Key Features

• AE1 rebrand rolled out across the Admin console — new branding, refreshed navigation, and a redesigned sign-in experience delivered on the new admin.ae-1.com home.
• New AE1 Launchpad — a redesigned account hub gives admins and teachers a cleaner, faster landing page for jumping into their tools.
• Terms of Use acceptance tracking — customers now see a clear, versioned Terms of Use prompt at login, with acceptance recorded on their profile.
• Refreshed sign-in, invite, and password-reset emails — matching the new AE1 look and feel for a more consistent, professional experience.
• Stronger sign-out and session handling — signing out now reliably ends the session everywhere, closing a gap where old sessions could linger.
• Sharper permissions on user management — district and school admins now see exactly the schools and roles their account is scoped to when managing users.

How Does It Impact Our Customers?

This release brings the new AE1 experience to the Admin console, giving administrators and teachers a more modern, cohesive interface from the moment they sign in. The new Launchpad makes it faster to get to daily tasks, the refreshed Terms of Use flow keeps organizations compliant with a clear acceptance record, and tightened permissions and session handling mean administrators can trust that access and sign-out behave exactly as expected — reducing support friction and building confidence in the platform.

What Is AE+ 1.7?

AE+ 1.7 is a hosted platform release that carries the Admin console into its new AE1 look, including a rebuilt navigation shell, a redesigned account hub, and a versioned Terms of Use acceptance flow, alongside a broad set of reliability and permissions improvements across login, sign-out, and user management.

Why Does It Matter?

A consistent, modern administrative experience builds trust with the districts and schools who rely on AE+ every day, and a clear, auditable Terms of Use acceptance flow helps customers stay compliant as their agreements evolve. Tighter permissions and more reliable session handling protect student and staff data by ensuring the right people see the right information — reinforcing AE+'s commitment to safety and reliability as the platform grows.
