At the DELTA Summit

Chris and Brian present Wednesday at 1:02pm in McKenna Hall, a shared breakout with Boston Trinity Academy. We're bringing the honest version: the mold delay, the classroom mix that shifted, and the early signal that teachers adopt the tool once they see it work, not because anyone talked them into it.

Soft launch, deliberately unrushed

TeacherAIde went live across five classrooms on Sept 15–16. We'd said from the start: "If we don't fully launch on the 15th, no worries." Everything runs on our on-premises NVIDIA Spark DGX server. Nothing a classroom says leaves the building.

A start delayed, and named

A July building-mold problem pushed the start of school back and cost us roughly six weeks. We're not smoothing it over: the compressed pilot window is part of the honest story we owe Notre Dame and our families.
