AI-powered insights that
understands every classroom
Two AI agents — ARIA generates the questions shy students won't ask, ATLAS observes what teachers physically can't. Audio-powered teaching quality insights.

The AI Agents
Two Agents, One Smarter Classroom
ARIA
Artificial Reasoning & Inquiry Agent
ARIA listens to every lecture via classroom microphones, identifies knowledge gaps the moment they occur, and generates the questions students are too shy to ask — ranked by Bloom's Taxonomy for pedagogical depth.
Powered by: Classroom mic array → real-time speech-to-text → LLM analysis
ATLAS
AI Teaching & Learning Analytics System
ATLAS analyzes teacher audio patterns to understand lesson pacing, talk time balance, and classroom engagement levels. It provides real-time coaching nudges so teachers can adapt their delivery on the fly.
Powered by: Audio transcription → NLP analysis → teaching quality ML models
What You'll Need
The hushClass Kit
Real classroom intelligence requires real sensors. hushClass combines affordable hardware with powerful AI to give teachers genuine visibility into their classrooms.
Classroom Camera
A classroom camera focused on teacher movement and teaching patterns. Analyzes aggregate classroom activity for teacher coaching insights.
- Wide-angle lens (120°+ FOV)
- 720p minimum resolution
- Aggregate classroom activity sensing
- Teacher movement tracking (optional)
- Privacy: processed on-device, no raw video stored
Microphone Array
A directional mic array that captures classroom audio for real-time transcription and teacher-vs-class voice separation.
- Ceiling or desk-mountable
- Noise cancellation for classroom acoustics
- Speaker separation (teacher vs class)
- Real-time audio streaming
- Works with standard classroom layouts
hushClass Hub (Optional)
An edge compute device that processes camera and audio feeds locally — keeping raw data private and reducing cloud dependency.
- Connects to camera + mic
- On-device audio processing
- Only metadata sent to cloud
- Works with limited internet
- Plug-and-play setup
Software-only mode: Schools with existing audio infrastructure can integrate directly. Teachers can also start with audio-only mode using a laptop microphone — camera features are additive, not required.
Getting Started
How hushClass Knows Who Is Who
HushClass works with just a microphone. No student enrollment needed. For schools wanting deeper insights, we offer optional features — schools choose what fits their comfort level.
Audio Upload
Upload a recorded lesson or connect to a live meeting. HushClass transcribes and scores your teaching quality automatically. No setup required.
Seating Map
Track your teaching improvement over weeks. See which areas are growing and where to focus next — works with audio-only mode for privacy-first coaching.
Team Insights
Share anonymized insights with your teaching team. Compare aggregate patterns and learn from each other — no individual scores shared.
Privacy by Design
All data is teacher-owned and private by default. Teaching scores are never shared with administrators without explicit teacher consent. Raw audio is deleted within 24 hours. Only aggregated insights — not photos — and are encrypted at rest. Schools retain full control over data retention and can delete all student data at any time. All processing follows privacy-first principles.
How It Works
From Setup to First Insights
Record your lesson, upload, and get insights. Teachers focus on teaching — hushClass handles the observation.
Install hushClass Kit
Mount the camera and mic in your classroom. Connect to the hushClass Hub or directly to your school's network.
Teach Your Class
Just teach normally. Record via phone, laptop mic, or meeting bot. No special setup needed.
Start a Session
Teacher clicks 'Start Session'. ARIA begins listening, ATLAS starts observing. Both agents work silently in the background.
Review Insights
After class, review the AI-generated debrief: engagement data, generated questions, comprehension gaps, and coaching suggestions.
Capabilities
What hushClass Actually Measures
With camera + microphone data, here's what becomes possible — no guesswork, just real classroom intelligence.
Via Camera (ATLAS)
Individual Participation Analysis
Classroom-wide attention patterns — overall focus levels across the room.
Classroom Energy Levels
Aggregate room activity: periods of active discussion vs quiet focus vs low energy — adapt your pacing.
Participation Balance
Measures how many different voices contribute to class discussion and whether participation is evenly distributed.
Participation Patterns
How evenly participation is distributed across the class — without identifying who spoke.
Teacher Movement Heatmap
How the teacher moves around the room — which areas get more attention.
Via Microphone (ARIA)
Real-time Transcription
Live speech-to-text of the entire lecture with timestamp alignment.
AI Question Generation
ARIA identifies concepts students likely struggle with and generates clarifying questions ranked by Bloom's Taxonomy.
Voice Separation
Distinguishes teacher voice from aggregate student voices. Measures talk time balance without identifying individuals.
Engagement Proxy via Audio
Classroom noise patterns, silence duration, and energy levels as indicators of engagement.
Concept Coverage Analysis
Maps lecture content against curriculum to identify what was taught vs what was missed.
For Every Stakeholder
From Individual Classrooms to Entire Districts
hushClass is designed for the realities of education — large class sizes, diverse learners, limited observation bandwidth. One system that serves every stakeholder differently.
For Teachers
Real-time coaching nudges during class. Post-session debrief cards with AI-generated questions, engagement data, and teaching suggestions.
For Principals
School-wide engagement analytics, teacher development insights, and automated weekly reports — without sitting in every classroom.
For Students
AI-generated questions that voice doubts they're afraid to ask. Better-paced lessons. More interactive classrooms.
For School Leaders
Aggregate teaching quality trends across the school — identify professional development needs — weeks before grades drop.

Building in Public
Questions We're Still Solving
Honest transparency about what we're figuring out. If you have insights on any of these, we'd love to hear from you.
How do we price this fairly?
Hardware + SaaS subscription? Per-classroom? Per-school? We need pilot data to determine real costs and value before setting prices.
What audio hardware is optimal?
Dedicated classroom microphones vs existing audio systems? Single omnidirectional vs multiple? Ceiling-mount vs desk? We're testing different setups in pilot classrooms.
How many languages can we support well?
Speech-to-text accuracy varies dramatically by language. We're starting with languages where STT models are strong and expanding as we validate quality.
Edge vs cloud processing?
Processing video on-device is better for privacy but limits AI capability. Cloud is more powerful but raises data concerns. We're building a hybrid approach.
Privacy and data protection?
We only analyze teacher audio and lesson quality patterns. No student data collection or individual tracking. EU AI Act and India DPDP compliant by design. Raw audio deleted in 24 hours.
How do we measure accuracy?
Is our engagement score actually accurate? How do we validate that ARIA's questions match real student confusion? We need classroom pilots to calibrate.
