Shows its work. Asks for yours.

What happens when a student asks.

The flow

What happens when a student asks.

  1. Student asks.

    In a browser, signed in with their school account.

  2. Safety check.

    Every message is checked for signs a student needs help.

  3. Approved content found.

    The system searches your school’s approved sources.

  4. Tutor responds.

    At the right level, with sources.

  5. Reinforcement.

    A short task to make it stick.

During the beta, an AI model service runs the safety check and writes the answer from the sources Trailpost found. On your school’s own instance, no outside AI service is involved.

Learning modes

Six ways to learn the same thing.

The same approved content, presented the way a student chooses. This is about access, not labels: we never decide what “type” of learner a student is.

Quiz

Students make their own quizzes from approved content. Answers explain why.

Diagram

Labelled diagrams and cycles built from approved sources, with a text description for screen readers.

Flashcards

Study cards and guides from approved content, ready for spaced practice.

Slideshow

Simple slide briefings a teacher can project and rewrite into their own template.

Article

A cited overview assembled from approved sources.

Guide

A step-by-step walkthrough, chunked, with optional narration.

More ways in, for more students.

Offering the same content in more than one form helps students with print disabilities, dyslexia, or ADHD, and English-language learners. This is Universal Design for Learning, not “learning styles.”

Every diagram is traced to approved sources and checked before it’s shown.

Approved content

Only content your school can trust.

What’s in

  • Licence-cleared reference material
  • Open textbooks and government data
  • Open-licensed images
  • Your school’s own approved material

What’s out

  • Social media
  • News articles
  • Forums and comments
  • Unlicensed or paywalled content
  • Anything above PG-13
  • Every answer shows where it came from.
  • Schools choose which content is turned on.
  • Schools can add their own approved material.
  • Every source is reviewed for licence terms before inclusion.

Help shape it.

We’re working with a small group of schools to build and test Trailpost. Pilot schools help decide what success looks like.
