Six steps from email to deployed cohort. Standard pilots run one semester. Free at the single-course tier. Multi-year deployments start after the first.
Nothing exotic. The rhythm below is the same one we use every semester — rehearsed, predictable, on your calendar. Total time on your side: ~2 hours across 15 weeks.
Send edu@brainback.chat a note. Program, cohort size, outcomes you want to measure.
We walk you through the product, the stance, and how measurement works. Bring skeptics; they usually leave convinced.
We draft a two-page pilot memo: scope, timeline, measurement, comms. You sign, we onboard.
Students receive account setup during your standard onboarding. Aggregate usage analytics start flowing to your dashboard within 48 hours.
We meet with your team midway through the semester to share what we're seeing and adjust anything that isn't working.
Joint review of the pilot outcomes. If successful, we convert to a multi-year deployment.
You can also write your own. This template is here for the instructors who’d rather skip the wording and get to the reply.
To: institutions@brainback.chat Subject: pilot inquiry — [your department, your institution] Hi, I teach [course + level] at [institution]. I'm interested in running a Brainback pilot next semester with a cohort of ~[N] students. Outcomes I'd like to measure: - [e.g. exam-score lift vs prior semester] - [e.g. DFW rate change] - [e.g. student self-report on effort] Any specific things I should know before our first call? — [your name]
A specific course with clear assessment (exams / graded problem sets / cold-call). A cohort of 15+ students. An instructor willing to name the specific outcome they want to see move. If you don’t have all three, the pilot still works — but the outcomes will be softer.
