ClarityGrid Learn is an AI-adaptive learning platform for students in Grades 1–12. It finds where each child actually is — then never stops challenging them.

ClarityGrid Learn is a browser-based learning platform for students from Grade 1 through Grade 12, currently free to use. A child creates a profile with just a nickname, grade, and 4-digit PIN — no email, no credit card, no sign-up friction. Then the learning begins.
Every session starts at the student's true skill level — not their enrollment grade. The platform uses a short placement assessment to find where they actually are in each subject, then generates fresh AI questions that adapt in real time: get three right in a row, the level goes up; miss two, it steps back. The difficulty is always just right — never boring, never overwhelming.
There is no ceiling. A Grade 3 student operating at a Grade 8 level in reading keeps getting Grade 8 content. A Grade 10 student who has mastered pre-calculus gets harder problems. The system never runs out of challenge.
When a student joins, they complete a short placement test in each subject. The questions are calibrated to the student's enrolled grade. The results are used to assign a starting skill level (Level 1–20) per subject — independently. A student can be at Level 6 in Math and Level 9 in Reading at the same time.
Each session has 10 questions. Every question is generated fresh by Google Gemini AI — there is no fixed question bank. Questions rotate through 10 different formats per subject (multiple choice, short answer, word problems, writing prompts, comprehension passages) to keep learning varied and prevent pattern-gaming.
The adaptive engine adjusts difficulty in real time:
Grading uses a three-layer system designed to ensure no student is penalized for a correct answer:
Written responses (Writing subject) are graded by Gemini using a rubric covering structure, creativity, grammar, and task completion. Speaking transcripts are graded on clarity, vocabulary, structure, content, and filler word detection.
Every session produces a three-tab report:
Students earn XP for correct answers, with bonus XP for consecutive correct streaks. Stars are awarded for strong session grades (A = 3 stars, B = 2, C = 1). A daily streak counter tracks consistent practice. A coach recommendation on the dashboard suggests which subject to work on next based on days since last session, accuracy, and gap from grade-level expectation.
The Speaking subject is unique. Students receive a topic prompt, think for a moment, then speak into their microphone for 30–60 seconds. The browser's built-in Web Speech API transcribes the speech locally — no audio is sent to any server. Only the transcript text is processed.
Gemini evaluates the transcript and scores five dimensions: Clarity, Vocabulary, Structure, Content, and Length. It also detects filler words (um, uh, like, you know) and generates four specific personalised tips based on what the student actually said — not generic advice.
Topics are age-calibrated: Grade 1–3 students get concrete, personal topics ("Tell me about your favourite animal"). Grade 4–6 get opinion-based prompts. Grade 7+ get debatable, structured argumentation topics.
ClarityGrid Learn is currently free for schools with no per-student license fee. No IT installation required for a pilot. Every student in Grades 2–12 with a Chromebook or any browser-capable device can start immediately. Pricing for district-wide use is being developed — early pilots will be grandfathered.
Schools and districts can deploy ClarityGrid Learn as a supplemental learning tool for:
Per-student session reports give educators insight into actual skill levels, specific knowledge gaps, and learning trajectory — without requiring any district-managed accounts or rostering system.

We believe in transparency about what we do and don't yet meet. If your district requires a standard not listed here, please contact us — we will tell you directly where we stand and what our timeline looks like.
ClarityGrid Learn was built by Shirish Verma, a software engineer at Meta and a parent in Bothell, Washington — within the Northshore School District catchment area. It started as a summer learning tool for his own children, built because no existing platform adapted the way he wanted: truly unlimited levels, five subjects including speaking, and report cards that tell a parent exactly what went wrong and why — not just a score.
ClarityGrid Learn is part of the broader ClarityGrid ecosystem alongside ClarityGrid Career (AI career coaching for professionals) and ClarityGrid Jobs (AI job search tools). The vision is a single platform that walks with a person from their first grade lesson to their first job.
