The LMS that thinks
alongside you.
Ember is an AI-native LMS for schools and universities. Reviewable agents draft feedback, plan lessons, and surface learning evidence — while educators retain the final decision.
Proof before promises.
Repeatable product evidence while measured pilot outcomes are still ahead.
5 agents that
do the work.
Autonomous agents with full course context that grade, plan, intervene, communicate, and accommodate — then ask for your approval.
Every agent works autonomously — but always with your final approval.
Explore all agentsEmber reads the submission.
Every essay, lab report, and problem set is parsed in context — not just keywords. The agent pulls the rubric, IEP, and prior work to understand what "good" looks like for this student.

Why teachers
switch to Ember.
The first AI-native, agentic LMS. Not a bolt-on AI tool. Not a 2008 LMS with a chatbot.

Why we built Ember.
A personal note from the person who started it.
I started Ember because I watched my mother — a 25-year high school biology teacher — spend her Sundays grading instead of being with our family. She loved teaching. She hated the paperwork.
Every LMS I tried made things worse. Legacy tools were slow, broken, or powerless. None of them used AI to actually help — they just added more clicks.
Ember is different. Our AI agents don't just suggest — they do the work. They grade. They plan. They intervene. They accommodate. Teachers approve, but the busywork is gone. That's not a feature. It's a foundation.
Ember's evidence, inspectable.
Product facts today. Customer outcomes only after a measured pilot.
Built for the IT team, too.
Privacy, security, and reliability — not afterthoughts.
Privacy
Role and relationship boundaries limit access to student records. District policy and contract review remains deployment-specific.
Security
Application controls cover authentication, authorization, rate limits, security headers, and incident procedures. Independent audit is pending.
Reliability
Health checks, observability, backups, and recovery paths exist in code. Production uptime evidence begins with credentialed pilots.
