About TutorVault

AI Tutoring Grounded in Your Curriculum

We bridge the gap between generic AI and actual education needs. TutorVault delivers Socratic, step-by-step learning strictly bounded to verified study materials — for institutions and individual learners alike.

Our Vision

Why TutorVault Exists

Generic AI tools like ChatGPT are powerful, but they fail in strict academic environments. They hallucinate facts, ignore curriculum boundaries, charge unpredictable per-token fees, and require student email addresses that create compliance headaches.

TutorVault was built to solve this. We provide a dedicated AI tutoring layer that is strictly bounded to your institution's actual textbooks, syllabi, and lecture notes. Every answer comes from verified materials — never from the open internet.

We serve two audiences: B2B institutions (schools, colleges, universities) who need controlled, compliant AI for their students, and B2C individual learners who want to upload their own materials and learn at their own pace.

How It Works

Three Steps to Guided Learning

1

Upload Materials

Teachers upload textbooks, syllabi, lecture notes, or book screenshots. Our OCR/vision pipeline processes everything — even handwritten notes.

2

AI Processes & Indexes

Materials are chunked, embedded, and stored in isolated vector databases. Each institution's data lives in its own schema — zero cross-tenant access.

3

Students Learn

Students ask questions and receive Socratic, step-by-step guidance grounded strictly in their uploaded materials. No hallucinations, no off-topic answers.

Core Principles

What Sets Us Apart

Curriculum-Locked

Every AI response is strictly grounded in your uploaded materials. No hallucinations, no internet browsing, no off-curriculum answers. Teachers control what chapters are active.

Privacy-First

Complete data sovereignty with schema-per-tenant isolation. Student data never trains public models. Hybrid cloud/local deployment keeps sensitive data on your terms.

Predictable Cost

Zero-dollar marginal query costs for institutions. Flat per-student pricing billed per term. No token meters, no surprise bills, no fluctuating cloud charges.

Guided Learning

Socratic method by default. TutorVault doesn't just give answers — it guides students through reasoning steps, building genuine understanding of the material.

Built by Engineers
