It is home to a passionate community of global educators, who believe in the tremendous power of technology in taking education to new heights.

    About MagicBox™

    MagicBox™ is a cloud-based mobile learning platform, designed especially keeping in mind the needs of K-12 content publishers. It offers a simple and convenient way to create and distribute rich interactive e-books, while also being able to track learners’ progress through the analytics dashboard. The platform is equipped with a state-of-the-art conversion tool, which can convert PDF files to high-fidelity, IDPF compliant, ePub3 format, with a click of a button.

    We are dedicated to creating a learning environment that caters to the individual needs and learning style of every student. Through videos, interactive activities, games and simulations, students can customize their preferred content-delivery styles, something that will help them retain information better and faster than traditional methods of learning.

    With the platform’s custom branded apps, they can download e-books, read and add annotations in the offline mode and participate in a collaborative learning space. Instructors can use our powerful analytics dashboard to assess the learning outcomes of individual students. They can identify and solve knowledge gaps through various options, such as embedding assessments or video and audio links in the content, for greater engagement metrics.

    Accessibility is one of the most important aspects today in native app development. For this, we include accessibility experts in our development and testing teams. In addition, the MagicBox™ platform is supported across devices, being compatible with iOS, Android, Windows, Chromebook and Mac. We employ Digital Rights Management (DRM) practices to make online publishing a secure space for educators and students alike.
