Merlyn Origin is a software-based, voice-enabled AI assistant for teacher devices with accompanying hardware remote. Merlyn Origin automates common instructional workflows so teachers can save time, reduce technostress, and focus on the all-important human side of education.
With Merlyn Origin, teachers control their classroom technology and access the world’s information with the power of their voice from anywhere in the classroom, all with the confidence that it’s private, safe, and secure. Beyond optimizing classroom and tool management, Merlyn also offers an array of time-saving features for lesson prep and rubric building.
Unlike AI solutions in search of a problem, Merlyn Origin solves widely recognized burdens on teachers: lack of time, technology-related stress, and poor engagement.
Developed from the ground up to support teaching and learning, Merlyn Origin is built on the first large language model designed specifically for the classroom. Districts can be confident that Merlyn is pulling from vetted educational content and resources, not from the entirety of the internet. Merlyn Origin shows attribution to source material, prioritizes low hallucinations, and allows schools to tap into the transformative power of AI in compliance with FERPA and COPPA.
