A student built Beyop for his own school. Today he and his partner bring it to districts all across California.
Who's behind Beyop
Ore Porat
Founder
Ore built Beyop and leads its product and development. He's studying aerospace engineering at CU Boulder. In high school, he logged over 400 community service hours of his own, including volunteering as a Fire Explorer, chairing his city's Youth Commission, and running the scoreboard and clock at his school's varsity football and basketball games.
Cooper works with schools to bring Beyop to new districts. He's a student in the College of Letters & Science at UC Berkeley. In high school, he served as president of his school's Amnesty International chapter, volunteered with Operation Smile and Children's Hospital Los Angeles, and ran the chain crew at his school's varsity football games.
Ore built Beyop while he was a student at his own high school. There, students logged community service hours through a form but couldn't see their own totals. To find out how many they had, they emailed the CSL coordinator, who tracked everyone in a spreadsheet.
Ore built Beyop to fix that.
Students log their hours and see their verified totals anytime, and staff review and approve everything in one place. The school still uses it, with over 25,000 hours logged so far.
What we believe
The other tools for this cost thousands of dollars, so a lot of schools can't afford them. Beyop has one flat price per school, it's transparent, and there's lower pricing for Title I schools.
Built the right way
Because Beyop holds student information, it's built to meet FERPA and California student data privacy law, and we never sell student data.
