Methodology
From syllabus to certificate, in the open
Six steps, each one documented. You stay in control of every change; the published Standard controls the decision.
Upload and intake
You upload your syllabus as PDF or Word. We parse it to structured text and show you the parsed version so you can confirm nothing was misread before anything is judged. Your document is never edited by anyone but you.
Analysis against the Standard
The syllabus is analyzed against every criterion of the published IIAIT Standard — the same document anyone can read at /standard. Each finding cites the clause it rests on (“B.5.1”, “A.3.2”), so every judgment is checkable against the published text.
Suggestions, as diffs
You receive concrete suggested changes shown as before/after diffs, each with a rationale and its clause citation. You accept, reject, or question every one individually. Rejecting a suggestion is a legitimate outcome, not a failure state — the record shows you considered it.
Grading-scheme revision
Assessment is where AI-readiness is won or lost, so your grading scheme gets its own interactive pass: weight architecture, AI-permitted versus AI-restricted tasks, and process-evidence requirements, revised with you in control.
The conformance decision
Your score and level are computed mechanically from the published model: Certified requires 70 overall with all three gate criteria met; Distinction requires 85, stronger gates, and no weak domain. No human — including us — can override a gate failure in either direction.
Certificate and listing
You receive the updated syllabus you own, and a certificate — web page, PDF, and QR — permanently bound to the Standard version it was measured against. Your course joins the public directory, where anyone can verify it.
What the AI does — and never does
It does
- Analyzes your syllabus against the published criteria, citing clauses
- Drafts suggested rewrites for you to accept or reject
- Scores each criterion on the published 0–4 anchor scale
It never
- Changes a word of your syllabus without your explicit acceptance
- Overrides the published thresholds — the decision is mechanical
- Trains on your documents or shares them with third parties
Not every course passes
A certification that cannot be failed certifies nothing. Three failures are disqualifying no matter how strong the rest of the syllabus is: no AI policy at all (A.1), enforcement that leans on unreliable detection software without due process (B.5), and coursework that forces students to feed personal or protected data into external AI systems (E.2).
If your course doesn't pass, you keep the full analysis: every finding, every citation, every suggestion. Most gaps are fixable in an afternoon — you revise, re-run the analysis, and certify when the course clears the published bar. We certify readiness; we don't sell the word.
Ready when you are
Most professors finish in two working sessions.
