Inspiration
We were inspired by the lack of a unified platform where students can learn, collaborate, and secure jobs while being part of a supportive community. We also wanted to address the needs of students with disabilities, making learning accessible to all.
What it does
Educate AI helps students build communities beyond college, participate in hackathons, and prepare for jobs through AI-powered personalized learning. It supports students with disabilities, offers VR tools for immersive learning, and enables all students to pursue their passions with real-world projects, all in one platform.
How we built it
We built Educate AI using advanced AI algorithms, integrated AR/VR tools for immersive learning, and backend support for community building and hackathon participation. The platform is optimized for accessibility and inclusivity.
Challenges we ran into
We faced challenges in creating a seamless user experience, integrating AI tools to accommodate students with disabilities, and ensuring the platform can scale while maintaining accessibility and performance.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
We are proud to have developed a platform that supports personalized learning for all students, including those with disabilities. We’ve also built a thriving pre-launch community of 500 users with a strong retention rate.
What we learned
We learned the importance of creating an inclusive platform that fosters collaboration while making cutting-edge technologies, like AI and AR/VR, more accessible for students from diverse backgrounds.
What's next for ORCA
We plan to scale the platform, expand our partnerships with educational institutions and employers, introduce new learning modules, and increase user engagement through gamified learning and more hackathons.
