Flagship product
Winny AI Tutor
An international learning ecosystem: a personal AI tutor for learners and accounts for parents, teachers and schools.
Core features are free forever
Nominee for the 2026 UNESCO Prize for the Use of ICTs in Education
Winny AI Tutor: learners and schools across more than 80 countries worldwide
Five selected themes from the three dimensions of the 2022–2028 plan: professional development, educational services, and social and behaviour change communication. These are areas for discussing a Winny AI contribution, rather than five official goals or an existing implementation.
The teacher assistant helps with routine questions and homework review. Teachers retain assessment decisions; teacher access is free.
“initial and continuing training”
The tutor offers explanations and guiding questions at the learner’s pace. Suitability for specific needs requires assessment; it does not replace specialist services.
Parent accounts show learning progress and difficulties, supporting dialogue with the teacher.
Learner, parent, teacher and school accounts share a view of learning, with permissions and responsibilities to be agreed.
“partnerships and collaboration”
Learners can revisit mistakes step by step and practise topics where they need support. This is educational support, without disability diagnosis.

Guinea-Bissau · inclusive education · 2022–2028 National Strategic Plan for Inclusive Education
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.
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
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
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
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.
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.
| What we compare | General-purpose assistant | AI built for school |
|---|---|---|
| Answers | gives a finished solution by default | guides to the solution step by step |
| Curriculum | generic content | national curriculum and assessments |
| Audience | one tool for everyone | age-appropriate and safe for children |
| Memory | a shared chat history | a map of each learner’s knowledge across the curriculum |
| Teachers and parents | not involved | see progress and guide learning |
By 2030 the world will need 44 million more teachers. AI should support teachers, not replace them. UNESCO, Global Report on Teachers, 2024
Flagship product of Winny AI
A personal AI tutor in a chat format for students from primary to secondary school — across all school subjects, foreign languages and popular hobbies — with connected accounts for parents, teachers and schools. Learners, parents, teachers and schools see one shared picture of learning.
For the learner
No finished solutions: guiding questions and step-by-step hints.
Adaptation to the Guinea-Bissau curriculum and textbooks must be agreed and validated with local specialists.
Answers difficult questions thoughtfully, in a way that suits the learner’s age, and handles sensitive topics with care.
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

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.
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.
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.
Checks every answer for child safety and for correct references to learning materials.
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.
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.
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.
Curriculum, languages and deployment to be defined with local stakeholders.
Adaptation to the Guinea-Bissau curriculum and textbooks is a step to agree and validate with local specialists; it is not presented as complete.
The tutor explains in Portuguese and works in more than 90 languages. Other teaching languages, including Kriol, require verification and local validation; this does not promise a translated product interface.
Models to be selected and fine-tuned for the languages and requirements agreed locally.
The service and data can stay in the country, in a closed environment.
A “glass box”, not a “black box”: regulators can check how answers are built and what they contain.
Platform for experts
We are building a platform where recognised experts add to and fine-tune educational AI: each contributes what they know best.

Before deployment, the legal basis, responsibilities, parent or guardian involvement, access permissions, retention and data transfers must be established. Local deployment is an option to assess. No advertising and no sale of data. The current legal framework and competent authority still require confirmation; we do not claim that no law exists or claim completed compliance.
The product’s global experience provides a basis for discussing local setup. Scale, requirements and pace must be agreed; no existing pilot in the country is claimed.

The competency digital twin shows a learner’s strengths, gaps and inclinations in each subject.
Recommendations on fields of study based on the learner’s strengths and interests — to support their own decision about the future.

We work with experts in neuroprofiling to prepare diagnostics of talents and inclinations, including with neural interfaces — voluntary and with parental consent.
For the Ministry of Education: early discovery of talents and a forecast of how graduates are likely to choose fields — data for planning places and programmes in vocational and higher education.

Adaptation to the Guinea-Bissau curriculum and textbooks is a step to agree and validate with local specialists; it is not presented as complete.
Exam preparation has been part of the product since 2024. Local assessment formats and content require validation with specialists; the tutor supports preparation, rather than use during the exam.
Yes, it explains and answers in Portuguese. The ability to work in more than 90 languages does not verify every local teaching language. Coverage of Kriol and other languages still needs verification; the product interface language has not been confirmed.

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.
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.

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.
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.
Winny Cloud provides options to explore learning support in authorised platforms. SIGE2.0 — Sistema de Informação e Gestão de Educação da Guiné-Bissau — is an administrative education information and management system in the PESIDE planning and statistics context, rather than an assignment platform. Any connection requires operator permission and assessment of interfaces and data; no existing integration is claimed. Guided AI learning needs an authorised learning workflow.

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