AI Learning Platform: Course Intelligence & Authoring

Rocketproof is an AI learning platform for higher education that unifies course intelligence, grounded student tutoring, and instructor authoring agents. By synchronizing with Canvas via verified LTI 1.3 Advantage developer keys and enforcing a tiered governance model, Rocketproof enables faculty to design, administer, and evaluate authentic coursework safely.

The foundation

The course intelligence layer grounded in Canvas.

Generic foundation models hallucinate course policies and leak unreleased information. Rocketproof’s course intelligence layer anchors every response in your actual course materials.

Sync 01

Multi-source Canvas ingestion

Synchronizes syllabi, module outlines, assignment rubrics, discussion boards, and uploaded document files (.pdf, .docx, .pptx) directly via Canvas developer keys.

Sync 02

Filter-before-rank RAG

A vital FERPA safeguard. Database queries strictly filter out unreleased assignments, draft modules, hidden faculty files, and other students' submissions before any semantic embedding search occurs.

Sync 03

Verifiable footnote citations

Every answer generated by the assistant includes explicit numbered footnote citations linking back to the exact course document page or Canvas module item.

Student tutoring

The Course Guide TA: Grounded and Socratic.

Provide every student with 24/7 academic support without facilitating academic dishonesty.

The Course Guide is a course-specific AI teaching assistant configured and published by the instructor of record. Unlike open-ended web chatbots, the Course Guide is instructionally bound by course ground truth and strict pedagogical guardrails.

  • Answers student questions strictly from approved course readings and lectures
  • Employs Socratic pedagogy on graded tasks to guide conceptual inquiry
  • Refuses to write completed essays, solve exam problems, or supply code solutions
  • Provides transparent citations so students can verify assertions independently

Students get immediate clarification on assignment parameters, reading arguments, and syllabus schedules without faculty email overload.

Grounded InteractionCourse Guide TA
Student: “Can you explain what Professor Davis means by ‘institutional isomorphism’ in Week 4?”
Course Guide: “According to the Week 4 reading (DiMaggio & Powell, 1983, p. 149) [1], institutional isomorphism describes the constraining process that forces one unit in a population to resemble other units facing the same environmental conditions. The author outlines three mechanisms: coercive, mimetic, and normative. Which mechanism applies to your upcoming paper topic?”
Authoring agents

Specialized authoring agents for faculty productivity.

Accelerate curriculum development with specialized AI agents designed to handle specific course authoring tasks.

Authoring agent

Assignment Creator

Transforms unstructured assignment concepts into complete structured drafts with rubrics, scenarios, personas, and questioning plans.

Authoring agent

Course Builder

Ingests syllabus briefs and reference documents (.pdf, .docx, .pptx) to plan cohesive modules, assignments, and learning objectives as unpublished drafts.

Authoring agent

Rubric Builder

Generates detailed, multi-tier evaluation criteria, descriptors, and scoring scales aligned with departmental accreditation standards.

Authoring agent

Question Bank Builder

Synthesizes adaptive, Bloom-aligned question pools tailored to specific readings, disciplines, and difficulty bands for instructor review.

Governance architecture

The unified instructor agent Rocket with tiered governance.

All instructor capabilities consolidate into a unified workspace assistant operating under strict safety boundaries.

Tier 0 & 1

Read & Draft

Tier 0 (Read-Only): Auto-executes read queries like overview metrics and analytics.
Tier 1 (Drafting): Generates UI drafts without mutating database state.

Tier 2 & 3

Reversible & Consequential

Tier 2 (Reversible): Requires clicking an Apply button to update form fields.
Tier 3 (Consequential): Explicit confirmation card required to publish assignments or sync grades.

Tier 4

Destructive Guardrails

Tier 4 (Destructive / Bulk): Requires typing an explicit confirmation phrase before executing bulk actions like shifting cohort due dates.

Frequently asked questions

AI learning platform questions answered.

What is an AI learning platform with course intelligence?

An AI learning platform with course intelligence is an educational software system that synchronizes directly with institutional learning management systems like Canvas to ground all AI tutoring, authoring, and assessment in verified course materials. Rather than generating generic responses from foundation model training data, the intelligence layer retrieves exact syllabus policies, lecture readings, and assignment parameters to assist students and instructors with verifiable citations.

How does the Course Guide ensure students do not cheat on graded work?

The Course Guide utilizes an authorized filter-before-rank RAG architecture and a pedagogical Socratic engine. Crucially, queries concerning graded assignments are instructionally constrained: the assistant guides students through conceptual questions and foundational principles rather than writing code, solving formulas, or generating completed submissions. Furthermore, private evaluations and unreleased assignments are strictly filtered out before retrieval.

What is tiered governance for AI agents?

Tiered governance is a safety framework that organizes AI agent actions by consequential risk. In Rocketproof, Tier 0 actions (read-only queries) execute automatically. Tier 1 actions (drafting) produce UI state without database mutations. Tier 2 actions (reversible edits) require clicking an Apply button. Tier 3 actions (consequential actions like publishing assignments or syncing grades to Canvas) require an explicit confirmation card. Tier 4 actions (destructive changes like cohort date shifting) require typing a confirmation string.
