A founder project
BlueAI
Notes from practice and inquiry — on what teaching is really for, and what we still owe the people we teach.
What it is
The project sits naturally within my broader work in education, systems thinking, and AI. BlueAI is one way of translating classroom insight and educational philosophy into practical tools that can improve how learning is supported and understood.
The problem
Educational technology rarely earns the trust of the people it claims to serve.
01
Educator-informed
Built from classroom experience first, technology second. The teaching reality shapes the product, not the other way round.
02
Genuinely useful
Tools that earn their place in a teacher’s day. No novelty for its own sake; no impressive demos that fail in practice.
03
Practical AI
AI as an aid to thinking, feedback, and learning — designed with the same care we’d want a colleague to use.
Where we're focused
Three areas, one direction.
Assessment
Faster, fairer feedback that respects the work students actually produce.
Feedback
Tools that help teachers give the kind of feedback they would give if they had unlimited time.
Learning systems
Quiet infrastructure that supports schools, departments, and individual teachers.
Why I'm building it
The classroom is the brief.
I have spent years teaching, observing what helps students think, and writing about what schools can and cannot do for learning. BlueAI is what happens when those years meet the current capabilities of practical AI.
The goal is not a product that demos well. The goal is a product that a serious teacher would actually reach for on a Tuesday morning.
Stay Close
BlueAI is being built in public, at the right pace.
If you’re a school, an educator, an investor, or a fellow builder in this space, I’d value being in touch.
