Problem
Traditional classroom discussions often only capture the voices of a few outspoken students, leaving teachers without a clear picture of overall comprehension. Quiet students, those who haven't done the reading, or those with insights they are hesitant to share are frequently overlooked, leading to unaddressed misconceptions and missed learning opportunities.
Solution
SamWise is a voice-first learning platform that converts course materials into interactive conversation quizzes. Students verbally work through the material one-on-one with the AI, which listens and adapts to their responses. The platform then generates individual transcripts, skill-by-skill rubrics, and class-wide analytics, giving teachers a comprehensive view of each student's understanding and highlighting concepts that need to be retaught. For individual learners, SamWise acts as a personal communication coach, helping to sharpen the cognitive skills that are often eroded by reliance on technology. Teachers can set up a conversation quiz from one of their readings in about five minutes and run it with their class in the same week.
