ARK Yazılım

What is ARK Yazılım?

ARK Yazılım (Arkyazılım) is a software company that builds Orion, a school management and assessment platform for education institutions; Zekai, which writes questions with AI; and Hesabizle, a bookkeeping app for businesses. Our corporate website is www.arkyazilim.com.tr.

Which products do you build?

Orion: an integrated platform for schools and courses covering assessment, virtual optical forms, student administration, accounting, purchasing, CRM, HR, homework, study sessions, timetabling and a mobile app. Zekai (zekai.arkyazilim.com.tr): AI-based, outcome-aligned question, video solution and test book production. Hesabizle (hesabizle.com): bookkeeping for businesses, including invoices, stock, accounts and foreign trade.

Does Orion have a mobile app?

Yes. With Orion's iOS and Android app, students, parents, teachers and managers reach exam results, homework, payment plans and announcements according to their permissions, and notifications arrive instantly.

Can Orion also run the school's accounting?

Yes. The Accounting and Finance module manages accounts, purchase and sales invoices, cheques and notes, the cash book, VAT and foreign currency; collections from parents settle the student's instalments directly. The Purchasing module links request, approval, order and goods receipt to Accounting.

Product and scope

Can we buy Orion modules separately?

Yes. Modules are designed to work independently. You could start with assessment only and add student administration the following term. Used together, they share the same student and term data.

Can rules be tailored to our institution?

Fee types, discounts, scoring formulas, report-card templates, booklet rules and the permission structure are all defined per institution. Most of this is managed on screen, without code changes.

How far does the system scale?

Bulk exam evaluation and report-card generation were built with high-participation exams in mind, on a bulk-processing pipeline. We size the server configuration together based on your scale.

Which languages does the interface support?

The management application and the student portal are available in Turkish and English. Users can change their own language.

Onboarding and migration

Can we migrate our existing data?

Yes. Student, guardian, staff, class and historical term data are migrated during onboarding. We review your data structure together beforehand and produce a mapping plan.

How long does onboarding take?

It depends on the number of modules, the volume of data to migrate and how much institution-specific configuration is needed. We provide a dated plan after the discovery meeting.

Can we switch mid-term?

It is possible, though the start or end of a term is usually preferred. In mid-term switches we typically bring assessment live first and move financial processes at the new term.

Do you provide training?

Yes. We deliver role-based training for management, teaching and student administration teams. The application also carries screen-level help content.

Technical and security

Where is the system hosted?

Two options: on your own servers (on-premise) or in a hosting environment we provide. The choice follows your data policy.

How is personal data protected?

Access is role and permission based, and every screen has its own permission family. Critical records keep a change history and application logs are stored centrally. Students and parents approve the privacy notice on first login.

How are backups handled?

If we host, regular backups and restore tests are part of the service. On your own servers, we define the backup policy together.

Is integration with other systems possible?

Modules work over APIs and API access is token protected. We can assess integration needs with your existing accounting, SMS or coaching systems.

Commercial

How is pricing determined?

Price depends on the modules chosen, the number of students and the hosting preference. Fill in the contact form for an offer tailored to your institution.

Can we see a demo?

Yes. After listening to your processes, we plan a live demo built around the modules that matter to you.

What does support cover?

Usage support, version updates and incident response are within scope. Coverage and response times are set out in the contract.
