01 — Challenge

The Challenge.

The team had to retrofit the LTI 1.3 (Learning Tools Interoperability) standard into Lucid's existing architecture — against aggressive timelines. That meant mastering the protocol while aligning with Lucid's established development ecosystem, demanding deep expertise in enterprise software integration and educational-technology frameworks.

The Challenge.

02 — Solution

The Solution.

The approach prioritized rapid prototyping and iterative development. Proof-of-concept implementations and API-first design established a robust foundation, built on Scala — a stack with a powerful type system and functional capabilities. Beyond execution, Ravn's engineers helped shape solutions to complex challenges. As Stephen, Lucid's Tech Lead, put it: “The project absolutely would not have been a success without Ravn's help. Their engineers are fast, intelligent, and produce great code — and they helped design the solutions to the problems we came across.”

03 — Outcome

The Outcome.

Through tight sprint planning and close collaboration with Lucid's internal teams, the project hit its strategic milestones while holding a high quality bar. The architecture streamlined the integration of Lucid's visual-collaboration tools into Canvas — a seamless experience for educational institutions. The integration is now live to consumers, a testament to the Lucid–Ravn partnership.

In their words

"Their self-directed expertise and swift execution proved invaluable — they exceeded expectations and met every deadline."
