The modern roadmap for life after high school — built for students with IEPs.
DetermiNext combines a structured student assessment, intelligent career matching, and automated plan generation into one seamless system — so educators can focus on students, not paperwork.
A guided 20-question wizard captures each student's Preferences, Interests, Needs, and Strengths — entirely at their own pace.
Gemini AI maps each student's PINS profile to the RIASEC framework and surfaces career pathways that genuinely fit who they are.
One assessment produces two outputs: an engaging student career guide and a compliance-ready IEP transition plan for the educator.
Every assessment is built on the PINS framework — a holistic, multi-domain approach that evaluates each student as a whole individual preparing for life after school.
What the student prefers in learning environments, activities, and day-to-day interactions.
Areas that naturally engage and motivate the student — the starting point for meaningful career alignment.
Supports required for success in school and beyond — framed around what helps the student thrive.
Academic, social, and functional abilities — the foundation for building a confident, self-determined future.
Once the assessment is complete, DetermiNext maps the student's PINS profile to the RIASEC (Holland Codes) model — a widely validated career development framework — to surface best-fit pathways unique to each student.

One assessment. Two fully aligned outputs. DetermiNext delivers engagement and compliance simultaneously — automatically.
For Students
Accessible, engaging, and empowering — designed to help students understand themselves and explore possibilities.
For Educators
Compliance-ready documentation designed for educators — reducing paperwork while improving plan quality.
A clear, end-to-end workflow where every step is connected — from initial student input to final IEP documentation.
Students complete the PINS-based digital wizard at their own pace — no login required, just a code from their teacher.
Responses are scored and mapped using the validated Holland Codes model to identify career domain alignment.
Gemini AI interprets the combined PINS + RIASEC data, finding patterns and meaningful insights for each student.
Best-fit career pathways are surfaced and the student selects the one that resonates most with their goals.
Measurable Postsecondary Goals (MPGs) and transition services are automatically generated from the analysis.
Two fully aligned reports are produced instantly — one engaging student guide and one IEP-ready document.
Instead of choosing between student engagement and IEP compliance, DetermiNext delivers both — bridging the critical gap that every special education team faces.
Focuses on individual strengths, preferences, and needs — not just academic performance.
Uses validated frameworks (PINS + RIASEC) and AI analysis for reliable, evidence-based results.
Supports Indicator 13 requirements — documentation is structured for IEP compliance from the start.
Reduces time spent on paperwork while improving the quality and accuracy of transition plans.
