STUDENTS GETA UNIVERSE.YOU KEEP THE KEYS.
Potato is the multiplayer game world built only for K-12 schools. Every player is a verified student. Every room is visible to your staff. Strangers aren't filtered out — they're impossible by design. In the browser today, AR/VR next.

Open-world gaming was never built for schools.
Platforms like Roblox were designed to connect kids with the entire internet — and the entire internet showed up. Federal litigation has put the company's own internal numbers on the record.
Schools deserve a game world where the front door belongs to them. That's why we built Potato.

Same gaming energy. Completely different rules.
Potato keeps everything students love about game worlds — multiplayer, creation, leveling up — and rebuilds the rest around one principle: the school owns the keys.
A locked front door
Students enter with your school's private code. No public signup, no friend requests from the internet, no DMs from outside. Strangers don't get filtered — they never get in.
Glass walls for staff
Every room, every player, every session — live on your Overwatch dashboard. One click to watch any room, suspend any student, or end any session.
XP that means something
Games map to Math, Reading, Science, and History standards. XP is earned through mastery — right answers, not just screen time — and leaderboards never leave the school.
Live in under an hour.
No lengthy IT setup. No hardware required to start. Three steps to a game world your school controls.
Your school signs up. Students get a code.
A principal or IT admin creates the account in 10 minutes. Students enter with your school's private code — no email signup, no social media, no public profile.
Students play. Staff sees everything, live.
Every student plays only with verified classmates. The Overwatch dashboard shows every room and every player — with one-click view, suspend, or end-session.
Teachers assign games. XP tracks mastery.
XP is tied to learning — get the answer right, earn the points. Teachers see progress against standards in real time.
Built by students. Played by classmates.
The Game Creation Studio gives every student drag-and-drop tools to ship a real game. Teachers set the genre and the standard. The whole school plays — and nobody else.

Hear it from the people in the building.
We finally have a gaming platform we can actually control. No strangers, no drama — just learning through games. I can see every room, every student, every second. That's what I've been asking for for years.

My son used to sneak onto Roblox the second I left the room. Now he asks ME if he can use Potato because his whole class is on it and they're doing a math tournament. I didn't think I'd ever say this — but I love that he's gaming.

Setup took 20 minutes — no exaggeration. The admin dashboard shows us exactly what every student played, when they played it, and who they played with. Our IT director was genuinely impressed, and he's not easily impressed.
