ClearScholar, founded in 2016, operated as a student engagement platform provider targeting higher education institutions. The company was co-founded by Jason Konesco, who also served as its CEO. Konesco brought extensive experience from the education sector, having previously been the president and CEO of Harrison College. His background in both traditional higher education administration and educational technology informed ClearScholar's mission to improve student outcomes.

The Indianapolis-based company developed a mobile application designed to connect students with college administrators and faculty, aiming to keep learners engaged with campus life. ClearScholar's business model focused on providing its software to colleges and universities, which could then offer the app to their students. The platform's revenue was generated by selling subscriptions for its app to these educational institutions. The company was a portfolio company of the startup studio High Alpha.

The ClearScholar mobile app offered a personalized experience for students, featuring a digital student ID and customized feeds of campus news, events, and activities tailored to their interests. For administrators, the platform provided valuable data on student interaction, offering insights into engagement levels and allowing them to target efforts to increase student satisfaction and success. A key benefit was the centralization of information, simplifying communication between students and the university. The app also integrated with other enterprise systems, such as Salesforce Service Cloud, to create a mobile-first, self-service knowledge base for students, addressing common queries like IT help desk issues. In June 2018, ClearScholar was acquired by Civitas Learning, a provider of predictive analytics tools for higher education. This acquisition integrated ClearScholar's mobile engagement technology with Civitas's broader data intelligence platform, aiming to provide more timely and personalized support to students from admission through to graduation.
