Problem
Students often paste case materials into general-purpose AI tools and submit the output, coming to class less prepared and less willing to speak up. Bans on AI don't work and detection is unreliable, yet the path of least resistance undermines the development of critical thinking and confidence.
Solution
CAiSEY is a homework tool that prepares students for class through real-time, voice-based discussions. Each student engages in a discussion question shaped by the course material and learning objectives, talking through their perspective while an AI partner challenges their reasoning. After each conversation, students receive a summary and specific coaching on argumentation, evidence use, and reasoning. The platform is designed to work alongside existing course structures without new tools or integrations, creating a judgment-free zone where students can explore ideas freely and build confidence to speak up in class.
Target Audience
Primary users are faculty and students in discussion-based courses at business schools and other higher education institutions, including Columbia Business School, Wharton, London Business School, and HEC Paris.
