Built by Bangladeshis,
for Bangladeshi classrooms.
We're a small team of educators and engineers in Dhaka building the AI grading platform we wished existed when we were teaching.
Give every Bangladeshi teacher their weekends back — without compromising on grade quality.
Teachers across Bangladesh spend 30–50% of their working hours grading. That's time stolen from teaching, mentoring, and rest. We believe AI can change that — but only if it's built with deep respect for the work teachers do, the language they grade in, and the students they serve.
Four principles guide everything.
Teachers come first
Every product decision starts with one question: does this make a teacher's day easier? If the answer isn't a clear yes, we don't ship it.
Bangladesh-first design
We don't adapt foreign tools for Bangladeshi schools. We build from scratch for Bengali handwriting, Bengali rubrics, and Bengali pedagogy.
Trust over speed
Student data never leaves Bangladesh. Models are auditable. Every AI mark is reviewable. Trust takes years to build, seconds to lose.
Augment, don't replace
AI doesn't replace teachers — it returns their time. The judgment, care, and context teachers bring is irreplaceable. We free them to do more of it.
From classroom frustration to nationwide pilot.
Idea born in a classroom
Founder watched his mother spend 14 hours grading a single mid-term over the weekend. That weekend, the first prototype was sketched.
First Bengali OCR model
Trained on 12,000 hand-labelled scripts from 4 schools. First version hit 84% accuracy on real handwriting.
Pilot with first school
First school partner onboarded. Validated the OCR and semantic grading pipeline on real exam scripts across multiple subjects.
Semantic grading launched
Moved beyond OCR — fine-tuned LLM started understanding Bengali answers semantically. Auto-approval rate hit 88%.
Today: early access open
Pipeline validated on real classroom data. Opening enrollment to schools across Bangladesh — free trial, no card needed.
Educators and engineers, hand in hand.
