How we help

Odyssey makes educational choice programs easier to access, administer, and scale. Through our purpose-built technology platform, we help governments and Scholarship Granting Organizations (SGOs) deliver education savings, scholarship, and school choice programs that empower families to find the educational opportunities that best meet their children's needs.

By connecting families, program administrators, schools, and education providers in a single platform, Odyssey streamlines every stage of program administration—from applications and eligibility management to payments, purchasing, communications, and customer support. Our secure, modern infrastructure reduces administrative burden while creating a seamless experience for all stakeholders.

Since our founding, Odyssey has helped hundreds of thousands of students access educational funding and opportunities through school choice programs. Today, our platform supports more than 200,000 students and administers over $2 billion in educational benefits annually across multiple states. As a trusted partner to governments and SGOs nationwide, Odyssey helps transform policy into impact, enabling education programs to grow efficiently while expanding access to high-quality educational opportunities for the families they serve.
