Hensun Innovation LLC

Hensun Innovation LLC, a woman-owned and Asian-Pacific American–owned small business based in Spokane, Washington, develops AI-enhanced educational technology platforms for K-12 math instruction, operating as both a federal grant recipient (33% of recent awards) and as a subrecipient on education-focused research initiatives funded by the National Science Foundation and the Department of Education. The vendor is organized as a limited liability company and holds SBA certifications as a woman-owned small business and minority-owned business, competing in the educational technology and AI-assisted instruction space.

Hensun's federal footprint centers on K-12 STEM education. The vendor received a $275,000 NSF Technology, Innovation, and Partnerships (CFDA 47.084) STTR Phase I project grant (July 1 to December 31, 2024) to develop Colleague, an AI-enhanced platform that assists K-12 math teachers with personalized lesson generation, formative assessment, auto-scoring, and diagnostic reporting using retrieval-augmented generation and domain-specific generative AI models. The platform targets under-resourced schools and aims to improve student math proficiency and critical-thinking skills while preparing students for an AI-enhanced workforce. The award period included iterative co-design with thirty math educators and A/B testing with thousands of educators to refine the platform. Hensun also serves as a subrecipient on two University of Washington–led awards under the AmplifyLearn national research and development initiative, which similarly focuses on leveraging generative AI to enhance K-12 mathematics instruction (sub-awards dated March 26, 2025, and November 3, 2025).

The National Science Foundation and the Department of Education Institute of Education Sciences account for 100% of recent awards. Activity shows early-stage growth: one award in 2024 and two in 2025, with combined dollars obligated totaling $1.7 million. The vendor's capability portfolio is narrowly focused on AI-driven instructional support and educational platform development for K-12 mathematics, with no contract footprint or GSA vehicle presence in the source data.
