Nectir lets teachers tailor AI chatbots to provide their students with 24/7 educational support | TechCrunch
Briefly

With the ongoing teacher shortage, it's becoming harder for educators to provide individualized, one-on-one feedback to every student. Kavitta Ghai, the mind behind Nectir, witnessed this issue while studying at the University of California, Santa Barbara (UCSB).
I am autistic, and I have ADHD, so no classroom that I've ever been in before has felt comfortable or safe for me or my brain to be in,” she told us. This personal experience shaped Ghai's vision for creating an AI tool that would offer continuous educational support.
Everyone that I was talking to could not see the value of a college education anymore, and we're seeing that across the nation right now. The education that we're providing is not valuable. It's not modern. It's not setting them up for career success.
With Nectir, teachers can create an AI assistant tailored to their specific needs, whether for a single class, a department, or the entire campus. There are various personalization options available, enabling teachers to establish clear boundaries for the AI's interactions.
