AI Guidance That Teaches, Never Cheats
Institution-grade, course-aware Ethena AI guidance with instructor-set guardrails. Nudges students toward understanding without giving away answers.
Calculus Problem Help
Student asks about derivatives
Student: "What's the derivative of x²?"
Ethena AI: "Let's think about what a derivative represents. What happens to the slope of x² as x changes? Can you recall the power rule pattern?"
The Academic Integrity Crisis
Students need help, but current AI tools either give away answers (promoting cheating) or provide no academic context. Educators need visibility and control over AI assistance in their courses.
Students Struggle Alone
Office hours are limited. Students get stuck and either give up or resort to answer-giving AI tools that don't promote learning.
AI Tools Give Answers
ChatGPT and similar tools provide direct solutions, undermining the learning process and academic integrity policies.
Instructors Lack Control
No visibility into how students are getting help. No way to set boundaries on AI assistance for their specific course needs.
Ethena AI Guidance with Guardrails
Our AI uses the Ethena method to guide students through problems without giving answers. Instructors set policies, get analytics, and maintain academic integrity.

How Ethena AI Works
Our three-layer approach ensures academic integrity while providing meaningful learning support.
1. Ethena Questioning
AI asks guiding questions and provides hints that lead students to discover answers themselves, following the proven Ethena method.
2. Academic Guardrails
Built-in policies detect active assessments and limit hint depth. Instructors control what level of help is appropriate for each context.
3. Learning Analytics
Track learning progress, identify struggling concepts, and measure the effectiveness of AI-assisted learning in your course.
