Why Connect With SingleStone?

We believe technology should serve humanity—not the other way around. We study how people work and interact to design systems that enhance their lives. By putting people at the center of innovation, we make college platforms smarter, faster, and far less painful. We get it – after 30 years, it’s time for a new phase of 529 modernization—and we’re here to make it happen. 🚀

  • We streamline, simplify, and modernize 529 platforms so they actually work for users.
  • We make technology platforms user-friendly (imagine that!) and intuitive.
  • We help you go from “ugh, this system” to “wow, this works!”

How We Help 529 Platforms

We know 529 platforms can feel a little retro (and not in the cool way). 

Revamp customer journeys so they’re smooth and frustration-free.

✅ Update application processes that feel like they were built in 1996.

✅ Turn glitchy experiences into seamless, modern interactions.

We take outdated systems and make them intuitive, engaging, and actually usable. Faster onboarding. Fewer support tickets. Happier users. Just better experiences.
