Information for your IT administrator

If Loop Teacher is blocked on your school network, this page has everything your IT department needs to allow it — and a message you can send them in one click.

Why it's probably blocked: loopteacher.com is a recently registered domain. Most school filters block new and uncategorized domains automatically, regardless of content. It isn't in a blocked category — on many databases it is in no category yet. Cisco Talos has now classified it as Education (and Computers and Internet), so networks filtering on Cisco data should see it correctly; requests are in with the other major vendors. In the meantime your own IT administrator can allow it in a couple of minutes.

Subject: Allow-list request — loopteacher.com (teacher planning tool)

Hello,

Could loopteacher.com be added to the staff allow-list?

What it is: Loop Teacher, a lesson-planning tool for teachers. I use it
for my own prep.

Why it's blocked: the domain is new, so on many filtering databases it
still comes back as uncategorized or "newly registered". It isn't in a
blocked category — it's in no category yet. Cisco Talos has already
classified it as Education; the other vendors have been asked to do
the same.

What it does on the network: the website is a plain informational site
with a demo. The application itself is a single HTML file that runs
locally in the browser and makes no network connections at all — no
accounts, no cloud storage, no student data leaves the device. Nothing
needs to be opened beyond normal web access to the domain.

Staff-facing only — it isn't something students use.

There is a page with the full technical details here:
https://loopteacher.com/it

Thank you,

Technical summary

Domain	`loopteacher.com` — informational site, demo, documentation and a purchase page
Audience	Teaching staff. Not a student-facing service; students do not log in or use it in class.
What is installed	Nothing. The product is a single HTML file that opens in a browser from the local disk.
Network behaviour of the app	None. The application file contains no `fetch`, `XMLHttpRequest`, `sendBeacon`, WebSocket or EventSource calls, and loads no remote scripts, fonts or images. It cannot transmit data because it has no code that transmits.
Where data is stored	The browser's local storage on that one device. There is no server, no account and no sync. A teacher's backup is a file they save themselves.
Student data	Never leaves the device, because nothing leaves the device. The product is designed for student codes rather than names, and exports offer a codes-only option.
Accounts / SSO	None. Nothing to provision, nothing to deprovision.
Ports / protocols	Ordinary HTTPS to the website. Nothing else.
Category	Education — already classified as Education / Computers and Internet by Cisco Talos. Classification requests are open with the other major filtering vendors.

The short version for a security review: the strongest thing that can be said about this product's network risk is that there is no network code in it. That is a property of the file, verifiable by searching it, not a policy promise that depends on a vendor behaving well.

Two things worth allowing together

The domain — loopteacher.com, so staff can reach the site, the demo and the guide.
The download — the product is delivered as a .zip. Networks that block the Software Downloads category will still stop the file even after the domain is allowed, so it is worth checking both.

Questions

An administrator who wants more detail — a security summary, deployment notes for a whole school or board, or a copy of the file to inspect before allowing it — can write to contact@betterlifeloops.com and will get a direct answer from the person who built it.
