One Company. Five Connected Systems.

Technology confidence takes more than a class.

BTATL connects learning, continued assistance, timely protection, measurement, and community delivery so progress can continue after a single session ends.

The Bridging Technologies ATL ecosystem. Bridging Technologies ATL sits at the top as the parent company, above five connected solutions shown left to right. One, MEASURE: PARLEN, which measures everyday digital independence and tracks progress for individuals, organizations and communities.

One Continuous Cycle

How the BTATL Ecosystem Works

BTATL measures digital confidence, teaches the skills people need, supports them when questions arise, protects them against emerging threats, and measures again to determine what changed.

One company behind all five

  1. Measure

    PARLEN

    Establishes where confidence actually sits across a defined population, so the work that follows addresses a measured gap rather than an assumed one.

  2. Teach

    Talk Tech With Chet

    Delivers the practical skills the measurement identified, through live instruction and continued app-based learning.

  3. Support

    Ask Chet

    Answers the questions that surface later — at ten at night, or three weeks after the class ended.

  4. Protect / Inform

    180Angles

    Turns current, reviewed scam information into plain-language warning signs, manipulation tactics, and verification steps.

Intelligence engine

Keeps the other four current.

180Angles Intelligence supplies current, governed scam intelligence to 180Angles, Ask Chet, and Talk Tech With Chet — so what people are warned about, asked about, and taught reflects what is actually circulating now.

Then PARLEN measures again, and what changed decides what the next cycle teaches.

This is how the ecosystem is designed to work as a whole. Each product carries its own public status above: PARLEN is in development and 180Angles Intelligence is actively developed, offered through a controlled pilot.

From frustration to confidence. From attendance to independence.

  1. Step 1: Understand

    PARLEN helps identify where people stand, where digital-confidence barriers exist, and what skills need attention.

  2. Step 2: Teach

    Talk Tech With Chet delivers practical, step-by-step digital skills people can use in everyday life.

  3. Step 3: Support

    Ask Chet extends help beyond the classroom with approachable, on-demand support for everyday technology questions.

  4. Step 4: Protect

    180Angles helps people recognize scams, check suspicious situations, understand manipulation tactics, and take safer next steps.

  5. Step 5: Measure Again

    PARLEN measures progress after instruction and support so individuals and organizations can see what changed and where additional help may be needed.

  6. Step 6: Improve

    What we learn feeds back into the next cycle of teaching, support, protection, and community programming.

What the pilot included

  • Two community cohorts.
  • Practical smartphone, email, video-call, online-safety, app, and city-service learning.
  • Average self-reported confidence increased from 3.34 to 4.21 out of 5 across seven assessed skills.
  • 4.95 out of 5 participant rating.
  • All 20 final-survey respondents said they would recommend the program.

The reported pre- and post-program knowledge score remained 11.95 out of 12, consistent with a ceiling effect. No increase in the objective knowledge score is claimed.
