Cadmus

Cadmus (operating at cadmus.io) is a research-backed, university-partnered assessment platform engineered for higher education institutions. Founded in 2015 and headquartered in Melbourne, Australia, Cadmus specializes in delivering a fully scaffolded, end-to-end assessment ecosystem designed to streamline the academic workflow for both educators and students. Unlike traditional fragmented assessment tools, Cadmus integrates seamlessly with learning management systems (LMS) to provide a unified, secure platform for creating, managing, and analyzing written assessments. Under the hood, the platform leverages structured templates and real-time analytics to promote academic integrity while reducing administrative burdens. This allows universities to enhance student success through scaffolded support, while educators gain actionable insights to guide timely interventions. Backed by a $2.17M funding round, including investments from the University of Melbourne and ASU Enterprise Partners’ RealmSpark, Cadmus is positioned to redefine assessment workflows in an era of digital learning.
