About this opportunity

Written by GovTribe AI ·

The School Board of Hillsborough County, Florida (HCPS) is conducting a single/sole source procurement for the Magic School, Inc. AI educational platform, issued pursuant to Florida Administrative Code Rule 6A-1.012(12)(d). The procurement is not a competitive solicitation and was posted on January 16, 2026, with a response deadline of seven calendar days from publication. The Magic School platform is an all-in-one, multimodal AI system designed for educational institutions, featuring over 80 AI tools for teachers and 50+ AI tools for students, including Raina (an educational AI chatbot utilizing retrieval-augmented generation technology), data analytics capabilities, student monitoring and moderation features, single sign-on (SSO) and student information system (SIS) integrations for 10+ learning management systems, customizable writing feedback guided by teacher inputs, Adobe image generation functionality, professional development sessions, and in-app chat support. The vendor asserts that no competing products or alternative vendors can provide equivalent functionality due to the platform's proprietary, copyrighted nature and exclusive manufacturing and distribution by Magic School, Inc. from Boulder, Colorado. Interested organizations must submit responses via www.myvendorlink.com within the seven-day posting period, providing clear and convincing documentation demonstrating capability to meet or exceed stated requirements, with "like" defined as equal, equivalent, and/or identical.

There are no identified set-aside designations, disadvantaged enterprise restrictions, or other limitations on respondent eligibility noted in this procurement. The documentation does not identify any incumbent vendors, current contractors, or existing infrastructure requiring integration beyond the specified SIS and learning management system compatibility requirements. Magic School, Inc. confirms there are no authorized agents or dealers and that a single price exists for the product due to exclusive distribution and marketing rights; however, no specific award value or budget range is disclosed in the procurement notice. The General Manager of Procurement Services or designee, in conjunction with the Procurement Officer, maintains sole discretion to determine whether to proceed with the single/sole source award or open the procurement to competitive bidding based on responses received during the seven-day review period.
