See one learner move between three apps
We built an interactive demo that shows Seneca in about two minutes of clicking. It follows one student across three products from three different companies, on three devices: an assessment app on a school laptop, a tutoring app on their phone and a reading app on a tablet.
Four steps
- The assessment app learns something. At school, the student finishes a 15-question maths check-in: 8 of 10 on fraction procedures, 2 of 5 on word problems. Two questions became correct after a worked example, and the last three story problems took 6 to 9 seconds each.
- Seneca remembers. Each conclusion in the student's record shows where it came from, when, how many responses support it and whether it still needs checking. The weak word-problem score is marked "needs checking", because rushing could explain it as well as understanding.
- The tutoring app starts from it. That evening the student opens a tutoring app that has never seen them.
- The assessment app picks it up. A week later the student is back at school for a second check-in.
The permission step
Before the tutoring app reads anything, it has to ask. The request lists exactly what would be shared: the three conclusions, with source, date and evidence count for each. The student's reading journal is locked and isn't part of the request. Press Deny and the tutoring app gets nothing from Seneca and runs its general diagnostic.
Seneca off, Seneca on
Steps 3 and 4 each have a switch. With Seneca off, the tutoring app starts at question 1 of 20. The student repeats the fraction work they did that morning and doesn't reach word problems until question 14. With Seneca on, the tutoring app opens with one short word problem that checks the thing that needed checking. Seneca provides a starting point. The tutoring app decides what to teach.
Then the evidence goes the other way. The tutoring app's one-question result is added to the record, labelled as coming from the tutoring app. A week later, the assessment app can see both products' evidence and plans the second check-in around word problems. With Seneca off, it only knows its own check-in and repeats last week's plan. The reading app never asked for maths context, so it never gets any.
Two videos
If you'd rather watch, this 49-second pixel-art version tells the same story with narration.
A 47-second product walkthrough with captions and no narration is on the developers page.
Everything in the demo and both videos is fictional: the student, the three apps, the answers and the times.
