Winny AI builds educational AI ready to help every student in the Democratic Republic of the Congo

“Strengthening inclusion”
MINEDU-NC, 30 April 2026, orientation 4; adapted meaning in English, not a verbatim quotation

AI that guides learners towards understanding and can explain and respond in French, English, Kikongo, Lingala, Swahili and Tshiluba. For a project in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, curriculum, content and assessments would be agreed with education partners; hosting and data processing would be assessed. These language capabilities do not promise a translated product interface.

Winny AI Tutor: learners and schools in 80+ countries

Five selected themes from six education orientations announced for 2026–⁠2030

Five selected themes from the six orientations announced on 30 April 2026 inform this proposal. Inclusion also guides our approach. These are priorities, not achieved outcomes; the new sector strategy was still being prepared in May 2026.

Primary and secondary learning MINEDU-NC, communiqué of 30 April 2026

An AI tutor to support learning

Education research has long known the most effective way to learn: one-to-one work with a tutor. Until now, only a few could have it — AI opens it up to every learner.

98%

On average, a student with a personal tutor outperforms 98% of peers in a regular classroom.

Bloom B. S., The 2 Sigma Problem, Educational Researcher, 1984

1.5 years

Six weeks of sessions with an AI tutor raised results by about 0.3 standard deviations — roughly a year and a half of typical learning.

De Simone et al., World Bank, randomized study, Nigeria, 2025

×2

Students with an AI tutor learned more than twice as much in less time than in active-learning classes.

Kestin et al., Harvard University, Scientific Reports, 2025

+1 pp

A gain of 0.5 standard deviations in learning outcomes is associated with about 1 percentage point faster long-run growth of GDP per capita each year.

Hanushek & Woessmann, OECD, 2010

These are independent studies of tutoring (by people and by AI) and of the economics of education. We propose to measure the impact of Winny AI Tutor together with the country — in a pilot with independent evaluation.

A ready answer is not yet knowledge. Schools need AI that teaches

Students everywhere already use AI. But general-purpose assistants were not built for school: by default, they do the task for the student and follow the provider’s rules, not the country’s.

Flagship product of Winny AI

Winny AI Tutor — an international learning ecosystem

A personal AI tutor in a chat format for primary and secondary learners across school subjects, foreign languages and popular hobbies, with connected accounts for parents, teachers and schools.

For the learner

  • Leads to understanding

    No finished solutions: guiding questions and step-by-step hints.

  • The country’s curriculum and textbooks

    The knowledge graph connects subjects and learning materials. A setup for the Democratic Republic of the Congo would agree and validate curricula, content, textbooks and assessment requirements with education partners.

  • Beyond lessons

    Answers difficult questions thoughtfully, in a way that suits the learner’s age, and handles sensitive topics with care.

  • Encouragement

    Gently supports learners and helps ease stress and anxiety — for example, before exams.

Phone, tablet and computer — in the browser, nothing to install. Voice, photo and text.

Four roles. One ecosystem

  • Learner

    A personal tutor around the clock, a learning path, goals and assignments.

    Try it

  • Parent

    Their own account and chat: the child’s progress, strengths, gaps and talents.

    Try it

  • Teacher

    An AI assistant, class analytics, assignments and groups. Free, with generous limits.

    Try it

  • School and government

    Administration, aggregated insights across schools and the whole system, and deployment within the country.

    Request a presentation

Core features are free forever. Free for teachers, with generous limits.

For every question — the best-suited model and real pedagogy, not just an answer

Winny AI’s own technology: a model orchestrator, a pedagogical agent, a safety layer and long-term memory of each learner. The product does not depend on any single AI provider.

  • Model orchestrator

    For each request it chooses the best-suited model, including national ones, and tunes its behaviour to the subject, language and task. A model can be replaced without rewriting the product.

  • Pedagogical agent

    Plans every reply to lead the learner to understanding: guiding questions and step-by-step hints instead of a finished answer. It holds firm when a learner tries to coax out the answer, and this mode cannot be switched off.

  • Safety layer

    Checks every answer for child safety and for correct references to learning materials.

  • Learner’s digital twin

    A competency profile and long-term memory: Winny AI Tutor remembers years of learning — what the learner already understands, where the gaps are, what their talents are and which goal they are working toward.

  • Ontological interdisciplinary graphs

    School subjects are connected in a single knowledge graph built from textbooks and approved curricula, so the tutor sees the links between topics across subjects.

  • Bloom’s taxonomy

    Every topic is broken down into levels of mastery following Bloom’s taxonomy: learners climb the ladder of thinking instead of collecting ready answers.

Every update goes through a pedagogical quality loop: a test bench with synthetic AI learners and quality scales. The orchestrator and the educational ecosystem are registered as intellectual property.

Global technology. National character

Winny AI Tutor adapts to the country — not the other way around.

  • Curriculum and assessments

    Curricula, textbooks, content and assessment requirements would be agreed and validated with local education partners for primary and secondary learning, including preparation for Examen d’État (Exetat). No completed national setup is claimed.

  • Language and culture

    Winny AI Tutor can explain and respond in French, English, Kikongo, Lingala, Swahili and Tshiluba among more than 90 languages. Local terminology would be reviewed with partners. These capabilities are separate from the language of the product interface.

  • Models

    National, regional and open-weight models can be considered and fine-tuned for agreed educational requirements.

  • Infrastructure

    Local deployment in a closed environment can be considered; hosting, processing, access and transfers would be assessed under the Code du numérique and project requirements.

  • Transparency

    A “glass box”, not a “black box”: regulators can check how answers are built and what they contain.

Platform for experts

The Wikipedia principle: the country’s leading experts shape the AI together with us

We are building a platform where recognised experts add to and fine-tune educational AI: each contributes what they know best.

  1. Who

    Experts and communities

    • Recognized experts
    • Universities and the academic community
    • Companies
    • Authors of original curricula

  2. What

    The country’s knowledge

    • Curricula and subjects
    • Fields of knowledge
    • Languages
    • Teaching guides and books

  3. Review

    Winny AI reviews

    • Moderation
    • Safety layer
    • Pedagogical quality loop

  4. For whom

    For learners

    • Learners in the country
    • Learners around the world — through cultural bridges

That is how Wikipedia became the largest body of knowledge humanity has.

That is how Winny becomes the deepest and most distinctive AI tutor — one that passes knowledge on to the next generations.

Become an expert partner

What the government gets

A working product offered for an agreed local setup. Curriculum, assessment, hosting, processing, access and international transfers would be reviewed with the relevant authorities and partners.

A national picture, talents and less routine for teachers

  • Aggregated insights across schools and the whole system: gaps by topic and subject.
  • An AI education advisor: ask questions of the data in plain language — for the whole system and for each school.
  • Talents and career guidance: early discovery of every learner’s abilities in each subject, and recommendations on fields that match their strengths and interests.
  • Enrolment planning: a forecast of likely choices of fields of study can support places and programmes in vocational and higher education.
  • AI takes on routine questions and helps teachers review homework; the grade stays with the teacher.
  • Local curriculum, content and teaching requirements would be agreed with education partners before a school project.
  • Preparation for Examen d’État (Exetat), with locally agreed and validated content and assessment formats.
  • Support for teachers: workshops, plus materials for schools and parents.

Child safety is built into the architecture

Age-appropriate design, transparency for regulators and international standards.

Built in

  • Age-appropriate adaptation and filtering of harmful content.
  • A safety layer checks answers for child safety.
  • AI makes recommendations; the teacher gives the grade.
  • No advertising and no sale of user data.
  • Voice is processed only for transcription, photos only to work through the learning task: the AI understands text, diagrams and drawings.

Standards

  • We check our systems against UNESCO and UN guidance on generative AI in education.
  • Our own AI governance charter.
  • Proposed Winny Cloud formats for Maclasse, a content platform, FOADE, a teacher-training LMS, and other platforms. Allo École is a separate telephone channel; naming it does not mean an API connection. Operator permission and technical and legal review are required.

Personal data

  • Code du numérique-ready
  • Project assessment
  • Child safeguards

Code du numérique-ready means ready for a project assessment under the Code du numérique, Ordonnance-loi n°23/010 du 13 mars 2023: lawful processing, controller and processor roles, applicable child and parental safeguards, security, hosting, access, international transfers and required declarations or authorisations where applicable. Hosting choices depend on that assessment. Readiness is not legal approval or automatic compliance. No advertising and no sale of data.

A proposed path for the Democratic Republic of the Congo

Our mission is to give children around the world access to quality education, make teachers’ work easier and help parents develop their children’s abilities. Our vision is a future in which world-class personalised education is available to everyone, and artificial intelligence serves to unlock human potential and is used with full responsibility to future generations.

What is Winny AI Tutor?

A personal AI tutor in a chat format for school learners: all school subjects and exam preparation. Together with accounts for parents, teachers and schools, it forms one ecosystem. Learners and schools in 80+ countries use it.

Which subjects does Winny AI Tutor cover?

Winny AI Tutor supports school subjects, including mathematics, science and French, as well as foreign languages and hobbies. A local setup would agree and validate content, terminology and preparation requirements for Examen d’État (Exetat) with education partners. This does not claim that the entire national curriculum has already been integrated.

How is Winny AI Tutor different from general-purpose AI assistants?

General-purpose assistants can provide finished answers. Winny AI Tutor guides learners towards understanding through questions and step-by-step hints, adapts to their age and shows progress to teachers and parents. Curriculum, content and assessment requirements for a local setup would be agreed with education partners.

Why do people call Winny AI Tutor the best AI tutor?

That is how learners, parents, teachers and schools describe it in their reviews. Winny AI Tutor guides learners towards understanding and shows progress to teachers and parents. Curriculum, content, language and assessment requirements for a local setup would be agreed with education partners. Users rate 80%+ of answers 4–⁠5 out of 5, and some users stay with the product for 1.5+ years. Try Winny AI Tutor in the Democratic Republic of the Congo at cd.winnytutor.com.

Can Winny AI Tutor be adapted to the curriculum of the Democratic Republic of the Congo ?

The knowledge graph connects subjects and learning materials. For a local project, curricula, textbooks, content and assessment requirements would be agreed with education partners and validated before the intended use. This is not a completed national setup.

Can Winny AI Tutor support preparation for Examen d’État (Exetat)?

Exam preparation has been part of the product since 2024. Content and formats for Examen d’État (Exetat) would be agreed and validated with education partners. The tutor supports preparation, not use during the examination or accredited assessment.

Which languages can Winny AI Tutor use for explanations and responses?

French, English, Kikongo, Lingala, Swahili and Tshiluba among more than 90 languages. School content and terminology would be reviewed with partners. This concerns AI explanations and responses, not a promise of a translated interface or validation for every grade.

Where is learner data stored?

Deployment in a closed environment on local infrastructure or in a trusted cloud can be considered. In the Democratic Republic of the Congo, hosting, processing, access, security and international transfers require project assessment under the Code du numérique. Provider choice and applicable formalities would be determined in that assessment; local storage alone does not establish compliance.

Is Winny AI ready for assessment under the Code du numérique?

Code du numérique-ready means ready for a project assessment under the Code du numérique, Ordonnance-loi n°23/010 du 13 mars 2023. Lawful processing, controller and processor roles, applicable child and parental safeguards, security, hosting, access, transfers and required formalities would need review. Readiness is not legal approval or automatic compliance. No advertising and no sale of data.

Will AI replace teachers?

No. AI makes recommendations, and the teacher gives the grade. Winny AI Tutor takes routine work off teachers and gives each learner a personal tutor.

Is Winny AI Tutor safe for children?

Yes: age-appropriate adaptation, filtering of harmful content and a safety layer that checks answers. No advertising and no sale of data. Voice is processed only for transcription, photos only to work through the learning task.

How does Winny AI Tutor help with career guidance?

The competency digital twin shows a learner’s strengths, interests and talents in every subject, and Winny AI Tutor recommends fields of study. Together with experts and universities, we are developing an atlas of future professions, and with experts in neuroprofiling — diagnostics of talents, including with neural interfaces, voluntary and with parental consent.

Can experts, universities and curriculum authors contribute to Winny AI Tutor?

Yes — this is the Wikipedia principle: recognised experts, universities, the academic community, companies and authors of original curricula propose and add curricula, subjects, languages, teaching guides and books. Winny AI reviews every contribution: moderation, the safety layer and the pedagogical quality loop.

Can Winny AI technology be built into an existing platform?

Yes, there is a separate product for this — Winny Cloud. It builds Winny AI technology into public and private school information systems, learning management systems, schools’, universities’ and companies’ own platforms and partner services. Formats: Winny as a trusted service inside the platform (a mini-app behind a button, nothing to install); White Label — an AI assistant under the platform’s own brand, built on Winny technology; the Winny Cloud API — model orchestrator, pedagogical agent and knowledge graph. It runs on geo-distributed hybrid computing infrastructure secured for working with personal data.

Can Winny AI connect with Maclasse, FOADE or Allo École services?

Winny Cloud offers proposed formats for Maclasse, a primary and secondary learning-content initiative, and FOADE, a continuing teacher-education LMS. Allo École is a multilingual telephone support channel, not an LMS or a data API. A project depends on each service’s role, operator permission, actually available interfaces and educational, legal, security and data protection review. No authenticated access, automatic exchange or existing Winny connection is claimed. A mini-app, White Label or Winny Cloud API may be considered as appropriate.

Which AI tutor could support public education services in the Democratic Republic of the Congo?

Winny AI Tutor can be considered for a local curriculum and assessment setup to be agreed with partners. Winny Cloud offers formats for authorised workflows in Maclasse and FOADE according to their distinct roles; Allo École remains a telephone channel. Operator permission, available interfaces and educational, legal and security review are required. Hosting and transfers would be assessed under the Code du numérique. No existing national rollout or ministry approval is claimed.

How can AI help with homework without learners copying answers?

Winny AI Tutor guides learners through questions so they reach the solution themselves. Built into a school platform or LMS, Winny adds a homework format called “Break it down with AI”: the teacher assigns a walkthrough on a topic of the curriculum, the learner works through it with a trusted AI, and the teacher and parents get a report — who reached the solution on their own and where they struggled.

Is there a Winny browser extension?

Yes, the Winny extension for Chrome. Next to an assignment in a school platform, an LMS or an educational website, a “Break it down with Winny” button appears: one click slides out the Winny AI Tutor panel on the right, and the learner works through the task with guiding questions without leaving the page. The extension needs no separate integration with the platform.

How does Winny AI work with each country?

Each partner country gets a dedicated team. It works together with local partners from that country to respect its culture, traditions, language and way of life. Curricula, languages and models are set up for the country.

Has Winny AI received international recognition?

Winny AI is a nominee for the 2026 UNESCO King Hamad Bin Isa Al-Khalifa Prize for the Use of ICTs in Education.

What is Winny AI working on next?

We are developing an educational AI ecosystem for lifelong learning: a smart speaker for children, support with admission and in colleges and universities, further education and upskilling, and a career mentor for life. We are developing these with partners; the school tutor works today.

How much does Winny AI Tutor cost?

Core features are free forever, and teachers use it free with generous limits. Terms for schools and the country are discussed with a Winny AI representative.
