How My IEP Hero works

Upload your child's IEP, get it analysed against IDEA requirements in under a minute, and walk into the meeting knowing what to ask.

Getting started

Upload your IEP

PDF, Word, or a photo of a printed document. Our AI reads the whole thing, including scans.

Build your child's profile

Add grade, disability category, services and school so the analysis is specific to your child rather than generic.

Get AI-powered insights

In under a minute you see what the document actually says, where it is weak, and what to raise.

The IEP Report Card

Every uploaded IEP is scored across the areas that decide whether a plan is enforceable:

  • Goal Quality — are the annual goals measurable, or too vague to hold anyone to?
  • IDEA Compliance — does the document meet federal requirements?
  • Accommodations — are they specific, or written as "as needed"?
  • Services Alignment — do the services match what the present levels justify?
  • Progress Monitoring — is there a real measurement method, or teacher observation?
  • Transition Planning — for students 14 and older, is there a plan at all?

Smart Letter Generator

Formal letters that districts respond to, drafted for your situation:

  • General communication with the IEP team
  • Accommodation requests
  • Initial evaluation requests
  • Extended School Year (ESY) requests

Meeting Prep Wizard

Choose your meeting type — annual review, eligibility, re-evaluation, or manifestation determination — and get an agenda plus the questions worth asking, such as "Why is progress below target?", "What data supports this?", and "How will services change?"

IEP Sidekick AI

Ask questions about your own documents in plain language — "Is my child's reading goal SMART compliant?" or "What should I ask about Extended School Year?" — and get answers grounded in the file you uploaded.

Your data

Bank-level encryption, secure cloud storage, and your data is never sold.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does My IEP Hero keep my data secure?

We use bank-level encryption for all documents and personal information. Your data is stored securely and never sold to third parties.

How does the AI analysis work?

Upload an IEP and our AI extracts goals, services, and accommodations, then analyzes them against IDEA requirements and SMART criteria to give you actionable insights.

Do I need an IEP to use My IEP Hero?

No. You can also upload 504 Plans, evaluations, and other documents. You can create your child's profile manually and use our tools for meeting prep, letter writing, and rights education.

Can I use this for multiple children?

Yes. Depending on your plan, you can manage profiles for multiple children. Each child gets their own documents, goals, and AI insights.

What states do you support?

All 50 US states. We provide state-specific IEP law resources and timeline information so you know the rules and deadlines that apply to you.

How is this different from hiring an advocate?

My IEP Hero gives you the tools to advocate yourself. We also connect you with certified advocates through our matching system if you want professional support. Many parents use both.
