🍁 Indigenous Communities First

AI that learns
with respect.

TBAI turns every tutoring session into a personalized learning plan, with skill mastery, well-being signals, and measurable progress. Built with Indigenous students and communities at the centre, in their language, under their control.

Our Commitment

Two pillars. Non negotiable.

Everything we build for Indigenous communities rests on these two foundations, designed in from day one, not bolted on later.

🗣️

Indigenous Language Support

Your language is your identity. The AI-generated session summary and personalized learning plan can be delivered in Indigenous languages, not through a generic translation engine, but through a responsible AI and human review process that respects the nuance and cultural weight of your language.

AI generates the session diagnosis and plan in English first
A translation layer converts it to the community's language
A fluent human reviewer verifies accuracy and cultural appropriateness
The reviewed report is delivered to the family portal
Initial support: Cree, Ojibwe, Inuktitut, with more coming
🔐

Community Data Sovereignty

Your community's data belongs to your community, not to us. TBAI is built in full alignment with OCAP® principles: Ownership, Control, Access, and Possession. This is not a policy statement. It is how the platform is engineered.

Communities can access all their data at any time
Set your own data retention period, not just our default
Export your full community dataset on demand
Permanently delete all data with one request
No data ever shared or sold to third parties
Data Sovereignty

Built on OCAP® principles.

The First Nations principles of OCAP® are the recognized standard for Indigenous data governance in Canada. TBAI is built to honour all four.

O
Ownership
Your community collectively owns the data generated by your members. We are custodians, not owners.
C
Control
Communities decide how data is collected, used, and shared. You set the rules. We follow them.
A
Access
Community members can access data about themselves and their community at any time, with no barriers.
P
Possession
Physical and digital control of data stays within your community's hands, not on servers you cannot reach.
More Commitments

Built differently.
On purpose.

Beyond our two pillars, TBAI makes specific design choices that reflect respect for Indigenous values and lived experience.

👨‍👩‍👧‍👦

Extended Family Access

Reports can be shared with the full circle of caregivers: grandparents, aunts, uncles, not just a single parent. Because family is community.

💛

Trauma Informed Well-being Lens

The AI's confidence, stress, and engagement signals are written with care. No clinical labels, no stigmatizing language. Always framed with warmth and respect.

📡

Connectivity Aware

We flag when a student may be dealing with connectivity issues (common in remote and northern communities) so tutors have the context they need.

🧭

Culturally Appropriate Tone

Every AI-drafted summary, plan, and family recap avoids Western-centric academic language. Reports are written to resonate with Indigenous values and communication styles.

🕒

Flexible Scheduling

Built to accommodate the time zones and scheduling realities of remote and northern communities across Canada.

🚫

Zero Data Selling. Ever.

We will never sell, share, or monetize community data. This is a permanent, unconditional commitment, not a policy subject to change.

"When a child is educated in their own language, they learn who they are. When technology respects that, it becomes a tool for healing, not harm."

Your community.
