Building
The AI operating system for schools.
One connected system behind the school day. AI agents handle the work around teaching: marking, lesson prep, parent reports. Teachers get to enjoy teaching again. Kids get to love learning again.
The platform: three AI agents, one session
Where It Started
OxbridgeAITutor
Live · Brighton College
I could not find prep that actually challenged me at the right level. So I built it myself. Deployed it at school. Then 4 out of 4 beta students got Oxford offers.
What it is
AI tutors for TMUA, ESAT, and Oxbridge interviews, adapting to each student's mastery level
Analytics for teachers, real-time progress feed for parents
Beta results: Andrei got TMUA 8.0, Tim got 8.4, both in the top 3 to 5% globally. All 4 beta students got Oxford offers.
Earlier Builds
ALL3
Robotics startup. I built the robotic arm for a robot that works on construction sites, so people don't have to be there for the dangerous work.

School Food Feedback
Every lunch was complaints, so I built a site to rate meals and push improvements directly to the school.
