The workflows

// 8 production-grade patterns
01

AI Tutoring at Scale

Students get 24/7 personalized tutoring across subjects — math, writing, science, languages. The AI adapts to skill level and explains concepts in multiple ways until understanding lands.

Common StackKhanmigo, MagicSchool AI, Quizlet AI · subject-specialized LLMs
02

Lesson Plan and Curriculum Generation

Teachers generate lesson plans aligned to state standards, differentiated for skill levels, with rubrics and assessment items included. Cuts prep time from hours to minutes.

03

Grading and Feedback Acceleration

AI grades essays, short answers, and even code with detailed feedback. Teachers review and adjust rather than starting from scratch. Especially powerful for writing-heavy courses.

Common StackBrisk Teaching, GPT-5 with rubric prompts, Gradescope AI
04

Academic Advising and Course Selection

AI helps students plan course sequences, identify graduation requirements, surface scheduling conflicts, and explore career-aligned paths. Replaces wait-list advising appointments.

Administrative Process Automation

AI handles enrollment workflows, transcript processing, financial aid pre-qualification, and routine student services queries. Frees staff for high-touch student support.
