What we actually built

Capabilities

We ended up building multiple things that talk to each other — a lesson planner, a data layer that handles real or AI-generated sensor readings, end-to-end assessments, a community resource library, a confidential development companion for educators, and a decision lab. None of them stand alone, and the connections between them are where most of the value sits.

Some of what's below is shipping today. Some is in build. Some is on the roadmap. The Current Status page tells you which is which — honestly. Sales pages that pretend everything is live aren't worth your time.

A companion to the living classroom — with 'screen time' kept to an absolute minimum.

Every capability below exists to augment live, hands-on, project-based, student-centred learning across the inter-, multi- and trans-disciplinary spectrum — and to develop competency in the people: the student, the educator, and the school. The tools serve the teacher in the room; they never replace it. Simulated data appears once here — only as a fairness fallback for classes without kit.

Planning

AI Lesson Planner

Generate interdisciplinary, multidisciplinary, or transdisciplinary lesson plans via Gemini, aligned to IB PYP / MYP / DP, Cambridge, UK, Finnish, Bulgarian, or NGSS. Save to the local library or export as an .edulesson package.

What this means in practice →

What it does: Pick a topic, ability range, framework, and outcome. The AI returns objectives, materials, step-by-step activities, success criteria, differentiation suggestions, and timing. Edit any part and the AI re-plans around your edits.

How it helps: Cuts a routine lesson plan from 45–60 minutes to 5–10. Frees the rest of your prep for the bits that actually need YOU — the specific child, the specific question, the bit of the room you can't predict.

What changes for you: You stop spending Sunday evenings on plans and start spending them on what's missing in the plan. The AI does the convergent work; your time goes to the divergent work.

Data

Visualise the data you gather

Live sensor data from your learners' own experiments on a responsive multi-channel view with time navigation, thresholds, and signal controls; import CSV, export anything back out. And where a class genuinely has no kit, the AI can generate realistic data so the experiment is still teachable — a fairness fallback, not the aim.

What this means in practice →

What it does: Describe an experiment in plain language ("a bouncing ball impacting the floor five times", "CO₂ rising in a closed classroom") and the AI generates physically plausible sensor data your students can read like real readings — with time, thresholds, multi-channel overlay.

How it helps: The real experiment is always the aim. But where the budget or the kit genuinely isn't there yet, a school can still teach the sensor-led STE(A)M lesson rather than skip it — and when real hardware arrives, the same view shows live readings instead, same workflow, no relearning. The fallback keeps the door open; it never closes it on doing it for real.

What changes for you: "We don't have the kit" stops being a reason a child misses out. The point stays the live experiment and the real analysis, discussion and discovery around it — the fallback just makes sure every classroom can reach it.

Assessment

End-to-end assessments

AI-generate differentiated assessments tied to competencies. Deliver live over your Wi-Fi hotspot with students joining by QR code. Auto-mark MCQs, run gap analysis per student, class, and educator with AI-assisted interpretation.

What this means in practice →

What it does: Generate the assessment from a topic + competency list. Push it to students' phones over your laptop's Wi-Fi hotspot — no network admin needed. Watch responses arrive live. Auto-mark the closed questions; the AI offers an interpretation of each open answer that you can accept, edit, or override.

How it helps: Closes the loop between "what I taught" and "what they learned" within the same lesson. Gap analysis tells you which child needs a different next step, and which whole-class teaching point you missed. Educator-effectiveness reports surface YOUR patterns over time.

What changes for you: Marking happens at the speed of teaching, not at the kitchen table at 9pm. The follow-up conversation with each child is data-led, specific, and timely.

Community

Resources Repository

Cloud-hosted library of educational resources — YouTube, papers, documents, websites — tagged across ten taxonomies and carrying the author's real story: the surprisingly hard part, the moment of joy, the single most important tip.

What this means in practice →

What it does: Search by subject, age band, lesson length, framework, ability level, language, format, source type, and seven other angles. Each entry carries the contributing educator's voice — what was hard, what worked, the one tip they'd give next time. Semantic search finds resources that overlap by intent, not just keyword.

How it helps: Stops you reinventing the lesson someone three towns away has already polished and published. The "surprisingly hard part" field saves you the surprise. The "moment of joy" field tells you why it's worth doing.

What changes for you: You start a new topic from someone else's hard-won learning curve, not from a blank page. And when you publish your own, the next educator gets the same head start — give-to-get, applied to the staff room.

Educator development

PDP — coaching companion

PIN-gated confidential reflection. Educators have AI coaching conversations on their chosen competencies and produce SMART / GAP-SWOT / Feedback sheets, journal entries, and optional AI summaries. Nothing leaves the device unless chosen.

What this means in practice →

What it does: A confidential AI coaching companion that walks you through reflection on YOUR chosen competencies — not your school's, not your appraiser's. Produces structured outputs (SMART goals, GAP-SWOT analysis, feedback summaries, journal entries) you can keep, share, or shred. PIN-gated; data-encrypted at rest; zero-knowledge by design.

How it helps: Reflection that's actually private — not "private until your appraiser asks" but cryptographically yours. Coaching that doesn't require booking a coach, scheduling a slot, or worrying about what gets said. Available at 6am or 11pm, your call.

What changes for you: You stop saving the hard reflection for the rare safe conversation, and start doing it weekly because the safe conversation is always there. Also a sister Standalone PDP product for adult learners outside education entirely.

Reasoning

Decision Lab

Scenario-based anonymous engagement. Desktop version hosts local sessions over the laptop's Wi-Fi hotspot; cloud version (launcher.iseeitnowpolls.org) reaches remote cohorts. Eight bundled scenario sets bilingual in EN and BG.

What this means in practice →

What it does: Run a scenario-based conversation across a room or a remote cohort, where everyone responds anonymously and the AI surfaces patterns in the answers — not "majority wins" but "here's where people split, here's where they unexpectedly agree, here's the question still unanswered." Eight bundled scenario sets cover ethics, planning, leadership, classroom dilemmas,

and more8 scenario sets bundled today, more added with contributions — spanning classroom dilemmas (the borderline-cheating answer, the hostile parent meeting), leadership conversations (a colleague's underperformance you need to name), and community-scale ethics (resource allocation when needs outweigh budget, contested change that splits the staff room). Each scenario walks the room through anonymously, surfaces where the room agrees + where it splits.
.

How it helps: Anonymous-by-design means the quiet voice gets weight equal to the loud one. The AI's pattern-finding gives a facilitator a starting point that isn't "what does the most senior person think". Same engine works in a school staff meeting, a board room, or a community workshop.

What changes for you: The conversation that matters happens, instead of the conversation the loudest person wanted. The room learns where it agrees and where it doesn't — both are useful.

What ties the six together

Six things, side-by-side is just 'a bundle'. What makes this one product are the infrastructure choices we made — the parts you don't notice until they're missing and you realise how much you need them. All of these are live today.

Four accessibility themes

Dark, Light, Dyslexia-Friendly (OpenDyslexic3 + warm palette), and High Contrast. Themed consistently through the desktop app and student-facing live-assessment pages.

Bilingual, extensible

Full EN + BG language packs driven by JSON. New languages drop into user_resources/languages/ and are auto-discovered — no code change.

Institutional licensing

Supabase-hosted licence keys cryptographically bound to the educator's machine. 30-day offline grace. Per-institution admin view with one-click bilingual renewal email templates.

Subject Packs

Forestry, Intelligent Buildings, Eco Systems, Natural Resources — each ships as a modular pack with taxonomy contributions and a zero-cost Stage-1 lesson. More driven by educator requests.

Community Lesson Hub

Educators publish lessons to a cloud hub and share four-character codes (EDU-XXXX) with colleagues. Import in one click.

Live assessment delivery

Local HTTP server + SSE monitoring dashboard. Students log in with class PIN + name (pulled from roster), answer at their own pace with per-student timers, see immediate feedback on MCQs, and can resume after a browser crash.

Built for the situations other systems gloss over

  • The Educator needs developing too. That obvious thing — somehow most platforms forget this. So the PDP sits inside the same product as the lesson planner, not as a separate purchase three menus away.
  • DEvelopment cant be accurately and reliably appraised in one day. So we look regularly and carefully.
  • When you want to complete experiments, you need good equipment and reliable support systems. We bring these things
  • Multilingual on day one. New languages land when someone asks for theirs to be included — In fact you can even do this yourself in less than 5 minutes.
  • An educator who opens the PDP at 11pm to write something honest needs to know nothing of it reaches anyone else. Not "private until your appraiser asks" — cryptographically yours. That's a baseline, not a features.
If you're skeptical

"Another quiz tool. Another LMS. Another thing to learn."

It isn't. We didn't set out to compete with the testing platforms or the LMS giants — they do their job. What we saw was a gap: educators wanted help that worked across planning, assessment, reflection, and development without making them stitch five tools together. So we built one that does the connecting. If after reading the page you still feel it's familiar territory, please write and tell us why — that's how this gets sharper.

How we work

A small thing that works honestly beats a big thing described aspirationally

We chose to ship one connected slice properly before stretching wide. You can see what's live, what's in build, and what's on the roadmap — separately, with no marketing-page sleight of hand. The capabilities you see described above aren't all live this minute. The Current Status page tells you which are.
