About Nested Learning
Active learning, everywhere.
Most AI in education hands learners answers. Nested Learning builds AI that makes them think.
Grounded in cognitive science
An AI tutor that asks rather than tells
Our AI tutor is grounded in cognitive science: the testing effect, desirable difficulty, the zone of proximal development and cognitive load theory.
It asks, prompts and probes rather than simply telling, so learners do the work that makes learning stick.
Who it is for
Built for providers, inside the systems they already use
It's built for higher education institutions and independent training providers, and it fits the systems they already use.
It runs inside WordPress and TalentLMS, and as a SCORM package it is built to work in other SCORM-compliant platforms, such as Moodle, so there's no new platform to adopt and no rip-and-replace.
Insight, not surveillance
Teachers get insight, not surveillance
Staff see learning-analytics insights, not transcripts.
The insights show which concepts are secure, which are shaky and where a cohort needs attention. Dashboards show this at concept level, so staff can act early. How the analytics work
Accessibility is designed in for every learner, rather than bolted on, and we are building towards full WCAG 2.2 AA. Accessibility statement
