What we're developing

A short check your school runs, with parent consent, using reading, writing and speaking tasks. It flags students who may need a closer look, and your school's specialist decides what happens next.

Our rules

Screen, never diagnose. Nexus flags a skill area for a closer look. It never labels a student or names a disability.
A specialist decides. Flags go only to the specialists your school names.
Parents first. Your school tells parents what's screened and why, and asks for their consent.
Academic tasks only: reading, writing and oral language.
No camera, no movement or eye tracking, no voiceprints. Speech is scored, then deleted.
Never from student chats. Nexus's study assistant doesn't screen students.
Your school owns the results. They're never used for grades, placement or discipline.
Proven before promised. We'll publish how well it works, including for English learners, before we claim any accuracy.
