AI and Édifice, always there for the teachers
At a time when AI is overwhelming and disrupting our daily lives, we believe that artificial intelligence in education and in the VLE must respond to very specific requirements.
Our vision
Designed with and for the teachers
Each feature has been developed in close collaboration with the teachers to meet the practical challenges of the classroom, whether it’s simplifying lesson preparation, enriching activities or encouraging peer-to-peer sharing.
Complying with the rules of a trust framework
AI must respect the same values that we defend for digital education: reliability, neutrality and caring. No obscure decisions, no hidden results, everything is designed to maintain your confidence in these new tools.
Helping teachers without replacing them (ever)
Édifice believes that artificial intelligence is there to simplify teachers’ daily lives, help them enrich their teaching methods and give them more time for what really matters – teaching and passing on their knowledge to their pupils.
Our pledge for a safe and worry-free use of AI
- Your data is sacred: we guarantee compliance with the GPRD and ensure that your information is secure.
- Awareness of the ecological impact: some AI tools consume a lot of energy and have a out of proportion carbon impact. We work to design only features that have a limited impact.
- Total transparency: teachers are involved at every stage, from the design to the testing phase.
- Respect for Educational Values: our vision of AI is based on the main principles of the education system.
- Ethical and inclusive AI: our generative AI is designed to be as reliable, neutral and accessible as possible, for the benefit of all users.
Using generative AI
to create interactive exercises
Imagine being able to transform a handwritten document into an interactive exercise in just a few clicks, ready for proofreading and distribution to your pupils. Currently being tested by a group of volunteer teachers, this innovation will benefit from their feedback to be improved and perfectly adapted to teachers’ needs before its launch.
Take a picture of a document containing the questions for the exercise, whether it is on printed paper, in a handwritten document or in a file. You can also upload a PDF.
A committed and collaborative approach to innovation
🤝 Working with experts
We work hand in hand with research laboratories that are experts in their field, such as the Techné laboratory at the University of Poitiers, to ensure that our tools meet the expectations and needs of the educational world.
🚀 Ambitious projects
Since Édifice was founded in 2011, we have been conducting research programs to encourage teachers to adopt digital technology, respecting their pace and supporting them at every stage of their training.
🛠️ Controlled technology
With innovations like Retrieval-Augmented Generation (you don’t need to remember the name, we’ll do it for you!), we use AI in a transparent and secure way. Our aim is always to make life easier for teachers by meeting their needs.
