What happened

MIT built a platform of 24 AI assistants, one per step of its Disciplined Entrepreneurship course, to guide students through deliverables such as market sizing, product-market fit validation and business plans. The assistants were deployed via APIs inside MIT's own interface alongside the course content.

The StackAI platform was paramount in easily building AI assistants for our students, in a matter of weeks. We were able to transform the students' learning journey ourselves, without the need to code or become an expert in AI.
