access to cutting-edge technology, Nolej and Cantoo promote learning tailored to each student’s unique needs, regardless of their challenges, background, or status.
