Student platform
GroundUp Learn
Learning that starts with what the student actually needs.
Students don’t always struggle because today’s work is too difficult. Sometimes the problem sits underneath it — a concept that was missed, misunderstood or never became secure.
GroundUp Learn is an adaptive learning environment designed to help find those gaps and work through them.
Powered by Stratified Learning’s SAIL framework, GroundUp Learn works alongside each learner to understand where they’re getting stuck, adjust the approach and provide the right level of support — without simply giving them the answer.

More than an AI answer
GroundUp Learn isn’t designed to simply answer questions.
When a learner is struggling, the system can change the explanation, break a problem down, provide another representation, test an underlying concept or move back to prerequisite knowledge that may be causing the difficulty.
Once the learner has the support they need, they’re brought back to the original problem and encouraged to solve it themselves.
The goal isn’t to finish the question. It’s to build understanding.
Meet Belle
A learning companion who knows when to change direction.
Belle works alongside the learner throughout their learning.
She can explain, question, demonstrate, scaffold and encourage — but importantly, she doesn’t have to keep repeating the same explanation when it isn’t working.
GroundUp Learn uses evidence from the learner’s interactions to determine what to try next.
Built around the individual learner
Every learner brings a different combination of knowledge, strengths and gaps. GroundUp Learn can respond accordingly.
Explain it another way
When the first explanation doesn't land, GroundUp can approach the concept differently.
Find what's underneath
When today's problem is being caused by earlier knowledge, learning can move back to strengthen the prerequisite.
Scaffold without taking over
Learners receive enough support to keep moving while remaining responsible for solving the problem.
Return to the original challenge
After support, learners come back to the problem that initially stopped them and demonstrate what they can now do.
Learning progress that means something
GroundUp Learn helps make learning growth visible.
Rather than focusing only on activity, learners can see the concepts they’ve strengthened, gaps they’ve worked through and areas where their understanding is becoming secure.
- Skills strengthened
- Gaps resolved
- Concepts mastered
- Learning progress
Progress becomes something learners can see — and something worth continuing.
Designed for learners, not classrooms on a screen
GroundUp Learn has been designed to feel contemporary and engaging without looking like a children’s educational game.
The experience is clean, visual and easy to navigate, with a learning environment that supports students without overwhelming them.
It is technology designed to help learners think, understand and become more independent.
GroundUp Learn + SAIL
At the centre of GroundUp Learn is the Stratified AI Learning (SAIL) Framework.
SAIL provides the adaptive learning logic that helps GroundUp determine whether a learner needs another explanation, a different strategy, more scaffolding or support with prerequisite knowledge.
That means AI isn’t simply generating more content. It’s responding to evidence of learning.
