AI Transparency
AI Technology
& Classroom Use
How our AI works, what it does with your content, and how it supports teaching and learning.
The AI does not know your students. You do.
We believe teachers deserve a clear, honest explanation of how AI is working in their classroom. This page explains every AI-powered feature on our platform — from how we process your uploaded materials to how we generate feedback and grading. No jargon, no vague reassurances. Just transparency.
"AI-generated content is always a starting point. Teacher review is always the final step."
— The principle behind every AI feature we build
How It Works
Six things you should know
about our AI.
Powered by Google Gemini
Secondary AI is powered by Google's Gemini AI models. We leverage this cutting-edge technology to provide nuanced, context-aware, and pedagogically sound responses for chatbots, feedback, grading, and teaching insights. Gemini's advanced capabilities enable our platform to understand complex educational contexts and adapt to diverse teaching styles.
Your Content Is Never Used for Public AI Training
This is critical: your uploaded teaching materials, lesson plans, and student interactions are NOT used to train Google's public AI models. We have strict data processing agreements in place that ensure your content remains private and is used exclusively to power YOUR AI workflows. Your intellectual property and curriculum stay yours, always.
Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG)
When you upload teaching materials, we use RAG to make your AI assistant truly curriculum-specific. Your documents are securely processed and indexed into a knowledge base for your chatbot. When a student asks a question, the AI retrieves relevant sections from your materials and generates answers grounded in your actual curriculum — not generic internet knowledge.
AI Teaching Assistant: Bundle Generation
Describe a lesson idea and instantly generate a full set of teaching materials — lesson plan, assignment, quiz, worksheet, discussion prompts, exit ticket, rubric. Each output is structured according to established educational frameworks. Every piece of content is a starting point, not a final product. Teacher review is always the final step.
Personalized Student Feedback
When a student ends their conversation, our system automatically analyzes the entire dialogue to generate personalized feedback — identifying areas of strong understanding and concepts that need reinforcement. You can review exactly what feedback was shared when viewing the transcript in your dashboard. Nothing is sent to students without your knowledge.
Class-Wide Teaching Insights
Our AI analyzes patterns across all student interactions to identify common strengths, misconceptions, and areas where students struggle. All class-wide insights are aggregated and anonymized — individual student data is never exposed in these analytics. You see trends and patterns that help you make informed instructional decisions.
AI-Assisted Grading
Rubric-based. Transparent. Always teacher-reviewable.
When you enable AI grading, the system uses YOUR custom rubrics to evaluate student work — ensuring consistency and reducing grading bias. You can review, adjust, or override any AI-generated grade. Secondary AI can also auto-generate rubrics based on your chatbot's subject, grade level, and learning standards, giving you a strong starting point you can refine to match your exact assessment goals.
AI grading helps minimize "grading drift" — inconsistency across many assignments — while keeping teacher judgment central to every final decision.
