Edexia (YC W25)

Edexia (YC W25) is an AI teaching assistant that grades papers. It learns the style of each individual teacher, so it can grade just like they do, saving up to 100% of grading time. Edexia can grade assignments from any curriculum, year level, subject, or format. Learning like a teacher, it visually breaks down its understanding of the rubric, and updates this as a teacher corrects its grading — always keeping them in control. Congrats on the launch, Daniel Gibbon and Nathan Wang! 🚀 https://lnkd.in/gCEmZtyn

Daniel Gibbon and I are going to 🟧 Y Combinator! We're ecstatic to be bringing Edexia (YC W25), the AI assessment co-pilot for teachers, to the US. We set out on a mission to positively impact the education system. 🎓 After a year of exploratory research and over 200 conversations with teachers, we realized that assessments were the best place to start. Grading and feedback can be one of the most time-consuming, problematic, yet important parts of an educator's profession. So we began to learn and iterate. 🛠️ We launched in August and have since worked with 12 schools in Queensland. We can't wait to collaborate with more schools and will continue to do everything we can to save them time ⏳. I'd love to thank Yotam Rosenbaum, Brent Watts, Sneha Sivakumar, and all the amazing schools and teachers we're working with for helping us out along the way. Looking forward to the beginning of a new era in education! If you want to join us for the journey as well, we are hiring 🚀

We are excited to introduce Edexia, an AI-powered marking and drafting assistant that can save you up to 80% of your time. Our initial focus is on the Year 11-12 QCAA syllabus, with plans to expand to every year, subject, and syllabus across the world. Our core goal is to positively impact the education system by reducing time, bias, and inaccuracies in the drafting and marking process. We aim to enhance feedback for both students and teachers, making it more in-depth, immediate, and useful. Edexia is designed to assist the process, not fully automate it, giving teachers the tools and time they need to develop the next generation.

Will AI Marking and Feedback Be Uplifting or Undermining to Teaching? AI can save teachers time, improve the quality of feedback, and close the research-practice gap. However, it can also lead to the erosion of teacher-student relationships, the risk of bias and inaccuracies, and ethical concerns regarding data privacy. Ultimately, the key to unlocking the benefits of AI while mitigating the risks lies in finding the right balance and implementing AI-guided assessment rather than fully automated solutions, using AI as a tool rather than a replacement.
